    Just a few pictures of the old girl. I will upgrade all the intercooler and turbo hoses to blue silicone hoses plus new stainless steel clamps soon. You can see where I moved my turbo filter next to the power steering resovoir. Cheers. Ross Brown.

    Yea as you say I can't really go wrong as they are all pretty much the same price. She has done 134k and I've only had her 6months or so and she has been off the road for Most of it as I've been doing all little jobs on her.

    Hi Artic2. Good morning. Definitely is map related, to be honest when I first plugged my scan gauge 2 into it I did check the gauge menu and I looked at the Map and it showed 0psi but thought maybe the scan gauge 2 didn't read it as its not a proper tester but when it started reading it...

    Just used brake cleaner for the map sensor but the whole manifold I submerged it in a carbon cleaner. Will try get it out again later and check it again. Cheers. Thought maybe the boost solenoid but think it's sensor related to be honest. Cheers. Ross Brown

    Help ! td5 centrafugal bolt thread stripped !!!

    Hi . That is a good idea about removing the cover and drilling a 8mm hole in it, and tapping out the hole in the housing to m8 . Hopefully if i cant drill the hole out to 6.8mm in the housing due to lack of space it will be ok to put a tap straight in the hole already there, it is only alloy...
