It's AGU so I presume it's 150bhp. I have had one for 4 years and it was never really quick. I changed all hoses, N75, Diverter valve, ignition amplifier. Cleaned sump. Pretty much spent 2 grand on it over time. It's currently in my Garage on sorn. I replaced it with a 2010 Golf mk6 2.0 tdi...

I cant believe that they (VAG) would allow it to ruin the reputation by not recalling the cars. They have in South Korea and the states until model 2013. It's seems they are happy to sell cars that knowingly will fail. Maybe they just don't want them lasting past 100k to sell more new cars. I...

Just an update as I hate to read threads not to find out what happened. So.. just got off the phone to the dealer. The car HAS suffered oil pump failure and is uneconomical to repair. They said it's needs in excess of £6000 to repair. They have offered me a 2011 Golf gt td for a reduced price...

I asked they said some CBAB are 77mm and also told me i shouldn't listen to scare stories because a few out of millions have had a failure. The bad news is my brother has a 58 plate and I need to break it to him.

Hi, after reading the recent comments and having just spoke with and been to the dealer, I have some things to report. The car is 60 plate produced in September 2010. Earlier today the dealer called me to say it was 100% the starter that had jammed. I said I would accept the car back only if the...

Update Dealer just called car is displaying no fault codes. The starter has jammed. They said they will change starter today and update me. Sounds like 1st steps to diagnosing oil pump failure. On a CR engine God damn my life.

Here's hoping it's good news and just a gremlin because I really like the car. What would the tapping noise be before it shut down? It's sounded metallic!

Thanks, the 1st thing I did was check the timing belt and it seemed fine.

Engine code is CBAB if that's any use? Thanks again.

I can get the engine code shortly as the log book is in my partners car she has gone to work and will be back in an hour. No oil warning at all. I have a 1.8t audi and am well aware of the problems of oil light and had it happen and switched off immediately and saved the car. Literally was tap -...

Hi everyone I just today purchased a 2010 2.0 tdi cr engine estate. The car has 93,000 miles. I collected the car which ran fine no issues, travelled 5 miles and heard a tapping noise as I approached a junction. I stopped at the junction and as I set off the car stalled? It would not crank over...

It feels as though I have too much castor, if I turn at speed like lane to lane it's feels fine. When I turn at a junction it feels as if the steering goes very light at a certain point (about 1/3 of a rotation) and the car just feels like its using too much lock. I changed the suspension this...

Thanks, so there is no way it could be 10mm out of place then?

The columns are the same, the racks are the same for TT, cupra R, and s3. ( fast rack)

I bought it from a refurb company in Bradford, £120 genuine rack just reconditioned as I couldn't afford to pay £400 for a new one. The uj is steel and can go stiff but I haven't seen one go slack (garage diagnosed my car as column too but I took it my brother who is a jag tech and he said rack...

I don't know how far these can be out but I took mine off and bow the car doesn't feel right even after alignment, how can the subframe set up to factory? Does anyone know a garage near leeds that will be able to align the subframe?

It may be the steering rack. I just changed mine because I had 2 inch deadzone and thought it was the column.

As its mk1, i presume it's AGU engine. It will be a Maf, N75 valve, or Ignition amplifier i had to buy all 3 over time.

This happened to me, the engine mount on the passenger side was shot to bits. Look under the airbox I had to jack the engine up because it had tilted backward.

Hi I have been for 18 months restoring a 1998 a3 8l 1.8t it's a Labour of love rather than a full out restoration. The steering rack started leaking and I had a huge deadzone, I removed the rack from a seat Leon 1.8t (same part number) the seat drove fine no issues with steering but it failed...
