  1. ok, quick update, have replaced the purge valve, camshaft pressure actuator, and the camshaft timing adjustment for the vvti, the oil light is still flashing and have also noticed one of the fuses keeps on blowing in the fuse box(i think its fuse number 30, will have to double check)

    they have also refitted the cambelt adjusting the notching(once clockwise, then twice anti-clockwise) btoh times the car drove like a pile of crap, so dont think it could be that,

    does anyone have an idea as to what the problem could be?

  3. Hi

    i have had the cambelt done along with the water pump, when i got the car back, the oil warning light flashes after it goes over approx 3500rpm, the oil level is fine and the oil pump is working fine, the enging management light has come on, after doing diagnostics on it, it was saying the purge valve, i have replaced that but am still getting the oil light flashing at me!

    can anyone help?

    thanks

  4. i have heard good things about Vredestein SPORTRAC 3, they are going for roughly 60 a tyre on mytyres, about £5 more than goodyears, i might take the risk and try them out, i want to go as low as possible with the coilovers...so will see what happens

  5. hhmm, definately need to get new tyres then, I might aswell get tyres for my Azev A's while im at, i was thinking of 195/45/15 and was wondering what is the best tyres to get that wont spin? my budget is roughly 200.

  6. hi all

    i have had my gti for about two weeks now, and noticed it spins alot in first and second gear when driving hard B) , is this normal for the gtis? my sport only rarely spun in first gear. the tyres have very good thread on them.
