  2. Arosa tdi miss-fire?

    in Car Care, Maintenance and Mechanical

    Posted

    I had the same problem on my tdi. It was the injector loom in the rocker cover, basicly the cables get brittle after 100k and loose contact.

    Part was under £50 from vw and took half hour to fit.

    I found in plunging the plug at the right hand side, undoing the two bolts holding the connector block in and giving it a twist and wiggle would work for a while. I also cleaned the injector loom but it only lasted 1k miles.

  3. Adjusting rear toe in?

    Hi all, is there any way to adjust the rear toe on a tdi?

    I've always thought there was a fair bit of toe in on the rear of my car but adding some camber its really noticeable, the wheels don't look like they are going straight.

    Using the washer trick, would camber shims correct the toe naturally if they are used for negative camber? I've read that they can be used to adjust toe or camber?

    Don't want to shred through tyres with incorrect toe that's all.

    Cheers guys.

    To be honest dude, I would never put my car on a CL stand because, to be honest, your all rather up-your selves. Which is another reason I don't use the site any more.

    It's all too much about following the scene with you fellas. There is no essence of a friendly community.

    Oh yea I'm the dude with the other "blue" lupo..... that wasn't on a stand. Booming Lupos together smilaaa

    Trip to the local audio place tomorrow to see whats up with the system as its not performing anymore! May leave with an expensive reciept, but a reciept that may push 150db.

    Good work.

    Whats going on with the system? it's gonna be alot of work to get another 4ish DB... the sound proofing probly given you a slight help.

    If you want 150 get those boxes out and wall it with those oz's!!!

    Yeah dude I'd like to build you a box, I wanna hear the beast going. No need to valet my car tho il do it propperly when I get round to it lol if I get round to it.

    I really need to sort my front end out tho... But I think I'll spend the dowe on a bigger sub amp. Been looking at the sundown 2000d I think il be getting one in the new year hopefully, then I can sort the front end out lol.

    OK guys enough now, someone needs a tampon... everyones different, me, rich and ben are bass heads... you obviously opt for a bit of sq (sound quaility), whereas we can have the best of both (bass knobs are wonderfull devices) as ben said he sometimes knocks the bass down to listen to the clarity of the speakers rich installed.

    To be honest I though ed38 was to show off your car...which is what rich was doing when you got "bombarded with bass"

    Focal K2PS arrived today, genesis profile two is wired up so hopefully after this weekend my front set up will be done, concentrating on the front alot as im after a bit of SQ , picked up some more deadening yesterday,

    Sub will be going in hopefully before christmas, depends on time and money, Hopefully going ported if the boot space is big enough to work in, if not il have to go sealed!

    Bass wise it wont kick half what yours does!

    Hows your system then? looks like a cracking job

    alright rich replying to your pm here coz of ur pc...

    What do the speakers look like? Is the build quailty good?

    You should go ported with the box but thats the only thing with the lupo boot its tiny... why dont you do something like the red sq lupo but port it for loudness. You will have the quaility over mine tho dude... because your sub costs more than what all mine did put together. All my bass sound quaility is sitting in my room in the form of a xxx lol(missing it a bit). Gonna be building a sealed box for it when I get bored for all the glorious sq.

    nooooooo that wasnt me silver, :blush:

    Ben the components are awesome arent they, Just fitted a set in my mates mk4 polo and he is soo happy with them,

    Having silly bass imo is like having 400bhp under your foot, most the time you dont use it so its pointless to most, but when you do use it you enjoy it and thats what matters

    And tdi Ben, id just go for 1 set of Good comps, like the yellow loop 1 good set keeps up with the epic bass, Hopefully my KP2s come tomorrow, twice the price of the SSK165s that the yellow lupo runs, we will see if there better!

    Rich,

    Yeah I think im going to go with one set of good comps... Im looking at the cdt CL-62's running off rocky fozzer power. I mean if its not loud enough for my liking I can always buy another set and another amp... was thinking about going active but seems to much of a ball ache plus it will top me over my budget.

    Ah right that would be cool... like the red polo of boom?

    Im not sure about comps Im swaying atm between one expensive set or 4 cheaper sets... jbl's or something. I want to fill the bottom door card up so I think I will prob go with the 4, have them on switches so I can use them for daily and to show off.
