Not good mate :cry: You could give CMS VW Breakers a call 01332 371819.

funky, I got the chip, 68mm pulley and a shorter belt (didn't really what to just adjust my tensioner and my belt needed changing anyway :wink: ) for £130 :D :D :D

As far as i'm aware chips are developed to suit different stages of tuning. The chip that I have was developed for a 68mm pulley with the standard FPR. They're several different chips available from different suppliers and most of the suppliers I spoke to sold chip and pulley solutions (68mm) without the 3.5 FPR. Are they wrong???

Nah, it was from Darren at PD Motorsport.

The chip I have was developed for the standard 3bar fpr so i didn't need it.

Colour coded chin spoiler...i like your style :thumbleft:

Sorry LowG, I only get access to the forum at work. Its not to bad. Remove the mesh cover from over the heater fan (a clip nearest the wing) This will give you access to the 10mm nut that secures the ECU. Undo it. Remove the vaccum hose to the ECU Undo the small positive screw that holds the cable connector and unplug connector You can remove the ECU (you have to wiggle it about a bit) Undo the three posi screws that hold the mounting plate to the ECU and remove plate Using a small star screw driver remove the four screws from the end with the fins and the two screws on the other end, where the cable plugged in. You can now slide the inside of the ECU out. Remove the plastic surround (just unclips) You now need to get acces to inside the silver metal part of the ECU. This is where the chip is. Remove the two star screws and pull the two plastic retaining plugs out. Now squeeze where the plastic plugs went into. This will then allow you to lift the metal box through 90 degrees. On the underside of the metal container unscrew the four star screws. Remove the cover and you will now be able to see the chip. To remove the chip slide a plain screw driver under the chip and ease the prongs out (BE GENTLE!!!) Refitting is as above but reversed. I should note here that Darren from PD Motorsport talked me through it. Very helpful bloke :thumbleft:

:D :D :D :D :D What can i say :D I fitted a 68mm pulley and tuned chip from PD Motorsport and still cannot get the smile of my face :D The car now performs like it looks...PURPOSEFUL!!! Accelerate and when you hit about 2500rpm you are stuffed into your seat :D :D :D Fitting wasn't to bad either. Took about an hour but could proberbly do it half that now. Really recommend this mod.

G60ING, I tried bypassing the ignition but that only engaged the starter. I suppose it may have been the starter and removing it and putting it back on freed it. Still don't know why the other starter didn't work. Tested it on the bench and all was fine...weird.

Exactly the same thing happen to me. The starter motor would engage but not turn the engine. I bought a new starter but before fitting it I thought i would try to start it. The bloody started first time! Turned the ignition off and tried again but nothing. So i fitted the new starter and the same happened with that! What seems to have solved the problem was removing the earth lead from the battery to the body then the block, cleaning it and refitting it. Since then i haven't had a problem (touch something wooden!)

Very, very nice motah!!!

Will do, you should stick out like a sore thumb :wink:

8vg60, Yeah I think i will be going. Maybe we could meet somewhere?

How did you get a discount?

Just for you too hot, Picture moderated

The cable I bought form the dealers was for the G60. I don't know if it is any different to the VR6 but it was £23 not £15. Hope this helps

I've just bought an original VAG medi-kit and triangle from CMS. The medi-kit is unused and sealed as is the triangle!!! Its a bit anorak I know but i wanted the car to be complete :) Are these rare? How much do you think they r worth? Please tell me alot as it wasn't cheap :shock:

I've had to add another comment as I don't want the thread to end on somebody trying to buy my mum :lol:

Heres a little tip when fitting them. To remove the existing indicators slide a credit card (from the door side) in between the body and the indicator. This will then unclip the catch. Saves removing the inner arch. :D

£15 from Halfords. Saw them when i bought my clear ones on Sunday.

16valver, Thanks for the offer but me thinks i'm going to be keeping this baby :D

Thanks for all your positive comments...I feel so special :D

dan, The exhaust is a 2.5" full Jetex system but not stainless. Sorted out the exhaust system rattling on the back beam yesterday :D Hooray!!!

Dunno what the suspension is. It was lowered when i bought it. The front struts look standard (VW logo on them). The back strut is green and all the springs are red. Not that that helps much :?

Believe it or not I haven't polished it once......yet!!! This is how she came (apart from the side indicators) :D Inside was a different matter. I thought somebody had let a bomb off :shock:
