ye i read thru the thread and thought that id not do anything if it doesnt bring any faults up in a week. they've been on 5 days now and all i have is fantastic brakes, no silly codes!

Jay from what i remember i dont think it was to do with fault codes it was something to do with the timing of the ABS, or TC.  :innocent:

yep i know but i thought it confused the car and send an implausable signal error from the ABS sensor?

it all seems fine to me, even with regular spirited drives with VCDS checks after

Things are ok out here mate! Work is pretty laid back and working everyday helps pass the time away! The Rocket attacks are not great but I am use to them as my last Overseas was Iraq! Plenty of time on my hands to look for bits for my new motor! How are your wheels? They look really good in the pics! I was very impressed with the tyres that's why I have just put 2 on my wife's Touran! I have sourced myself a 19" BBS CH for £26! Just need another 3 now!

Cheers John

you also need these pipe that go on the back of the caliper and connect to the brake hose
part numbers are
1k0611763A
            764A

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box
