Not updated in a while as nothing has really changed with the car, now that christmas is out of the way I can concentrate on more mods
The car is in at VW for a major service on Tuesday. I was undecided on how important the service stamp was from the main dealer but the car has FVWSH so I bit the bullet and booked it in. I asked the woman on the phone if they could check the cam follower for me and she had no idea what I was talking about so I am definitely going to speak to the technician working on my car! DSG is 40k of a service due to the recent problem and strip down I had with it.
Future Plans:
S3 brakes to go on (I'm thinking DS2500's or Pagids? Any advice on that would be great!)
RS4 FPRV
HPFP or Internals
R-tech custom stage 2+ progressive remap
Wheel alignment
USB charge port
Mk6 Climatronic unit and surround
Another cold air feed to the filter - I don't know whether to keep it OEM and try hide the duct behind an open fog grill which I don't have or put a hole in the one I have and put in an inlet ducting funnel? However a Saxo came past me the other day with one and it put me right off!
How fast the Mods come is all fund dependant but I always get excited on pay day so hopefully soon
Induction snapped off my engine which was bit of a bummer but it was great to see a design flaw and find a solution so I set to on the lathe and here is mount mk2
Just needs a lick of paint, or I think i'm going to wrap it with some protective heat reflective tape.
Went for a great thrash out up to North Yorkshire a couple of weeks ago with my friend and his E92. Was a really good day out and there are some enjoyable roads up there. Obviously he was faster than me but I think when my future mods are on he will definitely have something to worry about! I love how capable my car is against the likes of his!
Here are a few SLR pics from the day out, so much salt on the roads so the cars were filthy! I am in no way a photographer I just put it on auto and point and shot
Thank you for looking and your views on brake pads and the induction feed would be great
