  1. Really? Mine didn't for the VR! Have to say I am not impressed with miltek at all! The replacement pipe was 5" too short - and that was with the pipe extension provided. The quality of the flange welds (the bit that bolts to the down pipe) was really REALLY bad! And to top it off, at idle not only can you hear the nice VR burbble, it sounds like the car is doing a long gentle wet fart! Another thing I noted is you can hear the air rushing through the new pipe so it sounds like it is blowing when accelerating. I have checked for leaks 4 times now and there is nothing - no leaks - even when a mate blips the throttle while im underneath checking! There was a noticeable power gain though but to be honest I think I'm going to search for a much better quality alternative. funny that my middle pipe on the g60 was about 7" too long and had to cut it down paul at work fitted a miltec to his vr6 golf it sounds much better and pulls better in mid range and now it has a turbo it sounds even better
  2. is the battery/charging lamp working on the dash?
  3. sounds like a knackerd lambda sensor or an air leak

Wait 6 seconds and press the unlock button once to activate the coding procedure. The remote control will now be programmed. Note: When performing programming on additional remotes the procedure is exactly the same, except you press the unlock button 2, 3 or 4 times for different remote. For example: If programming 2 remotes press the unlock button twice with a 1 second interval between each press, repeat for 3 and 4 remotes. 5. Switch ignition OFF. 6. Remove key from ignition and check for operation. 7. The coding procedure can be repeated up to 4 times for additional remotes. 8. The ignition must be switched OFF between programming each remote control. Remote Control Erasing (1997 ON) Procedure 1. Switch ignition ON and leave key in the ignition.open window just incase 2.
