Disaster :@ UPDATE

[Alzak]

that's very rude Sammy  

This is a public forum and everybody can express their opinions. You have been given plenty of good advise which you totally ignored regarding K04 etc and that most likely caused the issues you're experiencing now

Why the hell anybody would bother giving any more advise since all aready given has been ignored??  

Paul

ull notice alot more fuel usage, but i wouldnt drive it hard untill its mapped properly.

Calling this thread a waste of a keyboard is your view and thats no help to no1, If thats how u feel why comment keep it to yourself because I dont care, People like E30DOM are doing what you call help not you your just a waste of keyboard on this thread for starting nonsense just grow up and leave it please. Thanks
I did not ingnore any advice when the turbo was done i drove at the time I had no problems did I? Ever since I had the problem is when i posted about it and then people told me their advice on driving and ever since I have listened?

You have been given advice to not drive hard after fitting injectors and You don't listen

One of the fundamental things which members of a good community (like this forum) do is to offer help to each other. Sammy, you started this post asking for help and as usual lots of folks tried to answer your questions, made suggestions, and offered helpful and positive advice. The nature of your problem, brought about by the choice of a non-savvy garage and very much caused by your stupidity (no other word for it) in ignoring the simplest advice of not driving your car hard, has now given you a can of worms. And yet some folks still try to offer helpful suggestions. But the main tide of opinion is that it's a waste of people's time because you clearly don't listen. The result is that it becomes frustrating and reading this thread turns into a slightly perverse but strangely enjoyable entertainment.

However, Sammy,......

There's a VAG specialist 200 yards up the road from me.

There's also a VAG specialist an hour up the road from me who knows the Mk5 Gti inside out.

It usually means I have to take most of a day off work and use more petrol in the process but I always bring it to the Mk5 specialist for anything I can't do myself. The peace of mind is worth the extra money.

Same as me, most of the time i travel 120miles for APS of Brackley to work on my car lol...

i travel 50 miles to Midland VW to have my car worked on. and mapping even further 80 miles+ to R-Tech, who diagnosed why my engine was down on power by 80bhp in about 15 minutes.

i get around 35mpg on long trips, so just over a fiver for every 30 miles travelled. if i have to spend £15 in fuel to know my car is being taken care of then i will. i'd rather pay to travel 100 times than pay a £1500 lump sum for a new engine like you might have to do.


Sammy if you think it's more inconvenient to go to a specialist then look at the situation you're in now, and ask if it would perhaps have been better to get the job done properly the first time.

Donal,
I bet you you're referring to George in Portlaoise whose services I use as well despite 70 mile one way trip I have to make.

Yeah I can see that people are giving me many different opinions and views, who says I have ignored ANY of them for that matter, in fact I have tried everything everyone has said now that it's still not found I am taking it to a specialist which option was always there I never said I am not going I so don't know what your on about robin, iv been told not o drive it hard ever since I havnt  

And what I mean by not needing a specialist is for minor stuff like a coil pack for starters I mean why on earth would I need to travel so far to fit that or even wishbones or springs come on! That is baby stuff I could fit that stuff myself if I had the equipment, If I had any major issues like this one then yeah it is actually worth travelling for not to change my pads or discs
