    Project EYV (2001 Jaipur Red TDI AMF)

    Wow. Wondered where this beauty went. I went to see it with a view to purchase in 2016 but instead snagged my first Papaya Storm. Great to see it has resurfaced. [emoji3590][emoji3590][emoji3590] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Problem with starting……

    I’ve had another chance to look over the car. Very simple fix. Reseated the ECU cable and it started first time. Thanks for all the suggestions and assistance. MrB

    Problem with starting……

    I think check fuses and replace the ECU with the original are good starting points. It’s -5.5c outside at present so not one for now but I’ll get back to it tomorrow and may do another video on it. Thanks for the suggestions so far. Much appreciated. MrB Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Problem with starting……

    Lambda I knew of as it threw this 3 weeks after its MOT and service 11 months ago (it’s gone less than 100 miles since). The others are new and the lack of comms to the ECU is worrying! It’s running a ProBoost ECU btw, I may try replacing it with the original as a first step. Sent from my...

    Hi. Thanks for the checklist. Much appreciated. Just completed a VCDS and it’s now somewhat apparent although doesn’t look fun. Thoughts on where to start? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks Howey, can you let me know what I should be looking for? Temps are -4 outside so I’m guessing coolant will be ambient. Cheers MrB Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So. Battery off all night and now fully charged. Same issue. A little video to help describe the issue. Battery ok. Half a tank of fuel. Started fine about 2 weeks ago. https://youtu.be/rkJAWkVaWmA?si=-t1Wkh_JMhGjTffN MrB

    Problem with starting……

    Evening all. It’s been ages since I’ve been on the forum. Hope everyone is well? Tonight I needed to go out and start the car (currently on Sorn) to move it in the drive and it didn’t want to start. I started the car a few weeks ago and all was fine but the cold must have zapped what is left...

    Anyone know of this Votex’d A2 in Edinburgh

    Ahhh. I wondered where I had seen it before! And that also explains the wheels! It had been sat for 2 days in a local walking place car park (not a parking spot near anything useful) and also has had no tax for over a year so easy to think it may be broken in some way. It has now gone so...

    I’ll go and check it is still there now. It’s not got the rosiest of MOT history but par for the course at this age. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Project Cone

    Well despite my best endeavours I’ve not had time to complete the London run. My time with Cone will be drawing to a close soon as a new car arrives tomorrow. It does look lovely though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tonight Matthew I’ll be just lovely

    Ooft. What’s the mileage? I’m sitting at about 188k, recent clutch, JDD, intercooler and other sundries but now all good. Always a work in progress but it’s fast smooth and very economical as yours will be again. [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
