  1. Well, I'm getting some parts from tps and gonna do another oil change and change the sump. I was speaking to a mechanic and he said it could the the crank shaft sensor which is causing the problems? nah not going to give up yet, the support on here has been immense, going to crack on, thanks
  2. @Bungy, not gonna give up yet getting new oil sump and change the oil and coolant @ez_101, gonna get the tool to do that, been busy at work but got a 4 day weekend to do some bits,
  3. @Antihero1981 last oil change was in july and I've only done about 500 miles, cant test head gasket as it is not on the road yet @Madrocker , service was done using tps stuff, as for short runs maybe @richievr, the car drives fine, it is losing oil but thats down to valve guide seals that need to be replaced @bungy, yeah it s losing coolant but not no residue in the expansion tank @drew, its bloody hard when you keep spending money, for it to go wrong, running out of ideas, only other option is buy another one :-p
  4. Hi guys, girls Need some help got this foam stuff on dip stick, any ideas? Was told by someone that it might be gasket failure, engine runs, but smokey when cold. Dont know if this is a factor, but I have not driven it properly since september. Any help much appreciated Rich
  5. you might wanna check your bushes on the wish bones as well, I had a similar problem, fitted poly bushes knocking had stopped.
  6. I thought the original wheels for the VR was BBS, I have these on a 92 J reg and a spare set
  7. Stunning, got my vote as well.
  8. Done a search on here and found out that I need twist leds to change the dash lights. does anyone know if these are the ones? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/10x-RED-509T-T5-TWIST-LOCK-509-T-LED-DASH-BULBS-UK-/370258397748?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM Rich

  10. Posi - Just got my last pay better than I thought, The Prodigy tomorrow :-d Negi - No job, cant sort the body work out
  11. C2 Thanks, nice and short. :-d Tony, thanks again, car is driving so much better Rich
  12. As the title says, I need a remap for my mistress and was wondering wheres the best place to go and a rough price as I've just lost my job so price is a issue. Spoke to Sanspeed and they have said 350. Any other places you guys recommend? Thanks Rich
  13. Yeah, thats a crank case breather filter, stops the oil returning to the inlet mani. I bought one the other day, just trying to figure out what to use to block inlet pipe with.
  14. kool, just wondering? I took off the pipe running to the tb and there was a load of oil in it and the the sensor connected to it was the wrong way round 8-)
  15. Can I block it, and If I can what problems does it cause? Is it meant to have the wire spiral thing in it? Thanks Rich
  16. If I can get the engine rebuild done in time, then I will come. It will be good to meet you guys and put some faces to names. So you can put me down as well. :-d
  17. Be careful you dont damage it, I just bought a new one for my 92 odb1 from VW £124, and they only have 4 left in the factory, meaning 4 left in the country.
  18. yeah' date=' the same odb1 aaa loom and ecu but with the abv engine. Ok, I wil take it off in a bit and have a look. Thanks My only concern was, is the abv sensor different from the aaa because of the ecu's and how it reads it.
  19. Two quick ones, I have a 92 golf with a rado abv engine running on the 2.8 ecu. Do I go with the 2.9 or 2.8 sensor or are they the same? (hope that makes sense *-) ) Secondly, does anyone have the part numbers cant find it on etka online and the stealers want an exact code or chassis number and my chassis is still showing aaa engine code Thanks Rich
  20. It sounds awesome, loud as well, every time you put your foot down. Its when you get above 3000 rpm and give it some everyone turns their heads. Well worth it. Just watch your fuel gauge tho, that sound is addictive
  21. call me stupid, but I cant find a replacement for the pro ram air, anybody know where to get one or do I replace the whole thing? Picture is a bit bad but I think you can just about see it. Rich
  22. I'm liking it £4400 for stage 1, what will be the price for stage 2? And what is the turn around time? Seriously interested in this, roll on 16 hour work shifts and overtime :-p
