    C'mon now, you said something silly, it made someone laugh. Learn to take it on the chin, I did with the muffler bearings [:^(] :lol:

    Calling someone a **** because of how they look drags the forum down more than a lack of technical knowledge

    the muffler bearing was good cos we (I) sent you off to find one, but then we (I) chased after you in your newly working car.

    so feeling of confusion/dispair immediately followed by a flood of releif that the car was still a working mofo (esp true of me, the guy who always says ABFs cannot die lol)

    but i never said i was sure thats what had happened with the piston, i dont know much about pistons tbqfh its not something iv had to have exp with until now apart from when i had the foged ones in my jap car,
    when asked again my matt i think it was i replied i dunno!, i must have said this a thousand times now, its not about technical knowledge, i was just saying what i had heard , probably 3rd hand if you get what i mean. i do know the ring is upside down and the stamp on the piston is wrong way up, until i see it i really do not know

    Thier is deffo a problem with the piston number 2, upside down or not!, now i didnt expect a twatish reply like what i got. its done with no so balls with it,

    now if i had made a reference like a muffler bearing then i would expect a p1ss taking hahaha :) WTF?

    and making jokes about how he looks, well its hard not to with a pic like that, infact im sure he can see the funny side of it with a sense oof humour like he has got :)

    Cool, only joking with you, you need to take a step back from these forums and see them as a bit of fun sometimes

    You`ve not got this at all have you...

    Once again; it is a physical impossibility for the piston to be upside down.

    I understand you may not have technical knowlegde, but I (and others) have already told you that what you believe you have been told is wrong.

    Now, who is more likely to have made the mistake? A technician or someone who admits to having no engine knowledge?...

    Yes, I took the p*ss. Deal with it.

    But, you`ll also notice I tried to help by giving you the more likely explanation of what has happened and a route for you to take to try and resolve your issue with VW.

    You seem to have missed that point...

    And my sense of humour is fine thank you. That is why I posted that particular picture of myself (ie, it`s not very flattering.)

    Your apostrophies are always wrong!

    It's this key '''''''', the one with @ also on it. Not the one up near the escape key. FFS!

    im starting to wonder if your daft now,:lol: i aint saying its upside down or not, i really dont know, if you say this is not possible then so be it, (as i have already said lots of times ffs)
    i have listened to what you have said (arseyness aside) and i agree it could be the piston is at 180 deg or whatever, its probably the ring thats actually upside down, again i dunno yet till i see it, its not really the issue tho, at the end of the day all i was saying is that their is a problem with the way it was built at the factory, as simple as that. VW dont wanna know so i aint fighting it with them, im just re building the engine with genuine parts

    i wouldnt say i have no engine knowledge either, i dont get why you seem to think you kn ow everything?? seriously not taking the **** their as i dont kn ow you?? what knowledge do you have ?? interested to know

    and theirs no need to be stuck up your own **** hahaha:lol:
