RBS:
Also ordered a new DSG filling tube as I could not find my old one :thinking:
It will probably pop up when I’ve finished everything as usual… :doh:
RBS:
I think it’s time to get into action :confused:
Parts are almost taking over the garage :doh:
I hope I can remember everything…
RBS:
Went to clean the inlet manifold, inlet valves and injectors today…
Tomorrow… new oil & filter, new spark plugs & DSG oil & filter service :smiley:

First impression was very expensive, but after watching the you tube video despite having minimal German it seems to be worth the money.
The chain retains the existing TFSI pulley, split chain also means you don't have to remove the timing belt, reduced pulley on the pump changes the oil pressure and the stand off to avoid blocking the oil return is simple but genius!

I saw that video a while ago, and it makes a lot of sense. The oil pressure gains over the stock unit are impressive. I don't know how the EA113 even runs with the crappy amount of pressure it dishes out at low rpms. Having said that, maybe it's not an engine that NEEDS lots of pressure? Nissan GTR guys who fit uprated oil pumps end up flooding the cylinder head with too much oil. Hope that isn't the case here.
RBS:
As promised…
Next up today… new spark plugs and cam follower check…. :happy2:
