Can't fault the 5.5 for strength...... will have another in a heartbeat

Hit by a drunken tw4t, cars a write off. All OK tho, so thats a miracle in itself ( thanx for asking )


Gonna have some parts for sale soon I think the pass side rear light is OK

Almost certain that these type of engines DO use oil but not sure as to what amount over miles covered. Not sure where you got that information from, but I have to say in my experience it is wrong. I change my oil in my 130PD AVF engine every 5,000 miles and if it has used 1mm on the dipstick I wou...

I won't happen here in the UK, so i would not worry...... I'm not ;)

It's not a Passat, but my dad had his Seat Toledo 2.0 tdi DSG remapped at Awesome a couple of months ago.... smokes a wee bit more when you really go for it, but what's new goes like the clappers now though

How's that

Anyone had a go ? I'm looking booking a couple of tandem jumps for me and the missus ?

Is it as scary as it seems ( in my head )

bosch pads with 288 discs. never had any brake fade, even with a fully loaded car and a good blast down the A39 ? from The M5 to Minehead.... Just check you havent got cheapo aftermarket discount ones on before spending the wonga on green/red stuff. Even with my re-map, i have never had any probs, e...

Standard fit Bosch pads..... can't fault them really. If you are getting brake fade .......

On the M60 near Stockport there are some permanent average speed ( 50 mph )cameras at the Bredbury exit, round the corners ( that tbh are a bit severe for a motorway ).....but my point is... if the cameras are set for 50 mph ? just do 50 mph ????? :-? no point getting points on yer licence to save 5...

Had a look at this, as mine is doing it too.... after a quick look at GSF it seems that the rubber top mount ( approx 11 quid ) has a bearing under it ( approx 13 quid ) is the click/clack the bearing ? or is it best to replace mount and bearing ? http://www.gsfcarparts.com/parts/steering-suspension...

same here, and the bloke came out 2 weeks later to re-do my rear window cos i was not happy about it...... seems the little black dots round the edges are a bit of a mare..... all sorted now

As above.

10 secs to 60 sounds about right.............. but the shove from 50-70 should give a big clue

I have a pd100 and it was a snail before i had it re-mapped.

As title, what do you guys think my car is worth, as due to family circumstances, it might be time for me to sell. It's a 2004 Tdi 100 Highline re mapped by More BHP to 137 ish I'm the second owner, and it has a full service history ( vw apart from one )..... back windows are tinted, and i have 2 se...
