CP's Edition 30 DSG
« on: January 09, 2017, 07:42:38 pm »
Hi everyone

I've been on the hunt for a Mk5 edition 30 ever since I sold my mk4 anniversary last year.

I have finally got one after a long search and it's great, I absolutely love it,

Spec/Details as follows:

Totally Standard
40k Miles - On the dot
Low amount of owners
3 Door
Red
DSG
Full set of Michelin tyres
Multi Function Steering wheel
Centre Arm Rest

Car has recently had:
Timing Belt & Waterpump
DSG Service
Fresh MOT

The previous owner cared for the car very well, I intend on doing the same and keeping it as mint as possible.

Heres a couple of pics of it

On the Way home from collection filling up with Vpower



Back home and meeting my other car



Some Maintenance

HPFP Cam follower Changed





New Diverter Valve



New PCV & Gasket







Got it all put back together, took it for a drive, it certainly feels smoother at lower revs, no extra power though :( I guess its already healthy

I gave it its first snow foam, fallout remover etc, this is the only pic I got today after a drive to work as it got dark as I was finishing cleaning it last night



Hoping to have the inlet valves cleaned soon to make sure any potential issue with running is ironed out before I think of tuning it  :laugh:

Make sure to get some pictures of the inlet valves when you have them cleaned as my 6R is on similar miles and I'd like to know how bad (potentially) my inlet is. Good looking ED30, little jealous...

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

Thanks for all the positive comments everyone, I absolutely love it.

I was trying to keep it standard, however after a chat with Nigel from BCS regarding a supplier for my business, I may be tempted by a full turbo back powervalve system for it.  :thinking:  :jumping:

I'm thinking of running the lupo gti alongside the ed30 to keep the mileage low and the value high on the ed

It was on auto trader and pistonheads mate. I thought it over for a couple of weeks before going to see it, I bought it at a time where I think most people were spending their money on christmas so things werent selling so much. I've just seen a 5dr DSG with 48k on it for £12k so I'm fairly happy with what I paid for this

I've been meaning to update this for about a week but haven't got round to it

I've decided to invest in Vagcom as I've got a few vag cars and it will come in handy, I got the latest version via Ross-Tech

I also purchased a cruise control stalk from TPS with the latest part no.




I knew this wasnt with the car when I bought it so I ordered one through TPS to finish the interior in OEM form




Fitted in (the crumbs or whatever were cleaned up afterwards  :ashamed: )



At the weekend I took the good lady and my little one for a drive up to Tan Hill Inn, stopped on the way for a couple of pics








Had a lovely drive on the morning and got home to give it a good clean inside and out, trims all dressed inside to keep it as mint as possible

Inside done




Now to the outside





I then moved on to a little de-ironising, using bilt hamber auto wheel on both body and wheels, then foamed up with some cherry snow foam from Juicy Detailing. I'm getting mixed results with this snow foam so I'm probably going to use it all up and move back to Chemical Guys



Job Done




Fairly pleased with how the standard tailpipes have been cared for, hoping I can keep them nice before I get a BCS on there



Last pic took the day after as I ran out of light when cleaning it



Future updates will no doubt be the fitting of the cruise control and some other OEM things I have planned for it
