Fitted the shifter linkage from a TT/S3/Edition 30 to reduce the throw of gear lever, feels much more positive now.
No, getting it sorted how I like a car. Remap next week, and I want some motorsport inspired wheels for it, the Golf 7R Kadiz are genuine VW so must be worth a quid or two...
Nah, seen some on Wheelbase cheap. Copies of BBS CH style things, will find a pic https://www.wheelbasealloys.com/alloy-wheels/romac/radium/silver/18-inch/volkswagen/scirocco/mk3
As the car has DCC it has a level sensor on each suspension arm, one is broken on mine NSF, asked for a quote from VW............................£170 EACH!! :LOL: Can get non-genuine for £30 on line, might just araldite it together or something....
Its not what you know but who. Went into local VW dealer stores today, guy I used to work with runs it. Asked him how much the genuine VW 0w30 LONG LIFE 3 oil is for the Scirocco (Cant put any old crap in it, has DPF) "Well Gary, it should be £60 but you can have it for £30" Result!! So gave car oil, fuel and pollen filter service using all genuine parts , pollen filter was black! I put an air filter element in when we fixed the turbo muffler leak.
Scrirocco TDI 2.0 Clutch out noise stops, press clutch RATTLY NOISE starts until pressing clutch all the way stops noise. In my mind it's DMF but generally DMF noises are with clutch out and stop with clutch depressed. With clutch halfway pressed it's LOUD! What do you think?
When its rattling it judders the pedal, but i cant hear anything when starting/shutting off. Box has to come out anyway so we will see , it'll have a DMF regardless.
Just got car back,DMF was toast!! Bits of the springs were floating around the bell housing. All silent now. Clutch kit and flywheel, Sachs parts were used.
MOT time, failed on 2 anti roll bar drop links and a side repeater inop. Side repeater is an LED unit £50 from VW dealer! Pair of drop links from ECP £34 - Had to cut the nuts off with a grinder!
No, went straight to VW dealer on way home from MoT. I did look after at the price from Autodoc etc but ain't got time to wait as test runs out today.
Another year another MOT, passed with just advisories on front pads wearing thin and slight play in osf drop link. We fitted new links last year, Starline crap from ECP. Won't be getting them again.
2009 Scirocco 2.0 TDI once in a blue moon I get a beep and ESP fault on centre dash. Only does it on initial start up over night like I say very random. No ESP/ABS lights stay on when it does it. No fault codes (checked on VCDS and OBD eleven. Weird one. Any ideas?
