The new form looks a lot clearer and more useful than the previous certificate.

No new car for Jazzy today.

The dealership have lost the V5.

I got my nails painted duck egg instead.

Nice hoses, look like veins.

Needs more induction kit

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Mar 26, 2018 15:54

Fellow TDi'erer's say it's pointless adding induction kits over the standard air intake on these. Back to using bosch paper filter too from a green cotton one. Was cheaper than the cleaning kit

krazywookie · **Posted:** Mon Mar 26, 2018 16:20

That sounds absolutely correct, however you're getting a re map soon no?

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Mar 26, 2018 19:18

It’s still on the cards... need to get it all running well first.

I’d have to spend a shitload until a bigger intake was required from what I’ve learned, stage 2 stuff, Bigger/hybrid turbo, fmic, exhaust etc etc. Not worth it, unless you’ve got stuff knocking about

krazywookie · **Posted:** Mon Mar 26, 2018 20:33

Makes sense, although bigger exhaust, turbo etc sound nice too...

You should do those

Grim... · **Posted:** Mon Mar 26, 2018 20:33

Also subs.

I really can't understand anyone buying an estate car unless they actually need one for something. It's just a shitter version of the normal car that's more of a pain in the arse to park.

Or if you want the size of an estate car, with less boot space than a Cayman, get a Forester.

For some mysterious reason, Mrs Fop is obsessed with getting a Forester. She has zero interest in cars, but really wants a Forester and is always excited when we see them on the road. I think it's because she thinks they're like the car the mum drives in Ponyo.

Now that I've re-discovered the joys of spending on consumer electronics and videogames I'm not so fussed about cars.

It's back to Plan A, waiting for the Stinger GT to get to £20-25K or so, and then I'll reappraise.

The Leon is a perfectly nice car to live with day-to-day, I've actually grown to rather like it.

EXCITING ROVER UPDATE!

Had I been bombing down the M62 yesterday, there would have been little throttle response for a while. I would drop 2 and floor it and....nothing. in neutral it would bounce of the limiter. There was a bit of an odd noise. After I hypothetically got to Liverpool I might pop the Deeley in and see no error codes. I can only assume handbrake was dragging.

Trooper · **Joined:** 4th Mar, 2010 **Posts:** 22270

Did it smell burny?

@ Jazzy - Wooo! Nice one.

@ Mali - What sort of noise?
