No prob hope it helps

Hello matey peeps, i just got a jetex induction kit as the lad that had my vr before me had ripped out most of the air box before i got it so needed to get one, ok so it didn't cost the earth to buy but it certainly does the job and the noise from it is just about the right level
-
Now that's a different set up to mine i just replaced the bit of pipe which appears to be under your main air pipe,my vr has an alloy main air intake pipe with a short piece of goes going to the plastic housing for the sensor and i just replaced the short bit between the alloy intake pipe and the sensor. don't worry about it im new to alot of this vr stuff aswel i can just help when.I've done the job myself:-P hope you manage to get it sorted though
-
Russj249 thanks for the tip ill remember that for the future :-)
-
Sedge, yep i just replaced that bit of pipe between the throttle body and the sensor plug, vr still running fine ;-)
-
Nice car mate
-
Hello again sedge i just got a bit of pipe from a local car parts supplier and put it on and it seems to be doing the job but if you want to replace it with a proper bit of hose then tour might have to go to vw or a decent vehicle dismantler

Paceo, i can't tell you how much im gettin to a full tank as i don't usually fill it i just put in what n when i need as i debt like giving the government any more than i have to as they're robbing b***ards but i put £30 in the other day and im using it to get to work which in total for a week is around 130 miles so ill let you know when i need to fill again
-
Sedge, the 30mm pipe your on about is the one i had that was split and since replacing it my vr has improved greatly but im not an expert on these cars as this is my first one and I've not had it for long, I've also changed my spark plugs since and its running great at the moment but im thinking about a new set of plug leads aswel as im not overly confident with the ones on the car as the number 5 one doesn't clip to the plug right and occasionally pops off. i hope you find your problem and get it sorted
-
on a similar sort of question, im thinking of changing the wheels on my vr but im thinking on 17's but will they fit ok without rubbing the arches?

Bring back national service, i did 12 years in the armed forces and it never did me any harm, also the goverment should also give the police the right to use force, it works in other countries when the shit hits the fan. i mean once a few rubber bullets have been fired off then im sure these aholes will think twice about carrying on with their shite!!
-
Its ok folks i found the one that comes with the car so all is well now
-
L3 onp, well I've been driving my vr for the past 2 days and now that the leeky hose has been sorted my fuel consumption has improved so at a guess your problem may also be with the airflow system, hope you manage to get it sorted
-
nice car, liking the colour it suits it, hopefully get my golf looking that good some day :-)
-
Ok mate thanks for that ill get onto gsf just now
-
Ok so can someone out there tell me is there a tool for getting the spark plug leads back on, i changed my plugs yesterday and put the.leads back on but on my way home 2 come off and i can't get my fingers down to get the leads on the plugs properly. any advice would be grateful thanks
-
Well the pipe i found that was split was on the air flow system i havnt really driven it since sorting the problem so i can't say if my fuel consumption has improved any but ill let you know when i know but on the short drive i took it for yesterday the vr is defo running better Hope you solve your problem mate if i think of anything else ill let you know
-
Mental id give that a try on my gsxr but i think id fail massively :-P
-
Now that's a nice vr mate
-
Hello mate thanks for the reply to my post, good to know that they idle low mine also sits at 500rpm when she's warm as for the flat spot I've cured that, after a good look round when i was fitting my induction kit yesterday i found a split hose coming from the air box replaced that and all seems fine now. thanks again
-
Ok so im new to this vr6 stuff having just bought my first one, a mk3 and i have to say loving this car and looking forward to making a few changes although i havnt decided what yet;-) having a couple of small seething problems though i have a flat spot at around 4000 rpm and it idles low would that have anything to do with it, any help would be appreciated thanks
-
