Awesome, thanks for all your help!

Just tested the pressure this morning, got just under 2 bar at idle between 80-90 degrees and just under 4 bar at 2000 rpm. Already got a new sensor to put in the other week while ECP has a discount on so do you guys think it's safe to assume it's just the sensor that's the issue?

Thanks for that! Is that 5 bar at 2000 rpm when cold I take it? Also, what would I be looking for cold at idle? I'm using Castrol Magnatec 10W40 Synthetic. I believe that's the correct oil for the car. One last thing, the gauge I'm using goes round to about 28 bar by the looks, the readings im looki...

Hi guys, sorry to drag up an old thread but I'm getting an oil warning light on and off (sometimes it's fine for like a month then one day I'll get the buzzer and the warning light for about 5 minutes, then it goes off and doesn't come back on for another month or so). After reading this thread and ...

Thanks for your help guys! I am considering lowering the car but I think I'll get some 16" wheels first and see how they fill the arches. Then if I do decide to lower the car I'll have a better idea of how low I can go, I don't think I'd go very low because I don't think the roads where I live ...

Sorry to drag up an old thread but; I have a 6n2 GTi with the standard 15" BBS RX2s on. Having seen the pictures of the same wheels in 16" I'm very keen to get a set, but I read somewhere that RX2s came in varying sizes/stud patterns/offsets etc depending on which model they came on. I'm n...

Yeah, serves me right for not reading your original post properly.

I'm so sorry I haven't read the orignal post properly at all; I've been trying to cut down into the seam between the top and bottom pieces. Thinking I could clean up the old sealant and then just reseal, I'm supposed to be cutting the top piece off through the plastic rather than cutting an already ...

I've got the E5, got the module off and I've had a crack at getting it open but I just can't get the top cover off. I've cut pretty deep right around the edge of the casing and a fair bit of silicone has come out but it still won't budge. I can't get any leverage to pop the top off, everything I try...

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to pick the car up after work so I'll have a crack at getting the module off. I should have the torx bit as I just got the Halfords 200 piece socket set so fingers crossed it's in there. If I get it off I'll see if I fancy opening it up myself, if not I will probably ...

Just had a call from the garage, looks like my Polo has this issue. Trying to decide whether or not to have a bash at doing it myself or try a second hand pump and get the garage to fit it. Just have a few questions to help me decide: 1) My car is the GTI, does this fix cover the GTI as well? 2) Whe...
