    06A 133 789 - Do I have to go to the main stealers?

    Guys I have been searching a boost leak and I found a couple of split hoses under the inlet manifold! I am aware that I could just delete the PCV and fit a catch can, but in this instance I would rather just replace this set of hoses, but is the Main Stealers the only place to buy this as paying...

    Advice please on subwoofer replacement/upgrade & amp requirements

    I think it also depends on what your budget is aswell. If you are looking for a quality stealth install then from the positive comments on this forum the AndyMac solution is a good one. I considered the JL Audio 6.5 kit, but I could not justify the spend due to the amount of time I use my car...

    How use VAGCOM/VCDS to test for boost & vac leaks

    Another hole in the sump - Shallow sump option or engine risers?

    Can you remember where you got the spacers from as I have only found 40mm ones, and that is a step too far as I think it will cause issues with the downpipe & Prop Thanks again Ian

    Another hole in the sump - Shallow sump option or engine risers?

    Thanks for the advice guys, serious food for thought! Could new engine mounts aid the situation as Ive never changed them in the 5 plus years I've owned it.

    Hi Guys Like most of us with lowered cars we occasionally scraped the bottom of our sumps on speed humps, but on this occasion a rock hidden in some snow in North wales was the culprit. So my questions is should I go for the shallow sump that is for sale at Awesome GTI or 10mm engine risers...

    Milltek resonated or non-resonated?

    I went non resonated and was disappointed at how quiet it was and I am 42, so I ended up fitting a Relentless downpipe and that did make the car sound a bit more meaty with out being boomy inside! Sadly for me it was never going to sound as good as my old VR6, god I miss having that V6 sound...
