To John, Dan, Dazza and all the lads who helped him along, your a credit to the forum 
Too right! Theres a fair few names missing from there as well. Without the forum the car wouldnt be fixed, id be a lot poorer and lot less happy! Thats just a fact.
What's your thoughts on this request Dazza?
I think there's plenty educational aspects in this thread and is worth adding to this how to thread list http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,52731.0.html
Yep i think it should go in. Will let Tom pick a title for it as i have no idea.
Any AXX owners get your cam chains/tensioners changed if you haven't already.
I dont really know - cam chain failure? Sounds a bit boring and I dont think it does it justice - but it is accurate
if anyone can suggest a better title please do!
I procrastinated and this is the result, if your cam chain is noisier then it should be, or even high mileage, get it done!
More news - checked block 91 today with the engine warm and the specified value was 24kw (think
@vRSAlex mentioned this is the correct specified value for axx engines) and my actual value fluctuated between 23.5 & 24.5kw
I havnt solved the oil leak yet however, need a new vacuum pump. It is pooling in.the gearbox cast webs, however it never seems to fill up more then the same amount regardless of how long it is left.
But thats a small issue and pales in significance compared to the timing values, the engine running nicely, no fault codes, no horrible noises, no misfires etc etc.
I owe this forum big time!
