The forge valve and the genuine valve are the same. Forge buy them direct from pierberg and just machine the tab off so the plug fits from the dv.

Fooking muppets for changing the wrong one.

Glad its running better now.

Well 100 miles on and 700€ lighter and cold start / idle is great, no popping.  Pulls like a train, had a bit of 4th gear wheel spin  :driver:

Put it back in family mode stock map to make myself be sensible.

Coupl of pics the dealer took yesterday of intake ports, I was hoping theyd focus in the ports and on the valves, lost in translation I guess

Very quick update as I dasah in & out the house.  Car drives brilliantly.  The stock map feels so much better!  So much more grunt & get up and go.

Nipped to pay the horrific bill @ dealer and to tell them im not happy thel lost a stainless jubilee from my ITG and theyve ordered a new one.

Next up winter tyres, exciting :(  :signLOL:

Cheers  :smiley:

Itching to go and waste some fuel on this cold night now the roads are empty  :evilgrin:

Have a pre handover inspection of the house on Monday morning and having spent all week comming and going on hospital visits the place is upside down, holes in the wall where I took the shelves, pictures and LED tv down last weekend lol

Next for the car is ATE super blue fluid, S3 J hooked rears, LEDs in rear view mirror, re fitting dash bits that are being flocked as we speak  :smiley:

Oh I do like a bit of flocking  :grin:

Possibly one of my mods as it is a little bit shinier than the ED30 dash.

Are you back over in Blighty anytime soon?  Meet-up?

A before shot for reference....



the main part of the leon dash is in two parts.  The rear part nearest the windscreen and down the sides (where the fuse box is) is plastic & I eventually want it the same finish as the above flocked bits.  The rest is a carbon effect finish thats a little bit spongy to prod, that will be staying as it is...

They look 100 times better in the flocking look forward to seeing them on the car.  I take it the car is still running as it should, so does that mean that injector 3 is the likely culprit?
