Check your dv they are a common problem so I've read. If they fail they leak boost.

Can I ask what a 'brake boost' is? Have you checked your boost hoses?

I see, never Hurd of that before. Well all I can think of is The PCV has gone. There is a simple way to check if the PCV has failed, have a search on here As I can't remember  :happy2:

I've got a K04  conversion with DNA tuning software. We're still working on the final map but OMG it gets better and better. You need an uprated clutch now :)
Can you explain the brake boost for me? I don't understand but I've heard John talk about left foot braking when he's track racing his Leon.

What does the left foot brake mod do, I understand you brake with your left foot but what's the mod?
