no plastic undertray, kept falling down & doubt a thin bit of plastic would have stopped it. If I manage to get it sorted is there a steel plate I can put over it? If the sump was steel I doubt it would have punctured

standard suspension. B5.5 sport, which i believe is lowered a bit, but not stupid low http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a328/BENN5150/4095AC8D-902E-41D3-83D1-C8EF06B2DFA5_zpsej27zpah.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a328/BENN5150/CA8C79B5-C407-4800-90A6-5058A2C67E5D_zps3jer7kzn.jpg http://i14.p...

:evil

So pee'd off right now. Car dumped oil round the car park as I was parking, thought I had just knocked the exhaust. Is my engine gonna be toast?

Have you found anywhere that sells new/replacement carpets? I would like to change mine too, or at least the drivers side section

Cleared the code last last week, not come back yet

Car still running well
However the engine management light is on with a fault code of:

p0411 secondary air injection system incorrect flow detected

Anyone else experienced this, and is it easy to sort?

Ecu replaced and recoded. All good now

Been a while now, here's an update after the advice from the garage I fitted a replacement throttle body. I also fitted a new battery. Slightly better but still not right. It runs fine after an adaptation and starts fine for about 2 hours after, however any longer and it is a pig to start and runs r...

Cheers! I'll get a replacement one then

Think I better get a new battery while I'm at it too. Got a bosh silver, which is 6 years + now, and looses charge quickly now. I got it from Halfords originally but I see they no longer sell the same one, but now a Yusa silver. Are they any good?

I thought I read somewhere that they are coded to the car/immobiliser and won't run unless recoded

Cool, might do that then. Will it need to be recoded?

Have left the car for a while as not had the time/funds to do any more. Bit the bullet and took the car to the local VW specialist as was loosing patience. They said it's a problem with the throttle body and recommended posting it to ECUtesting.com. Has anyone else used them? They said it would be a...

Hopefully it might just be that Any idea how hard it is to remove that part of the loom? Electrical's aren't my strongest point. I assume if I remove that part of the loom and do a continuity test while flexing to see if there are any intermittent breaks in the the wires ?

I'll try again, but they seem to come back. I have read that a faulty O2 sensor can damage the ECU

I have notice recently the the battery seems to die a lot easier. I have a Bosch silver which must be past it''s 5 year guarantee

Picked up a fault scanner at a carbootsale last weekend for a fiver

will post the codes it came up with in a bit

is anyone selling any of the parts I will requrie? Really need to get the car sorted, spent a lot of time on it now really keen to get to the bottom of these problem. Can anyone advise on how to fault find to see what needs replacing or do I just have to buy parts and swap to see what makes a differ...

how much?
