Hi, New to the boards, and know very little about cars! I had the emmission control light come on during Xmas, but due to an impending service I have let it go for a week or so. I had my service yesterday and asked them to investigate (I know about VAG-COM, but it only cost me £25 for...

I was filling up the washer fluid today and noticed that I have a hole at the front of my intake - it looks like a cover has dissapeared somewhere... I've had a look on google and i don't think it's supposed to be there.. can anyone confirm? Ta

before i get attacked.... i have done many searchs and had a look in the faqs about this there is a lot of info on here about people that have done it but i cant find a step-by-step anywhere, i was having a play earlier and could remove the lower part of the standard air box. theres a...

Right to anybody who has fitted one of these, I have fitted mine and due to the larger thickness of the gasket, I cannot get the allen key bolt back into the stabiliser/ intake manifold support bracket, does it matter? I may be pissing in the wind here without any pictures tho lol cheers. PS...

As above, going to need to get mine sorted soon as mine is currently non existant and would love a few ideas. Any pics of your setup would be good, along with specs( lengths of air feed etc)

worth doing? I've got a standard PD130 Hopefully booked in next month for a Stage 1 remap and panel filter at P-Torque :D

Ok, my cars in for some warranty work, thought it was wheel bearing but turned out to be excessve play in the CV joint, so joint has been changed, and also a cambelt change. However i also noticed as the per the post the other week that my car did'nt have the correct PD160 specific intake...

Just want to makesure i'm not seeing things, but when i started the big cleanup of my car ( the previous owner did'nt believe in detailing....lol ( no offence Coyote)) And started on the engine bay i noticed that the intake did'nt look right. So can people just confirm that this is indeed the...

I had a Remap at P-Torque with the standard 130PD air intake and now I am fitting a PD160 intake pipe and Trumpet, will it make any difference to the power output compared to if I had it fitted before the remap. Also when I had the map done Will said air intake was restrictive, I was surprised...

Spoke to a reliable source there just now with dealer ETKA and got the following information We are assuming that based on the 240bhp posted in the 2010 ETKA, that the BWJ engine has been replaced by the CDLD. No access to previous version of ETKA means that it is possible that moving...
