    hi, welcome to the forum....

    i also made the silly mistake for selling my VR for a mk4 initially. bought a mk4 turbo and soon sold it to buy another VR,,, then made the same mistake to buy a mk4 V5 and then bought another VR..... this time i had the sell the VR as the maint. was killing me... now i have an audi A3 turbo which has been re-mapped to 195 bhp. cant say im disappointed yet but DAMN i miss the 6 pot roar and the cult looks!!! i still keep an eye out for one though.. you never know!

    Looks really nice Baz. Must be weird going 'back' from a V6' date=' you must miss the sound soooo much! But then again, i guess you've got the turbo whoooshhh to make up for it (a bit, anyway!)

    [/quote']

    a bit anyway lolololol,

    it has a diverter valve fitted so you can hear the hissing a bit more lol, to be honest it aint disappointing, the only thing i miss is the 6 pot roar other than that it pulls quite well.... oh and the fact that you cant stroll in 2nd gear and then move off without juddering lol

    hey guys,

    thanks for the comments, keep em coming lol,

    VR mofo i thought that too but was in a bit of a rush so admin please move to correct section.

    is a bit tough to keep clean, a good wash only looks good for a day - leathers are amazingly comfortable and overall the car is serving me great.

    Purple highline: did you get an R32 yet? i think they look stunning and sound awesome compared to an S3, and as you say cant beat the 6 pot engine.

    .... would still love to buy a 4th VR6 if funds permitted as a weekend car!!! they look the part and sound brilliant!

    Long time no speak lol,

    Hows all doing?? just thought id pop in and say hi and show all my new car that i bought after sorting out the business etc:

    It is an audi A3 1.8T with scrumptious heated leathers (they heat up really well), not really a match to a VR but far superior in build quality and overall drive. Has been remapped to 195 bhp and kicked the 180bhp GTI golf off the road last weekend lol

    lemme know what you guys think and hope im still allowed on this beast forum lol

  14. evaporator replacement

    in General Chat

    Posted

    hi dellert, i had the system regassed and the vw specialist did a leak test using UV light etc and found a leak in a few places, now that all the leaks have gone, he noticed a leak coming from under the car and said its where the drain hole or something where the evaporator sits near the matrix.

    was quoted 300 pounds labour to replace.

    hey guys,

    just wanted to know how hard/easy it is to change the air con evaporator on the VR6, is it a DIY jobbie? i heard the whole dash has to come out.

    please advise as mine is leaking gas from evaporator and needs replacing.

    cheers

  20. Crazy Temperature Needle??

    in Engine Maintenance and Problems

    Posted

    hey guys,

    had a new water pump and temperature sensor/switch fitted last week.

    now what happens is that the temperature switch sits at 70 degrees when the car is turned off and about 110 degrees when the car is on (never sees 0)

    what can i do to re-align the needles or is there something wrong with the switch? disconnecting the switch does not allow the needle to drop when car is off.

  22. New London Speed Cameras

    in General Chat

    Posted

    they just wont stop will they? cameras in london are a common site, and to be honest they are bloody dangerous, along the north circular at 50 mph you can be behind a car strolling along and all of a sudden the person in front will slam their brakes and slow down to 30 mph (y i do not know..... maybe due to fear) this can cause an accident!

    the new style cameras are also scattered along the a406 heading towards ilford from walthamstow so beware!!

    fit polo rear handles to the front of your car, looks smart and no keyhole to faff over,

    MAF can be obtained from a powerseller on ebay who supplies bosch parts, or euro car parts. if it is a bit buggered, clean it with electrical contact cleaner first and see if this cures it (if it works then it will cost you 2.49 for cleaner at maplins)

    worth a shot mate. keys and barrell can be obtained from euro car parts too (i think)
