  1. if you take the power off the idle valve,it will have a little higher rpm then normal,a that is both hot and cold but when cold it´s sluggish when starting in first.
  2. if theres is play then try and thigten them again,if there is play don´t drive it will only destroy something more like the aksel it sits one..
  3. dellert if it´s a 90c termostat,you have then bought the wrong one cause vr6 one is 80c.all other vw are 90c but the vr6 is speciel.u will risk running hot when it´s summer. ps. 90c on the instrument is not the same as termostat being 90c.
  4. i think it´s a t88 turbo,it´s been build just for making wheelspin the intire way down the 402m.
  5. aahhhh mudflaps gone thank good for that. allways loved that color
  6. when you mount the chain gear at the end you have too use a big plyer(tool) and they can leave maks,but that should only be on the rough part,the parts that run where it´s boltet and the lobes if they have marks the they need too be fix(regrindet/trowen out),there was a guy one the that had a supercharger on he was selling a pair off schrick and iam not thinking off vr6pete,some one else.
  7. i have 55km to work so iam clocking up the km(miles). from septemper ill only have 40km each way,since iam buying a flat 40m 3,for only 585tdkr thats around 50-55tpounds. only a few bugs now since rebuild, abs and lambdaprobe. i don´t like having a car and then only using it on the weekends,it´s ment too be driven but 1 and 2 mile journeys i won´t start my car for that that´s just destroying the engine i would buy a scooter for thoose miles. i do admire the show and shine guy´s cars and see there need too not drive it cause off paint chips and soo(maybe that´s why my cars arn´t show car
  8. can only second that bought a new one last summer for around that amount,but dealers in denmark charge 300 pounds.
  9. pump was also changede when it became obd2,sometime around 1996.

    How old are you?

    iam 28,29 may 4. i have speciel incurence true DSB(danish railways). so i pay around 520pounds a year with a 520 pound that i must pay if it get´s stolen ore i bash it.
  11. i bought mine from de and it cost 30-40 euro´s,and it will take about an hour too fitt.
  12. no don´t thing soo,mine still is abit slow some times,and then my abs is showing a strange fault,i will change my ignition swith with in the next 2 weeks,when it´s done ill share my experience.
  13. the intake still goes over the engine,so there will still be heat soak,but thet one fore the 1.8t engine should work but if the price isn´t too high then you could be the try out person he he.
  14. if it smokes there is something wrong,mine did after rebuild,and guese what vw supplied the wrong piston rings,so now 5000euro´s down the road it´s running like it should(vw has not covered any thing yet)only prob now is the lifters were a bad quallety so in a couple of months ille have too get new ones again,and my car been standing first from end dec. too mid jan. and then again from start feb. and 14 days ahead.i now have abs problem and my passeger e-window is also dead.but with 200 miles it´s not run in yet,min 1500-2000 miles idsay.
  15. all rear disc fit both front wheel driven and 4 wheel drive,i know this because i oderet a set for my friends 1.8t,so if you buy a rear hub,and the hub fitts they will go strait on.also all mrk 4 hoses fit all models minus the R32 front.this is what i know/have learnt from vw in flensburg.
  16. kev std. obd1s are 64mm,std. obd2s are 72mm,could you show me a picture where too grind the obd2 TB,cause the one i saw was perfect,you could not grind it at all????????
  17. i bought mine from vw in flensburg,they said they don´t have one listed for the mark.3,so i gave them the number i got true here,and payed a maximum of 80 euro for mine. if there is interest i could order a few and send them over,since you guys pay 175 dollars thats around 154euro´s for them true the stats.

    Respect!!

    most people as sissys,when around 160km/h-200km/h,they all stop racing,but idon´t he he,diesels no matter how chipped they are 200km/h maks,they only diesel in dk that know that goes over 200km/h is my freinds 150 mrk.4 when it had a boks fitted,some idiot in a big merc,thort he could out run it,my buddy just florred it 230-245km/h on the clock he he.
  19. my mate did them once,with the help off af mekanic they had a lift,and a press for help 5-6 hours later they where finished.so it´s not easy but can be done if you have time too do it,and don´t use the car every day.
  20. Dubloke,by flate enough i ment like when the head is skimmed,my blok wasn´t skimmed thats why wee didn´t fitt it it needs too be,cause with a metal gasket it´s diff. to seal it corretli,and the gasket is from a mrk. vr6 a car that is not made for the eu only us that´s why,or have you seen any vr6 mrk. 4 from 2000-2001.the metal gasket raises the comp. to around 11:1 insted off 10:1
  21. if you guys say that its the gearboks mount that helps gearchange the most ill have to take you word for it,cause i would have think the most movment the will cause the bad gearchange is the front one????mine helped a fair bit cause it was bad before a got it in,after what kevhaywire said i may need a rear one,i can see the point in it,any one got the number for the golf2/3 diesel solid gearboks mount???
