That doesn't work on the free version unfortunately

After doing my timing belt a while back I thought I would have a look at my timing with the free version, I am getting 0.9 btdc with a duty cycle of 45%. This sounds like the pumps retarded a bit and wondered if this would cause performance issues, it's a ahu 90 so not overly impressive anyway but w...

cheers guys , well i unplugged the wires going to the boot latch and it still happened , after checking all the doors and seeing they were fine I unplugged tthe bonnet latch switch and all has been fine , I guess driving though puddles at high speed didnt do it any good

well ive owned my 19td1 afn estate for two years now , when i got it I redone all the wires on the ccm and everything has worked fine, I even took the drain plug out of bulkhead and had never had a trouble with water , but today when i locked the car the alarm started going off which suprised me as ...

could it be they used the wrong oil ,????? i dunno as much as you guys but from what i have learnt off here the PD oil is thinner , if they have used a different "thicker" oil it may be struggling to push it round the engine, i would have thought this would affect consumption but not throw...

well i figured that out , but was wondering if wind deflectors stop it or is there anything else people have tried

and if you open the door there is a small torx headed screw that you loosen off and the whole unit would have pulled out easily rather than buggering the cap and door handle but i take it the battery is flat and you cant open the door

as title says realy , when a rear window is open whilst going along the noise it makes is deafening like a chinook is right by my head , anyone else have this problem and what have they done about it

the lenses are plastic so its easy to scuff them over ith a bit of 1500 wet and dry , then mask them up and take them to your friendly bodyshop and ask them to blow some laquer on them with a few drops of black in it , it only takes an hour if that and can even be done on the car

a good way to measure a good car is to see how many taxi''s are bout , and theres lots of deisel passat taxi's around here , but then again there is a subaru impreza turbo taxi in wantage

mine too , ive bridged the connecters aswell and nothing happens , then ten minutes later the guage is working again , then five minutes after that it goes back to stone cold , starting to think its the guage

i am realy not getting this so help me , the thread above says that if the egr is closed ( blanked off ) the turbo will run too hot Quote " if the valve is closed - some smoke with a slight power loss increasing to greater power loss followed by a bang" so why are you guys blanking it off ...

i know its a mod but what does it actually do , and what benefits are there to blanking off something thats supposed to be there ???

mine is stock as i class it as a tool , i have made a huge cycle rack for the back of it and it has a towbar ,i have made a motorcycle trailer for it and even a winch that fits onto the towbar lol
my motorbikes are impractical and get all the attention which more than makes up for the passat

mines been messing about for ages , dont think its the sender though as i have bridged the wires and still nothing , but given a wiggle and it starts working again so i am thinking its the actual connecter block, when i get round to it i am going to solder some connections on and insulate them ,, di...

saw the nice dark blue one on copenhagen drive Abingdon this morning and the a lighter blue on faringdon Abingdon road this evening both estates both badgeless grilles and both nicer than mine :sad: its getting bad as i waved to both :shock: mines the dark green ( walkers salt n vinegar) b5 estate w...

just out of interest , how do you switch from mfa 1 to 2

i allways thouhght hazard lights were what you use accompanied by a brief flashing of the headlights to warn drivers coming the other way that there is a bright green man with a safety camera hiding in a bush

Vw's never interested me much :roll: ( as i said earlier i prefer bikes) but my mum is disabled so me and my dad found a T25 transporter van and converted it , it needed a new engine and after much research we found a Subaru legacy 2.2 that had done 45k so out came that engine and into the Transport...

lol cheers for that ;) just had a look and the it is the fog lights , silly silly me for thinking " if it had fog lights , they would be in the bumper"

spotted a lovely blue estate at tesco's, lowered with debadged grill, only saw it breifly but it did look nice and yesterday i parked ( in bloody Tesco's again) next to a black saloon with huge chrome dished wheels on , looked ace but i adidnt have the time to have a proper look , number plates were...

aluminium arm on a steel spindle so it will corrode on , i sometimes hold a bit of wood against the arm and tap it a few times with a hammer to loosen it off , then a wiggle and it should come off

no the two innermost ones are a h4 twin fillament bulb with a three pronged connecter

my headlights are confusing me. with the hadlights on , ihave sidelights and the single fillament bulb above them on , when i flash my lights the twin fillament bulb lights up aswell . but what i dont understand is when the lights are on normal , surely one of the fillaments of the twin fillament bu...

so where do people go for re maps , is it easy ??/ and how come the tuning box's or ( chips) arent any good for cars
