  1. New and unused Powerflex 24 mm bushes, Octavia 1Z fitment. The package has been opened, so will show some signs of ripping etc but these have never been fitted Part number: PFF85-503-24 £25 delivered or £20 collected (Bridgend S.Wales)
  2. Brand new, unopened Febi front bump stops Part number 23590. £10 delivered, £8 collected (Bridgend S.Wales)
  3. Similar setup to mine, I would ensure you are now running on 5w40 oil (better for mildy tuned engines)- I use VW Quantum Bare minimum I would also have your DV checked, and the PCV too If you want to push the boat out even more, an inlet valve decarbon would ensure you're getting maximum power with your setup. Myself personally, I have done all the above plus fitted the NGK Iridum plugs, Audi R8 coilpacks and removed the pre-cat Hope this helps :-)
  4. HI Willgeenty, I have the same car (2008 2.0TFSI) with similar mileage and also remapped to 250BHP, I am however unaware of those procedures you have mentioned ....but for me I have deleted the PCV (replaced with a Forge partial delete kit) and upgraded the DV to the GFB DV+ to eliminate these common points of failure. I would recommend an injector service and also have the inlet valves and intake manifold manually cleaned. This should restore any lost power I would have thought
  5. I want to replace mine as well...the only place I have seen is through ebay direct from the manufacturer in Australia and the postage is enough to put me off for now
  6. Hope you don't mind me commenting, But I have seen some recent posts on Facebook relating to shoddy craftsman-ship with Brembo disks. Some people even suspecting there are fakes being supplied to motor factors. Personally I have used MTEC disks and Redstuff pads and have found them to be excellent. Also IIRC, the rear disks can come in 2 size variants, so it is worthwhile getting outside with a ruler and double checking before ordering
  7. I'll start by saying I know very little about VCDS, so please forgive my ignorance! My car, after having it's inlet manifold and inlet valves cleaned is presenting me with two error codes (used my Carista app) P3193 and P1098, I believe my first port of call would be to set the module to its Basic Settings? My local indie garage has advised me he has done this, but the codes keep re appearing. His device is a Snap-on reader/ modifyer however and I don't believe this will necessarily do the same things as VCDS. I would like to know your thoughts folks, do you think this would be sufficient? Also, does anyone know of anywhere/ anyone in South Wales that could carry out this task? Thanks in advance
