You should be able to get the coding changed for the control unit a lot of the airbag control units are the same its just the code that dictates the equipment recognised by the control unit if you know someone with vagcom they should be able to do it i can find out the correct coding if you like!!!

I agree if you didn't sign anything to say you agree with £500 excess then i don't see how they can make you pay it!!!!

Yeah mine did the same thing just book it in to your stealer and they will do it under warranty no problem!!!!

I have got K666 VRS on my Octavia VRS that i got off here from NinjaAlex just bought K66 VRS for my Fabia their both black magic look the nuts parked next to each other on the drive!!!!

My turbo blew a couple of weeks ago i fitted a pd150 unit, Its awesome lots more torque really happy with it cost just over £600 brand new from euro car parts!!! A litttle bit of messing about to fit it but with a little help from Jabba Sport did it myself, its the nuts!!!!!

PD150 turbo now fitted and running sweet with a little bit of help from the guys at Jabbasport, they are Gods, thank you guys, really happy...so is the wife ;-) It goes like stink, cant wait for the re-map...Happy Days

Got it from euro car parts was £640 all in there was a £50 surcharge which i can't get back cos it's not the same unit as mine never mind though pretty happy with that price it is a brand new garret unit not a recon!!!!

I have just brought a pd150 turbo for my fabia vrs from euro car parts i am sure it should be a vnt17 but it has vnt15 on the plate!!! the part number is 721031-5006S i have searched this number and it is a pd150 unit just a bit confused about the vnt15 bit any ideas?!?!?

I think thats what she had in mind didn't pan out that way though!!!! obviously we were on a private road travelling at said speeds!!!!! Was just looking on allards website nice bit of kit that turbo!!

That they are!! but it's much more fun making the wife feel guilty

Well it did alex it may have been on the way out but that is what killed it i was in the codrivers seat!!! It over reved lost all power then came the blue smoke!!!

What turbo do you have on your fabia looks pretty quick!! where can i get one and will i need to remortgage !!!!!!

Lol i wouldn't say that i have slept since then

Cheers baz not looking that way though!! i know those clips are rubbish was a skoda master tech up until december last year it is 100% the turbo now working at a independant garage due to getting fed up with main dealer politics!!!!! fitting it won't be a problem thinking uprated replacement is the way forwards just not sure where to get one!!!! The wife said thanks Gadgetman for backing her up!!! But the fact the dappy bint went from 6th to 3rd at about 80 killed it:rofl:

I am sure!!!! it was like something out of a james bond movie lots of smoke!!!! i mean LOTS oil coming out of the exhaust and everything engine is ok though!!! thank god
