The new owner of the "Silver Beast"

Featured Replies

Afternoon all. I'm Tony, 27, form Washington in the North East. I've just got back from picking up the new toy. I'm sure a lot of you already know it.

First impressions? Baring a couple of niggles, ABS sensor and has an intermittent judder when on full boost (boost leak?), I love it already. The pace of it is brilliant for a 1.8.

Hope to see some of you guys at a meet soon.

ps, I know the spoiler is a bit of a Marmite thing, but I really like it. :thumbup:

Good to know it's staying on the forum. :) I like the spoiler personally. :thumbup:

Aaaaand, we have our first issue. Engine management light on when I went out in it today. Smells like it's running rich but no loss of performance. I'm thinking O2 sensor but can't get the error code read at the minute as all the garages are closed and I don't know anyone with Vagcom or similar.

Try disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes or so. I did with mine (actually the battery went flat because I left the lights on:rofl:) and the EML has stayed off since!
