i think we all know what the best part of that car is eh. must go well though to be fair. i think the rs turbo's only weigh 900kg's.
-
don't know if this would help with fitting. http://www.houseofthud.com/cartech/abspump/ABSProcedure.html

have seen it done on a f*rd but it was used the other way round with the supercharger used to spool up the turbo.bit like the golf gt. it worked but the pipework under the bonnet was immense. how much power do you want?!!
-
does it only happen at low revs. if so i had the same problem. turned out to be ht leads. easy fix.
-
wierd. i put a new one on mine about 5 months ago because it leaked and sounded rough. comes on when ignition is switched on and goes off when ignition is switched off except if fans are on, then it goes off when the fans go off. i thought this is what was meant to happen to stop hotspots inside the head when the coolant is hot??? :-|

i think the vr's traction control takes over until you're doing 25 mph

thats GOOD. mines dropped from 27ish to 17. and its standard. prob just me giving my new tyres some stress testing. :-p -
my abs light is doing this at the mo.did it 3 years ago too. had 2 of the sensors changed then an independant garage diagnosed abs ecu. changed that. problem solved. till now. think i'll bung a secondhand one on myself. i'm sorry mate but i think you're looking at a big bill.
-
hi guys.need to replace the abs module on the old mobile but as you guys probably know i need to disconnect some brake lines to do so. any tips to bleed the brakes out again. the last car i bled out was my old xr2 which was only just advanced enough to use disks on the front so the task looks rather daunting!! cheers in advance.
-
hi guys. seeing as my abs ecu is completely tossed(can i say that?) i was wandering how hard they were to fit yourself as the last one cost me the best part of 400 beer tokens to get supplied and fitted. also are all mk3 golf abs systems the same or has the vr got an uprated one. ie, can i rob an ecu off a gti? cheers in advance.
-
mines doing this now. did it before about 2 yaers ago. turned out to be abs ecu. £500 to fix. nice. :S
-
have been looking at the group buy on the schrick vgi. just wondered if i would need to remap my car after fittng.also if i opt for a set of cams later on will it need mapping again or is it better to do it all at once? cheers.
-
i think this chap must be getting pissed off with people telling him hes wrong. never mind. lets keep the emails going. the helmet deserves it.
-
as antera309 said the install is quite smart. obviously not designed or fitted by the owner going by the rest of the heap. what a load of old wonk.

guppers replied to Luke's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
my vr had this problem. took it to stealers to put on vagcom. came back as faulty sensor. was it fook. ended up being abs ecu. lovely. loads of cash.. good luck with it mate -
nah the type s has only got 110 bhp. not sure of engine size though.
-
oh dear :S
-
er....... group buy. might need a few for this one though eh?!!!
-
torque heaven!!
-
looks clean mate. good to see its got mudflaps. may look a bit anal but it stops the stonechips below the bumpstrip. mines peppered. welcome to vr ownership.
-
my vr has done that twice. parked up after some cainage and applied handbrake. all hunkydory. about 10 minutes later when the brakes have cooled down off it went down the road. thank christ i was there at the time and after a frantic moment with my remote got in and stopped it. easy done.
