  1. What's the current price for gtb 1756? Aiming for 220-240 and already have a gtd downpipe so thinking it's my best bet
  2. Had it with thermostats. Get any hotter as you drive and colder as you slow down?
  3. Did wonder Hahah! It will blow hot if your driving just when you stop it won't! I'm getting coolant flow back into the header tank so wouldn't have thought it was my water pump either?
  4. I've Google it and searched in here and yes there are opinions, but no one has ever reported back as to what the issue was resolved as being. My fabia is always cold when not under load. And isn't really hot hot when driving either but you can put your hand on the blowers and feel them get colder as you slow down to the point of outside temperature blowing in while stationary. I've checked the water pump is pumping I have a good flow back to the header tank. I've had the system bled up as best I could pumped the hoses and had no further air from them I've removed the pipes from the heater matrix and blown though to check for any blockages then refit re bled and no joy None of these have effected it at all. The water isn't very nice at all. Rather brown so will be getting changed Tuesday with proper red coolant and a new stat. Any other culprits for the colour that would benefit a change? And what else is their that would cause my fault? Thanks Sean
  5. So just been out in my pre fl vrs tdi and around 3500-3750 rpm on power there was like a miss? Would have thought the traction cut in but ground dry and no light.happened several times over the journey all the Same rpm. Acts like a slipping clutch quite a severe miss then keeps pulling. Mechanic by trade but dsg is all very new to me.
  6. It does loom like a tornado one. It has an adjustable setting on the box for 10 different modes and I have to say it's made a he'll of a difference xe to the car. Lewwy you are right mind they may aswell have painted it guantanamo orange!
  7. It plugs to rail pressure sensor boost pressure sensor and cam sensor mate
  8. Anyone have any idea what make this is? Bought it used but can't find one like it anywhere
  9. So my 58 dsg octavia didn't have any as standard. I've looked up on Google etc but all I can find is people saying to change the whole wheel. This I understand as you need the paddle mounts but surely there's more involved than just fitting the wheel?
  10. It's fine if half is paid as you return under half's rule but seeing how the values are rock bottom.now compared to.when I bought mine I seem.better to.pay up to half and half it back.than pay it if and sell it now
  11. I have a settlement figure, I'm wanting a value on the car as I'll be selling.it after I've paid it all off. Sorry for any confusion. Well we buy any car offered 7750 which from previous dealings is really like 6500
  12. Basically I'm taking a loan to pay the outstanding cost of my finance on my 58 pre fl vrs and wanted a rough idea what I should be asking for the car as an.idea of negative equity on the situation Race blue vrs Tdi dsg I'm the 2nd owner with full history, including dsg gearbox oil changes, timing belt, warranty replacing of the dsg software and radio Car inside is very very good no wear to seats all very clean has the 6cd changer, maxidot. And jumbo box Mot and tax for a good few months mechanically wants.for nothing 94k miles on the clock Cosmetically the spoiler is pealing and the osf alloy has some kerbing Anymore info people thing may help I can answer would post in selling but won't let me. Thanks
  13. Consider a dsg Tdi vrs. In race blue? Not an estate but there's only 20ltr difference. Full history. Message me for a full spec if interested mate
  14. Had similar problems on a few customers cars with 1.9 check the bottom of the gearbox for and wet patchs ( tell tale of a concentric slave failure) check your fluid level. The take off. For the clutch hydraulics comes from high up in the brake fluid reservoir so slightly low can effect clutch operation and then check for air via the bleed nipple I normally crack them (8mm) and let it draw through itself you will see bubbles if theres air in it. And if theres air but no wet patch on gearbox its the master cylinder as it leaks into itself so very awkward to diagnose
  15. Anyone happen to know the external diametre of the exhaust? Toying with a mufflerectomy this weekend and would save me a week if anyone else knew the measurement so I can order my bits up!
  16. This a plug and play pre fl conversion? Does the cd changer still work?
  17. I get 41 thats it. Live in the stix no flat straight roads
  18. Filter posted? And not anyother parts in particular just wondered what you had! Haha
