Does it change when you rev it? If I was you I would just stick it in for the mot and see what happens. From experience I have only ever seen 1.8T engined cars fail emissions test when the front probe is completely knackered or the coolant temp sensor is reading the wrong way.

Good work. What paint did you use on your calipers?

Payment sent.

Are they the 2 small ones with the painted bits in the middle? If they are I will take them. Drop me a paypal request and I'll do it tonight.

I've sent you a PM

I think I may have the same issue, I get a blow that sounds like a kid blowing raspberries between 2 and 3000 rpm under acceleration, I was hoping it was the flexi down pipe but that is fine.

My 2000 Octavia SLXi Turbo is on 204,000miles but is currently sat parked up with a knackered gearbox!

Can anyone explain what fuse 15 is for and does? My instruments stopped working and I pulled fuse 15 and they started working again?

I spotted a White Octavia VRS today, driving down the A331 at Aldershot, FJ54 *** Does it belong to anyone on the forum, Is it a genuine WRC, It had white alloys, and all the bumper mouldings were colour matched too but had no WRC stickers.

As said above, it could be a MAF problem, I had a problem that I thought was the turbo going or a split hose, it seemed like it wasn't boosting and was a little bit juddey at low revs when cold, it didnt show anything up on the VCDS so I put a new MAF on and all was fine.

wow, I haven't checked this thread for a while and realised my mileage is alot more than that now, rolled onto 182,000 after a 600mile round trip yesterday!

My SLXI 1.8T clocked 158200 last night! now due its 3rd service in 14 months.

I live near guildford, south east, but willing to travel a bit.

After working non-stop for 3 weeks I have this weekend off and trying to find something good to do with it, the only events I can find this weekend are pugfest and the goodwood breakfast club? Does anybody know of any other events especially any rally action or old skool ford escort action?? Cheers

Opened up a letter from ASDA car insurance this morning expecting to find my insurance had dropped now i'm a year older and have 2 years NCB, what do i get?? A letter explaining they will not renew my insurance because they will no longer insure drivers under 21!!! So i started hunting around the cheapest quote i have had is
