I'm having a saga and a pollava (not spelt right I feel) with my 174k 's tdi avf When I change down from fourth to third, second or first I get a crunch noise, never good slowing and changing with miles to go on a roundabout. I've taken to a few garages with varying things to try all being more than...

Hi all, Sorry if this seems a ramble, I am hopeless at typing #:-s I have a Passat 2002 b5.5 sport tdi, I have had her for a year. I have fixed alot of the common / not so common niggles and clocked up a heck load of miles, my job is drying out and I do local area delivery in the 'sat so the pot hol...

Please can someone help me through the mine file of uprating the brake and tail lights , I changed all mine to halfrauds qr bright things and faded out quite quick so thinking about LEDs I was wondering if any one can recommend places for them except eBay or If eBay a trusted seller , also what type...

Please don't ask the how's but I got biro on the damn headlining and a big line....

What can I use to safely remove or fade it out ? I've been a few places and they said I'm screwed as it could damage it

all sorted, took to a local vw specialist after vw couldnt help and he straight away spotted the front after market lights and said they tend to blow the backs fuses, he looked at the original fuse (WHICH DIDNT SHOW AS BLOWN) and changed and it worked

so solved

My trim code is flannel grey to, i have changed seats and door cards to black half leathers and wanna match the armrest so i dont have a number for it. But with the help above i am armed with info to go to local vw scrappy

Guessing it a re wire job...as i changed sides tonight to test and the broken one slightly lit on working side and working one didnt light

There is no gasket on the air box , the rubber in the air filter acts as seal

I did the Egr delete , panel filter and 10k de chock can before the maf and it was like a new car, as you say not lumpy or "scary" then the maf the next day went in... its not that you need a remap when doing it it just helps making it more live able . its a little hard for me to explain, ...

i had a failing maf so cant really say alot over the bosch unit as of yet (I have to try a new working one from my friend next week and will report back), and i read about the "upgrade" of putting on a merc one, which i have seen some people then have a remap to make it better . as i have ...

i have just fitted my new ultra lights they look very sexy , but when tested them, the drivers side side lights turn off when the full beam comes on (its only that side that does this) ive checked all the wires and connections as bumper is off at the moment ... so I am wondering if any one else has ...

i'll have a look in shed in the morning for a part number if needed

ive also been reading up on this to and all of the above and LSD for it also, that made my mates very lazy saloon civic liven up

thanks for your reply, i had a look and fiddle in the halfrauds carpark, and all tight and on... took for a blast up the a12 and the car now feels how it was when first fitted, ie the power in 1.5 k and the higher revs in 2nd-5th. Ive come to conclusion the maf would be worth it for people who do hi...

Well I took the plunge and done the merc maf swap on my 1.9 tdi 130 sport 2002 avf engine, And was going to report back on the difference it made.. The car is improved greatly in 3rd to 5th lost a lil grunt in 1st but less lumpy and more predictable, Randomly felt like my turbo lag on scooby, and a ...

All done now , I had another look, it was the thin plastic tube that was out of the rubber one, reattached and bingo
