Hi All.
So I was caught in the pandemonium earlier this month and had to escape my home with what I could fit quickly into my car.
As my sig says Iv got a heavily modded 2011 1.4 TFSI Golf MK6 with retrofitted 7Speed DSG.
Water was sloshing halfway up the windscreen while trying to escape through floodwater but the car made it thank God. Was so scared
Main issues I had was the DSg was very sluggish and juddery and slipping. Guess it can be attributed to the clutchpacks getting a soaking as its a dry clutch gearbox. With driving the gearchanges and clutch control have returned to normal, snappy and precise with no shakes or judders. My concern was water may have gotten into the hydraulic fluid circuit of the mechatronics? Iv done nearly 500 miles returning to London and any water should have evaporated off I would have thought.. ideas?
Iv noticed the aircon is making a churning bubbly sound very faintly which is linked to revs. When A/C is off no noise. Failing conpressor?
Engine sounds and seems to be performing fine.. Iv got a K&N intake which probably got a bit of a wash so Ill be treating that with the proper cleaners and oil.
Brakes were awful until I dried them out and are spot on. Can't think of anything else.
Any suggestions or opinions very welcome. And I hope noone else was affected by these awful floods as the damages and losses have been off the scale.
Take care everyone!
