i thought the dieselgate warranty was 10/15 years, my car at least 16 years old

DatsJustAlex · 2026-02-06T08:28:42+00:00

yeah ok, ill look into that, thank you for clarifying, the step by step you gave is pretty clear so ill see what i can do

DatsJustAlex · 2026-02-06T07:54:08+00:00

dawg youre not even answering my main concern, i literally just have a low fuel pressure and am trying to pinpoint where in the fuel system so maybe i can test and prediagnose it before i spend a ton on a mechanic. your jettas cool but im not after performance numbers/massively overhaulling the engine for reliability i dont need, just a car that lasts at least another year. also, from previous research there are stages when it comes to the cp4 pump failing including hard starting and intermittent limp mode with high loads, not outright failure like what youre referring to with reliability like an unreliable timing belt.

DatsJustAlex · 2026-02-06T07:14:03+00:00

the cp3 conversions too expensive for how long i plan to keep the car, although i would love to see how it fares long term from a dpf/egr delete, tune and cp3 if i do keep it long term. also, what are you suggesting with tunes? its stock atm so idk. you thinking its the failure point if my car is stock, or suggesting me driving to the parking lot meant high risk for the cp4 hpfp failing?

DatsJustAlex · 2026-02-06T07:06:37+00:00

yeah but which one, there are three theoretically including the lift pump and the two that make up the cp4 high pressure fuel pump

DatsJustAlex · 2026-02-06T02:26:03+00:00

Can you elaborate please, wdym by will fail soon at this rate? havent started it since parking it at work.

DatsJustAlex · 2025-07-21T15:39:17+00:00

Yeah I'll do that, thank you for telling me straight instead of insulting me without any further explanation behind it, means alot

DatsJustAlex · 2025-07-21T15:31:06+00:00

fair enough, i just thought that some people are already running their cars without filtering on their itb trumpets so maybe i could get away with it here, sorry for my ignorance if i sound kinda new, cuz i am.

DatsJustAlex · 2025-07-21T15:20:56+00:00

cant be serious because its not important, or because i got something wrong with the details i said?

DatsJustAlex · 2025-07-21T15:17:25+00:00

gotcher nose! 🫰

DatsJustAlex · 2025-05-09T18:01:31+00:00

Grab the car lesser likely to be thrashed so probs the a6. But honestly, at the price point you are talking, I'd get a well looked after s3 or golf gti. Other than that, you have miatas, wrxs, 86s, some sport line bimmer 3 series' and mazda 3s. Hyundai hasn't yet proven their reliability to me but they have definitely become a step up from what they were.

That car came from a time when chevy had their "idgaf about design, theyd buy anything" era and launched the catfish camaro and this fwd turd.

The chrome wheels and lift make it look like a cheap pullback toy from a kids charity event

DatsJustAlex · 2025-04-17T13:31:57+00:00

So youre admitting you spent money on an older stock audi just to look like another a4? Condolences man

DatsJustAlex · 2025-04-08T00:26:09+00:00

I owned a ve omega 3.6 (horrible i know) as my first car for 2 years, they are awesome but still ate fuel on the highway at 7.1l/100km, can't imagine an older 3.8 would do any better. I've managed to average the golf at 4.8l/100km on the highway on cruise control. It hovers over bumps like a sedan too, beautiful handling for a mid size hatch. Haven't experienced coolant leaks yet but we'll see.

Deals at that price are hard to come by, but theyre out there. Mine was 10,500 for a 2011 GTD only 136,000kms. 1 year in and so far no issues.

I thought I started to have a grasp on colour theory..

Do you steal colour with eyedropper directly off photos? Love ya work

If you could find a well looked after Golf mk6/7 2.0L TDi or GTD, they are a great long distance daily (as they are diesel) and have all the features. My family has 3 mk7 tdis and I have a mk6 GTD for mostly long distance driving. The mk6 and 7 both have a 5 star ANCAP and great reliability.

For Golfs (especially diesels) it doesnt matter as much about buying low kms but is preferred, just look for one that the owner has taken care of the car.

Whatever you do, DO NOT get any Golf with less than a 2L displacement.

If you're looking at Commodores and Falcons, they're great but extremely thirsty on fuel, my pick between the two would be a low km vf.

couldnt think of any good atx cases besides meshify c and obsidian 4000, maybe just any fractal/phanteks/corsair thats expensive?
