this is me just feathering the throttle as well
booked in on the tuner and rolling road on Tuesday

you really should not be getting any chatter, and hardly any tish (if you have a normal set up)
the only way for it to chatter would be the vac line has split to the 'dump valve',
the std turbo is not designed to 'stall' and will eat its self in no time!

well after a month of waiting for my hybrid to arrive, its here, sounds nice too, with a std air box (no holes drilled)

at about 5% throttle lol

midlands Vw, sorting me out

after some part numbers please

or a place where i can get them all in one place

1.8t AEB engine

im after

1x manifold to turbo gasket (3 bolt)
1x Turbo outlet to down pipe gasket (3 bolt)
1x turbo oil outlet gasket (twin bolt oval type)
1x Turbo oil return gasket (one on the sump)

ok then heres a good one for you,

after a year of ownership, and even taking the engine out, iv just noticed i dont have a main rad fan,
only the little electric air con one,

its never ever heated, now iv changed the thermostat, she still sits at 90 degrees even in traffic,


should i be worried ...

nope, went on a mega trip gauge just dumped to 0 untill i stopped,

ill try the thermostat next!

1998 petrol turbo with 160k on the clock now, full service history

but engine has only done 2k since rebuild

well im going to nip out out grab some black duck tape first, just the 25mm wide stuff, and seal over the roof for a week, see if it stops

nope not solved it,

new seals all round, sunroof drains are clear,

im tempted just to seal around the entire sunroof and pull the fuse now

not really, but shes running a stroker kit, +2 cylinder bore, K04s turbo, running a shy over 36psi ect: ect:

only thing that lets it down is the plate, but i wanted to keep it legal!

^ ill vote that one, my mpg meter say average of 14.6 on ron 97 lol

well after a year, iv solved it,

there's a massive crack on the aerial seal, cant be leave it after all that lol

sensor now fitted

my god car now feels epic, boosts up to 35psi, fuels perfect, but temp gauge when moving sits just above the cold mark, when stopped in traffic, climbs to half way, then slowly falls back to just above cold when moving again, but heaters are still fine,

but car seems good, so im ...

this is why i buy gen parts ;)

there's also a all you can eat at that junction lol

got a sensor from VW today,

got the car home tonight, car heats up nice and normal, but gauge dont move, untill i stop then climbs quick to 90degrees and sits there untill a few miles down the road then drops again, :roll: , theres also a misfire but i think this is due to the ecu thinking its ...

Dose the heater go cold when the gauge drops?

Dave

well after taking it to VWmidlands last year for a service, they told me i needed a new sensor,

gauge is constantly cold, apart from when i stop when it goes to normal half way, pull away it goes back down,
so i think its time for a new one, maybe ill get better mpg as its thinking its cold all the ...

2miles a day?

may i suggest !

all ill say is WOO
