On a positive note, I have noticed that my exhaust tips have become a lot less black/sooty (90% less) since the lambda replacements, so the car must be running a lot more efficiently now nbsp

Also be aware that the car will fail a MOT if it has a decat.

I had the same issue, I replaced the two upper engine mounts (lemforder) plus the new revised dog bone mount (VW) and powerflex inserts in the top 2 and 034motorsport inserts (upper and lower inserts) in the lower mount.
It made a bit of difference but nothing amazing. I then had fitted the 034motorspo

Getting to that time in the service schedule...
What is the current going rate people are paying for the DSG service?
Any recommendations for specialists in the East Berkshire/West London area?
