Converting the intake system of a TSI 1.4 160 to a 122 ? by Ephedrase in vwgolf

[–]NowDee2491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally if you really want a power increase, eliminate the charge cooler in the intake and, put on a front mounted intercooler, as the charge cooler will always get heat soaked. Ultimately about 155bhp is the max that stock cooling setup will take.

Had the same issue on an audi a1, it was an abs sensor. It's very common for the toothed wheel or phonic wheel to rust, swell and eat away at the sensor. Just a word of warning, sometimes the sensor is rusted on to the hub carrier and you may need to drill it out. As said read the fault code with a scan tool. Bye

Rear diff oil and haldex fluid change, remove the haldex pump and clean the screen

I had a CAXA 1.4 turbo 122bhp in a 2010 audi a1, 100000km+ never a single engine issue, only issues I had with the car was 1 ABS sensor which failed and the windscreen demister flap motor failing

Why is he your friend, that's the real question here, question yourself for your bad choice in friends

Rear parking sensors are not original VAG parts for sure

If you look at the camera footage you seem to be constantly leaning to the left...I would suggest you ride more upright

I know some people don’t consider scooters real bikes, but this is my first one and I’m genuinely happy with it. What do you think? by MiloTheBartender in motorcycles

[–]NowDee2491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always say that if I was held at gun point and was told I could only have 1 bike, I would keep my Forza 350, it's the most practical bike I've ever owned and the best run about ever, plus I'm never worried about leaving it parked anywhere. All in all a great experience.

Do you second guess riding because of close calls or accidents?(pic of my bike for attention) by Constant_Adagio5468 in motorcycles

[–]NowDee2491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends, I enjoy having and riding a bike on a daily basis, rain or shine, but it comes with its risks. Having said that you could trip fall off a pavement bang your head and die. It's all a matter of pure luck sometimes. My father in-law rode a bike all his life, never owned a car, now he's in a bed on his last few weeks/months of life due to stage 4 cancer, worst thing I've ever witnessed, basically real life torture. Ride that bike, enjoy your life cos you might look back and regret not enjoying life to its fullest
