Small update.

Had a random code come on in the ecu and epc light was on. So rtech wanted me to send it down and i got it back and put it back in and now the traction control light is on.

Its somthing to do with mechatronics map and the map on my ecu not 100% sure what, but speaking to niki at rtech he knew what it needed so i need to go the 12hour round trip down again and stay the night.

So while i'm down going to get the walnut carbon cleaning and oil pickup done and the runner flap delete. Also going to try get a day at donnington race track while we're down (not in the ed30).

Plans to sell it were flung out the window anyway maybe next year.

Doesn't make sense after all the paint job and other work i've had done to then sell up.So i'll enjoy it for this year and see what happens.

Made it to rtech on tuesday morning left at 4am and then took a trip into london and stayed the night. Never do that again its chaos haha.

Anyway rtech sorted everything out.

They changed my spark plugs,fitted the dv+, carbon and injector clean,fitted rs4 pressure valve.

Small update.

Been toying with idea of selling for about a year now.

Finally decided i'm keeping it for another year.

Service time, so decides to change a few things that wern't due but for peice of mind i wanted it done.

Its in at automek in east kilbride which have serviced it last couple of years top guys.

Oil/filter change
Dsg fluid/filter
Oil pick up pipe
Cam follower
Front brake pads and brake caliper refurb
Rear brake discs and pads

Also in for a full machine polish aswell next door in rm bodyshop before its serviced.
