  1. Just had the same problem myself. A quick trip to my local independant garage and a free VAG COM showed OSF sensor faulty Pop next door to GSF and a new sensor for £26.50 ex £31.14 inc dreaded VAT back home wheel off break out the old sensor (its bust and plastic, just smash it). Had to file the new one down a bit to get it to fit, plug it in, wheel on, Fault fixed. Probably saved £60 labour. Dont pay to have it done, do this job yourself it is really easy. Ian

    Synthetic oil???

    Changed my VR6 over to synthetic (Synta Gold ) about 8 months ago 80,000 on clock. Noticed a tappet rattling initially, but this has gone away and the engine is now smooth as silk. had heard horror stories about seals leaking and oil burning! but it hase not happned to me and in sticking to the gold. I an surprised that i have not needed to do any topping up so far. Maybe im just lucky!
