Check the snub mount

Looks so familiar..
My b6 bkc had 53k on it when it done the same... rod failure on cyl 1 with a hole the size of a apple

Check the exhaust flexi.. mine was split and i could smell fuemes in the car

Any body have part numbers for the genuine one?..

Ive got aftermarket ones from china..fit perfect but dont look as good as the genuine..but for 12 quid for 4 from china ya cudnt go wrong

Ive my b5.5 mapped and notice no increse in fuel econ.

If anything its heavyr now as it goes like a stabbed rat : )

The main reason I have held of from doing a remap aks1989. The flywheel is so so and the clutch can't be great after 109000 miles.

I know what your going to say gazwould, a clutch friendly remap is better than stock, because it spreads out the torque, but I know the first thing that everyone does ...

If its only a dmf problem youl be doing well..: )

Youve never seen a b6 broken down?... do you leave the house at all ... lol.
I remember the day mine broke down, busy round about in centre of town, she started reving hard the hit the limited then booooom....rod out of the block and oil everywhere..

B6 are made from choclate...
I had a b6 1.9 bkc , and dmf failure at 67k.
My current b5 is on 122k on original dmf and mapped to 180 odd .

Whats the milage on it?.
Mines on 120k and theres a slight jingle aswell but not enough for me to worry yet .

Being honest if it was me, id change the lot, be some pain in the bum to change the clutch and a week later dmf drop out of it .

mine goes like a stabbed rat on this...
Main dealers for 22 euro if i remember correctly

If its a 1 piece pipe and cat be prepared for a pain in the ass to get it off .
Theres a 1 piece system on my 2005 avf and the flexi was gone and what a job to replace it

As above...
Purple connector i think

70 euros in vw main stealers

Heres the one i fitted to my 05 avf

Thanks iain67..
Part nums will do the job

Cheers gaz...

Sorry to jump in..can you post a pic and a part number ..
Id be interested in doing this : )

At least ye can argue youre case in the uk.

I called into my local vw garage ( ireland ) and asked about the paint warrenty and as i have rust on my boot lid and was told thats only in the uk pal
Ireland dealer networks dont cover the same as uk dealers ....
Shower of wankers over here

I got mine done today from air con specialist for 60e
They flushed the old poo outa the system, put in new gas and oil and antibacterial agent .
And now its ice cold.
Well worth the 60 bucks.
