LOL my tyres are not cheap...you can get any tyres smoking with the right amount of power...which id not recommend YOU try just yet  :wink:

why don't you go back to your ko3 bits, and see how its running? The map will be the correct map and you will know if its the turbo or any of the bits you installed. plus will be easier to troubleshoot when the car is standard.

That's a idea aswell but they would charge me same labour again and it might not solve anything, turbo can be checked in other ways, it's booked in with vag specialists tomorw equipped with latest dealer equipment, so hopefully fault will be found tomorow

Ive looked at this thread from the off guys and I dont think I'm being harsh in saying JESUS CHRIST just listen to at least some of us and get done what should have been done from day one! Everyone has different opinions  and conclusions as to what the issues can be and until it is looked at then it cannot be rectified. And although you supposedly swear by this so called good garage you use they cannot possibly be that good if you are now heeding people's advice and going to a different garage! Just my opinion but hey you do what you feel necessary and cost the most we are just here for advice. :happy2:

You don't go specialists all the time you go when u need to well some do, but it is not necessary if a garage can do the job just the same way why hassle and travel further for nothing? It would only be stupid to and in this case the problem was trying to be solved the easy way and when that fails then go to last resort which is the specialists.

Am taking it to Vw/Audi specialist based in harrow mike, www.audivwsc.co.uk

....I'm sure I'm not alone here in saying that I always go to the specialists first and never as a last resort. In 100,000 miles since new I have never taken my car to anyone other than an established specialist, the result being that any problem has been quickly and easily resolved and furthermore in the best way.

Likewise any minor fault I have had has been resolved quickly effieciently just the same way but like for 2 Pence, I dont need to bother with the specialists unless I need them
