    Trackrod ends. My car keeps eating them

    not lowered. They are oem parts and i have the same one fitted on the passenger side. It's doing my head in, would it be caused by the tracking being out or over tightening the nut on the top? or could it be something to do with other worn parts?

    I have been searching for a new diesel ideally quattro s-line edition. I came across this on autotrader and it seems a bargain. I know its a cat d but that doesn't mean its a dog. I have phoned them up and asked about the damage and the guy said it was just panel damage. What do you think? Is...

    Boost leak + mr muscle turbo clean

    If the op has checked for boost leaks and made sure all the pipe work is in good nick (no splits or cracks) then chances are it is going to the vanes in the turbo jamming and causing either an overboost or underboost. My tdi suffered with this something chronic. If you take of the egr valve...

    Boost leak + mr muscle turbo clean

    Mr muscle is fine to use on the turbo, its a decoking agent. If you do use it make sure it only goes into the exhaust side of the turbo and not onto any aluminium parts as it will eat them. easiest way to do it is feed some silicon tube down the egr pipe and into the turbo the squirt the mr...

    abs fault

    Have you had it scanned for faults? I had a similar issue and the problem turned out to be a wheel speed sensor fault. A much cheaper fix than a new abs pump

    No wiper fluid out of the rear wiper?

    The pipe work leading to the washer had become disconnected. Take the boot trim and check the one connected to the motor first, if it's not that one is behind the sub enclosure.
