Hi people i currently own a a3 1.8T mapped to 225 bhp at the engine and fancy a change of car so ime going to get myself a mk1 225 tt and would like to know of some mods i can do to it just to make it a little different from all the ones i see on the road everyday.
What kind of remaps have any...
thanks for the replys people at leat i know it should be possible to do. still my mum might not buy the car from me as yet so might not need putting back to standar i can use it as a selling point for when i come to sell it.
Ime toying with the idea of selling my car and upgrading to an s3 and my mum is interested in buying my car from me.
However this is where the subject title comes into it can the car be put back to standard or tuned down a bit so its not so aggresive as she wouldnt want as mush power as it...
the car is a 2000 X AUM 1.8T with 73K on the clock and full ASH.
The car was completely factory standard when the map was done and like i said i knowtised the throttle was different as soon as i got in the car to drive it away but i just fort it was me who needed to get used to it.
A few...
ive taken the N75J valve off now and cant say ive knowtised any difference from it.
I found out how to do a throttle body alignment so i done that without the sprintbooster and then with the sprintbooster and after driving the car after each calibration it was clear that the throttle was much...
no not yet i havn't got round to it. ill take them off tomorow before i do the throttle body alignment then run the car around a little.
One weird thing i did knowtise was when u scan the engine alone and click on basic settings then goto channel 060 which is the throttle body settings and...
Well i got my vag-com lead through and after some messing around for half hour of so i managed to get it working and link to the car. so i do an auto scan and i get the folloing 2 fault codes.

As the story goes i had my car mapped by jabba sport last august and to cut a long story short ive not been 100% happy with it from day 1.
There are a range of problems firstly when accelerating at half throttle the car still boosts up fully then shuts of and on causing a nasty jerky drive...
been looking about for a while for an s3 bumper and i have managed to find one. Ive looked through various posts on here but found no propper answers to if they fit or not.
i am aware that s3's have wider rear arches but will the s3 bumper line upto my rear arches ok with out any...
havnt fort of that as i wouldnt of fort the coolant sensor would cause these problems..........but now u say about it the coolant sensor may be a little odd as i can drive my car around for ages and the needle very rarely gets 90c its more around the 80c mark whereas i know for a certainty that...
cleaned the throttle body about 2 or 3 months back but will check just incase its dirty again.
Plugs were new about 6 months back and they were bosch super 4's.
Knowtised that when i first start my car in the mornings that its started to sound spluttery and when you come to pull away at say 1500rpm if u cruise down the road at them revs in 2nd gear for example the car jumps around like mad spluttering like mad.
But once the car has warmed up the...
thanks poeple ive read through a few prevous threadas now an it seems to be a commen problem.....o well this will give me somthing to do over the weekend u guess.
Sounds to me like another commen coil pack failure......only way to tell which 1 or 1's is it is to link to car to vag com.
Or buy a coil pack hoping its only 1 thats gone and simply do a process of illimination. Very easy job to do yourself aswell.
also do you have any fault light on the...
My rear washer aint worked for a long time now so i brought a repair kit from vagparts.com and fitted it with no luck. It stopped working shortly after i got the car and it was just a simple blockage which i cleared with an airline.
However this time round i disconnected the pipe that takes...
