Hi there Jayhaz ... September 2019 ... I have family that live in Streethouse Pontefract, I live in Northern Ireland but I was very impressed by their set up, they were very good at diagnosing and fixing my throttle issues ... hunting on idle and ABS lights triggering limp mode.How long was this mate ?

I'll give them a ring tomorrow. ThanksHi there Jayhaz ... September 2019 ...

Just done mine on my tdi 90, was the biggest ball ache.Hi can anyone help, I need a head gasket fitting and live in West Yorkshire area. Leeds, Wakefield, Castleford. Can anyone recommend good audi/vw garages. Thanks
By reading these forum's. Nothing else it can be. Over pressure at over high revs and speed. Fine under 2,000 revs and at 70 mph but and more and she pisses out coolant from pressure release valve.What makes you think the head gasket has failed?
No, black 2003. Why ?Crickey that's bad news. It's not a silver 2002 one with open sky is it by any chance?
Ahh there was one on ebay localish that I fancied but sellers description sounded like head gasket had failed.No, black 2003. Why ?
That's interesting! Did the temp stay at 90c like mine ? I put my scanner on her after a 90 mile motorway run and the temp was saying 88.5 c.Don’t be too hasty, my Tdi75 had very similar problems pressurising and venting coolant through the Header Tank overflow.
A “Sniff” tester from eBay confirmed there was no combustion gas present in the coolant and a new Thermostat from ECP fixed the fault, can only assume the old one wasn’t opening correctly when the going got hot ?
Cheap and easy job that may work for you too - fingers crossed, Robert.
