could be an air leak on the boost side? or MAF problem. Injectors do fail but its rare. Leaks and MAF failure are much more common and cheaper to fix.

Cam position sensor is a common problem but I am sure they knew that too and changed this before they got as far as an ecu swap????

Generally poor electrical connections can also cause things like this. I know it sounds unlikely on such a new car but it happens as the fault triggers are so ...

ask them if the original fault stored mentioned negative boost deviation ?(or possibly possitive boost deviation)

Normally a charge pipe off or split will give you an error code and a check light?
If the turbo failed in any way you would have had lots of smoke, either black or grey?

I hope they get it sorted as quickly as possible and as cheaply as they can.

You need engine code to be totally sure, I think there were a few 80bhp cars on the 9n.

What car you got now ?

I hope you say with VW :P

Just changed my sig so its obvious now. Stayed with VW. In fact my first car was a VW when I was 16 with a 1968 Beetle, I actually cannot remember how many VW's I have owned or had has company cars now. Have owned a SEAT or 2 as well just to ...

Not had any PM's from you Dan? Just checked again, all is good with my mailbox so not sure whats happened there?

Chris....glad you are still making good use of the remap, I like the video title ; )

I don't own a Polo any more : ( but will still look after yo guys whenever you need anything. I will ...

I may ruin your day even more....sorry.

If the airbag control unit has now stored crash data then its not as easy as getting the fault code turned off. You may need a new control unit or at least send it to a specialist to get it re-programmed? Hopefully though it was not enough of an impact to ...

Price would probably be dependent on what you need done, I'm just a middleman here !! lol , Seriously, PM him


P.S I'm not on commission :lol:

are you sure about that? :wink: I have had more pms today than the rest of my time on here. And I thought this place was nice and quiet?

If anyone ...

I had a phone call at about 7.30pm from a guy complaining about his mk5 r32 only doing 18-22mpg. I was driving and had just finished a 85 mile trip and told him mine was currently sat at 51mpg average. The 85 miles were covered at speeds between 70 and 90 on motorways. He completed the conversation ...

Thats me then
You can get any spec on a remap if you pm me through the site. I am a fellow Polo owner so will always look after you guys.

Good to see all is well with the 100pd Chris. Has the lock/unlock chirp annoyed you yet?

rear strut braces for the 9n are going to be available from Forge very soon at a sensible price too. Keep an eye on their website for more info if interested.

Think I will give it a miss now, they look pretty horrible the more you look at them.
I will just make a conscious effort not to drive too close to things on the motorway from now on ; )

Thanks for the help fella's.

no, me too.
I had turanza's and they are pretty crap grip. I asked the tyre centre I use to recomend a tyre the last time I needed a pair. They put on GY F1's and to be honest these are as bad for grip but they wear out quicker : (
