Alright folks, just had two near full days at The Turbo Unit, a relatively new garage who specialize in Turbo's (its near Tamworth in Fazeley). Ive came away with a car which to be honest, I never expected it was capable of! Ben and Lee are cracking guys, massively helpful and a huge laugh...

Hi all, I'm getting very annoyed now! I had an issue where my brakes got progressively spongyer over a period of a few weeks, so i got the system bled and some new braided lines. After it did it again I asked my garage what else it could be and he said the only thing it could be was the...

Hi guys, my master cylinder is shot so ive managed to pick up a brand new genuine part from Seat (after 5 phone calls between different dealers/TPS/GSF etc) for £140 inc VAT, where the most expensive was £200 inc VAT. Now, I also did a bit of phoning around to get a quote for garages to fit it...

Hi guys, I had the cam belt changed by Murran (John) off the forum last saturday, everything went fine, no cam belt errors at all, when I went to the car the next day I got an engine light on... so I drove straight over to my friends to grab his scanner and found fault "p0340 - Camshaft position...

Hi all, could anyone get me the latest revision part number of the n75 valve for an AUM, so i can walk into tps on Monday and simply grab/order what I need ? I'm not sure also on the best n75 type for my car (n75j etc) Thanks a lot

Hi guys, getting bits ready for a remap so im looking for a TIP and dp. I'm looking at the forge TIP but im not sure if there's anything better for the lowly k03s. On a side note, is doing the sai delete and n249 bypass worth doing/what does it do exactly I still don't fully understand after...

I'm just curious to know if there are any other signs of the clutch on its way out on these cars? I don't have any slip or if I do its not noticeable, but since I've had the car the clutch pedal has gotten a lot stiffer and ive got to push it down further to change gear as it grinds if I change...

Evening, just took my car through the car wash (don't normally use them but seeing family later and didn't have time to do it myself) anyways, there was a bit of a bump half way through and my abs/esp lights both came on. Checked in the car wash for any evidence of something pulled off but found...

Evening all, Oh how time flys when your working on your car! done a few clean up jobs today interior etc, next minute, got a friend popping over offering me a headlight restoration kit for free... so obviously i didnt refuse! Now, ive only done one pass on each light so far, so they are not...

Hi all, yet another issue I need to address. After letting my eibach springs settle for over 1k miles ive just noticed that the car is sitting about 5mm lower on the drivers side rear than than the passenger side rear. Both springs were seated properly and identical to each other when i...

Sat at the lights on the new Rugby bypass when a guy (must have been 60+) in the most awful snot green vw scirocco pulled up along side me.. I thought "I'm not getting stuck behind this doner" but i then realised he was revving his engine up, obviously thinking he was just unaware, i floor it...

Hi all, firstly I'd like to say I've got no proof about it being my neighbours fault for this, but I think that his previous track record for drunken driving and nocking people's fences down when he's trying to negotiate his drive way speaks for its self. Anyways, my car park space is opposite...

Hi, I've been on the forum for quite some time now and I've done quite a bit of work on the car since buying it a few months ago. When I bought it the car had covered 108k and its just ticked over 115k tonight. My 1.8t AUM when i first got it (only one pic as i was paying more attention to...

Evening all, I've just had a friend on the phone saying he's talked to a custom exhaust guy about getting a discount on getting a system for both of our cars, in regards to these 1.8t engines ive done some reading that to make a difference with an exhaust system I'd need to get a bigger bore...

Since the beginning of this month TPS have "**stopped**" serving non trade customers, I called them today and asked about it, apparently if you already have an account or purchased from them recently they will pull strings and put it through as a cash trade sale... I'm not 100% on whether this...

Hi, Sorry for the long title xD! I'm replacing my OEM springs tomorrow for some eibach prokit springs, unfortunately I cannot afford to replace the dampers at this moment in time, which I know isnt good but they will be replaced in the near future! On removal of the old springs I am guessing...

I've just ordered some eibach lowering springs but they won't be fitted untill next weekend... If anyone has a 30/35mm drop on an a3 or s3 can you post some pics!? I'm a bit impatient and cant wait to see. Also if you have spacers on this set up can you post the amount its spaced by? Thanks in...

Evening all, I'm looking in to getting some 35mm drop springs tonight, I was Idealy wanting some eibach prokit but if anyone can recommend others for sub £150 ill look in to them. I'm staying with my original dampers for now since I'm skint (only reason I'm getting them now is my rear spring...

Just looking for a bit of advice really, I'm a bit tired of the black plastic trim around the bottom of my front and back bumpers / sideskirts which audi decided was to much effort to colour code... W*****s in my opinion xD. So, is it easy enough for a body shop to spray these? And any idea...

For those that haven't read my previous thread on my boost issues, unplugging the N75 seems to negate the problems. I've got it booked in to rtech in 3 weeks for diagnostics. My question is... Can I leave my n75 unplugged for the next 3 weeks, or is it bad to leave it unplugged for that long...
