Where do I start, had a remapped 55 plate Touran 170. Brilliant car with loads of torque, leather, dual climate etc etc. Had EGR and DPF delete, both mapped out, uprated sachs clutch and dmf and remap at darkside. H&R Cup Kit and 8x17 A6 wheels in green.
Then I went a bit mad, sold that and bought an 05 blobeye Impreza wrx but it wasn't practical as the family car and I didnt get chance to drive it how I wanted to.
So we up/downgraded to an 06 Touran BKD, 7 seater, dual climate, 85k, FSH, Sport seats.
When its working its great, enough room for the whole family, good mpg, pretty decent driving position etc etc. But my god is it boring and this one doesnt like being serviceable.
In my ownership (since April) its had 20k mile service, 2 new tyres, AVS, egr valve, CV boot, Clutch master cylinder and now its got a leaky front shock, damaged intercooler pipe and the clutch is on its way out.
Even though the car had been valeted before I picked it up it had a sort of wet dog smell to it. So I investigated and found this lil lot.
Absolutely disgusting but scrubbed up pretty well and fitted some new mats.
ASV and egr swap, ASV was making a horrible noise so got a new one and had a garage workshop message with egr code so fitted a new one of thise. Fairly easy job as theyre at the front of the bay. Only awkward bit was one of the bolts at the back.
Car was very swirly when I got it so used a bit of 50.cal cover up filler glaze, worked very well.
Bought a set of LED interior bulbs, they make such a difference to the interior at night.
Parts ive got to fit,
A set of GTi front brakes as standards dont really like stopping
LED Footwell lights and loom
And the latest purchase which arrived yesterday, a set of AP Coilovers to get rid of that leaking shock.
