  11. okay ... i thing this question should be in the tuning forum... but i will ask it here, well about ECU upgrade .. i have a 1.8T model 2000 and i would like to tune it since long time but since mine is auto gearbox .... i am not sure will it be risky or not to tune it to less than 200bhp !!!:confused: :confused:
  12. well thanks guys .... just for your information DGW the time belt here usually works for 130k~140k km due to the very high temprture here, and cuts off "acording to the dealer words" which happened with a lot of customer who they didnt know that they have to change it and they never go to the dealer after they bay the car ... unless their car is broken ....
  13. i went to the dealer today, i told him to change the timing belt and water pump and the two tensioners, and to check that noise, which after that he discovers it is from the alternator belt tensioner, and i am end up with a new tensioner and belt too, total job will cost 380 Euro :mad: :drive1:
  14. Not the usuall ticking sound this one is seems a problem????:confused:
