    TD5-What do you rev to?

    depending on which gear, but usually starts to lag about 3300 yes. only time ive felt it pull past that was after my remap and in 4th gear accelerating around a car. I was about to change gear when I realised "hang on, its still pulling?!" :D

    Sidelights in indicators, why?? (D2)

    Whats the purpose of the sidelights in the indicators on a D2? I presume its just for looks? Ive had lots of people complaining that they think im indicating, and lots of people cutting me up and shouting at me like its my fault?! All I can think of is that they think im indicating when they see...

    Clutch pedal nearly to the floor

    My clutch pedal on my TD5 has always been the same since Ive had it, but its starting to give issues now so I want to get it sorted. The car was standing for a while after the previous owner wrecked the engine and when I got it, the bite was about an inch or 2 from the floor and the rest of the...

    Ecu cant be re-flashed

    Best person to speak to is gary at TD5alive, he'll be able to sort you out! He made me a temporary ECU and posted it to me so that my car would still work while my ECU was being done!

    200 Tdi for off road days ?

    85's will be a bit too tall for standard height, itll rip the arches to pieces too over any terrain! unless your intending on lifting it or cutting lots of arch away!! 235/75 16's will be better, but if you do lift it theyll look tiny!

    Is there any difference

    I always think this is funny, The main problem was with leaking sunroofs causing the floors to rot on the old ones, but rather than sort the sunroofs on the D2, they just fitted a different floor! As far as I know the floors aluminium now to stop it rusting. My roofs leak like niagra falls and...

    HELP!! Oil filled ECU

    what ive worked out is when I bought the vehicle it had an overheated engine, so from what I can guess is the person that rebuilt the engine for me has replaced the loom cos it was damaged, and just not cleaned the ECU out! oh well, its got 2 new looms now! haha
