I managed to blow my second turbo on a BKD engine - this was on a A3 i hired as my car was in the bodyshop lol Memoriess.... Definitly change it before it pops as NHN said below as it saves ALOT of headache and the whine will just get louder then go pop! I just kept on driving mine and the...

I had the DSG on my 2.0 TDI A3 and wasnt a fan of it - sucked the fun out of drivng it in my opnion. I doubt I'll own one again. I use to be going round a bend at high-ish revs and it would automatically shift up a gear sending me flying and i missed my clutch pedal. The DSG Auto side was...

As below really - my mates S3 does it as he works away and barely uses it. Take it for a good long blast and it should clear.

Hi fella! Been busy fiddling with the new car but spotted N8KOW the other day on the motorway so decided to jump on here to see what you guys have been up to - Hope alls well! The timing wasnt done with the IMF, it was done when the dealer accidentally stabbed the cambelt with a screwdriver...

My mate who owns a bodyshop has got an 2007 or 2006 (cant remember at all actually) on a CAT C/D which is being repaired. It's a white cab with all the chromed bits blacked out with the buckets, heated seats, xenons, everthing! He's still fixing it but he will be selling it in a few weeks...

Looks the business dude - changed a lot since i seen it on here! Ride heights spot on and looks meeaaaan and aggresive :D Find out where it scrubs as if its the edge of the arches (like mine ue to with fat huffers in it), if you drop down a tyre size in width, it may help!

Mines the same :( ****** gone up a few hundred but hunted and got it at the same price as last year even though i have an extra no claims. But i am young and the Type R isnt the cheapet of cars too insure :(

it will be the DMF or the torsion on the timing may be out if it has been changed...

It's becoming all to common now.... I'm sorry to hear mate. Someone tried breaking into my girlfriends house too and i think it was for the same reason - after her motor. My advise to all owners would be to leave your keys at the top of the stairs - that way if they've come up the stairs...

try holding the lock button and see if that shuts it ? if it does, then its a switch fault.

bodge a paperclip in it and some insulation tape on top :D

I bought my mk4 Golf for £6k, spent £6k heavily modding it and sold it for £6600 around 18 months later. Went for the lot, coilies, bodykit, wheels, recaro leathers, exhaust, ICE, Air Filter, even had it remapped even though it was a 1.4 and fitted a 1.6 head for some extra oomphh!! (around 20...

standards are arond 288mm and i done the upgrade in the past and it was definitly worth it. The standard brakes with a remap and me at the wheel didnt feel up to i but the S3 stuff was the business. S3/LCR (Newer one)/3.2 A3/R32 - Same brakes, diff looks.
