Cos poorboys is rubbish,.

Nothing to do the DCC

The alignment is probably bad, get it done properly.

Could also be a duff bush.

Basically get it checked properly.

Yes.

Split for parts now though.

190k and 400hp on 5w40 Millers Nanodrive.

Figures are just that - estimates.

For a Dpf deleted car expect around 210 max safely.
EGTs get high.

The turbo is pretty small, claims of 230+ are 100% bollox on stock turbo.

170 is stronger.
Identical engines but the turbo on the CR170 is billet cw .

I wouldn't drive it until you have had it properly investigated

Check oil pickup in sump, it's common after engine flushes to block the pickup pipe.
Check oil pressure manually.

Cheers mate, end of an era for sure. 4 years of fun though so can't really complain. Ah too bad but a house is more important than a car. Do you need to spend a lot on your house you selling everything? House is all paid for, but rather have something a little less extreme. Looking at m135i's. Tom -...

Just a note to say the Scirocco made 395hp on a new turbo. However I fancy a change and combined with having just bought a house means I can no longer spend hundreds and hundreds on this every month. Everything is for sale including door cards, radiators, trims, windows etc. Here is a list of the ju...

The normal paddles are way too small.
Putting the extensions on made it a much nicer experience for me.

Yes, but you have an oil / water heat exchanger to cool the oil. It's too cool. It should be mid 90s. Exactly the same issue when my stat was icky. Change it for a genuine one. Thanks mate. should this log a fault though? I scan my car with VCDS a few times a week and there are no fault codes? No.

Your thermostat needs changing.

I had same issue.

I would certainly move up to 5w40 oil at your next oil change, but you can top up with anything decent really.

Thermostat.

New year, new news. We received the turbo , but once mounted it clearly sounded very poorly , despite being expensive, brand new and having 0 miles , it was removed and we had to send it off to be rebuilt and rebalanced. That was not fun, nor was it cheap, or an effective use of time. But now the tu...
