Thanks, ill check hoses etc :)

Any ideas greatly appreciated. Intermittent limp mode, flashing glow plug light, loss of boost then sudden boost, strange noise from intake near front when engine stopped. Address 01: Engine Labels: 03G-906-018-BRD.clb Control Module Part Number: 03G 906 018 AQ HW: 03G...

ehh, yeah :/

48 combined, the pd's arent the most economical but react very well to a good service, oil + filter, air filter + fuel filter, be thankful its not a 16valve 2.0tdi, what with the DPF and EGR fekkin up the economy youd be lucky to see mid 40's mpg, better off with a gasser

sorry, my camera had died..i would try to get in there with my phone to take a pic but it would mean dismantling the air intake..its under there though, just go have a look :)

heres a pic of it, its buried down behind the o/s headlight, you should be able to see it ill take another picture of mine in situ tonight

the solenoid valve behind the o/s headlight that controls the EGR valve gets drowned in water and causes the hesitation your experiencing.. you may be able to get at it when your cars running well, i.e when its dry, and cover it up with something

dont do it..and learn to spell

Mazda RX8, no doubt

rear gearbox mount maybe, they tend to go soft along with the torque arm bush at the front of the engine, neither are expensive or difficult to replace. Does the voltage increase if you raise rpm? Is the battery ok? Grounds ok? multi rib belt belt slipping? Also, the brushes in an alternator...

all base fuel is the same..its the additives they do or dont (supermarkets) put in, that make the difference. you notice this in winter more as the supermarkets tend not to add as much 'anti-waxing' agents to stop the diesel from becoming too viscous IIRC

Found a leaking shock absorber..changed with Bilstein B4's from euro car parts @ £48 ea..problem solved car is now peachy V happy especially as noone i spoke to said it could be the shock as theyre not prone to breaking...found that the car has already had replacement OEM shocks..2 sets of...

Ive been using it for a while, drop of good stuff it is..nozzle always blocks up on me though and i end up making a right mess/stink in the car :aggressive:

Don't use Slick 50 or PTFE impregnated additives. Especially in close tolerance engines/gearboxes, adding even a micron will change the tolerances of the moving parts which will have long term detrimental effects. "PTFE is a solid which is added to engine oil and coats the moving parts of...

But the rubber is under compression from the considerable mass of the car. I questioned this myself to a couple of very experienced VAG guys, they had never heard of top mounts causing problems. Have you ever cured a knocking problem by changing the mounts?

Dual mass flywheels will take more of a beating through higher torque transfer..As they are weak to begin with id go easy and avoid future bills of around a grand
