Added some extra gauges and started my remote oil filter install I have a water temp gauge but the cooling system is behaving, if it ain't broke..... I have run an extra 4 wires so I can install it when needed, plus I have spares for other extras now

Yes it does :)

I'm adding some gauges this week and want to wire the illumination in properly, however a Windows update has killed my VM with rave on it What colour wire is for switch illumination? Also where is a good place to get an ignition live near the stereo, that isn't the stereo (I'm too fussy with...

I looked at many before I bought mine and chose mine because it was a late prefacelift, mostly based on hating the facelift interior more than I liked the facelift exterior, but wanting the upgraded engine, yes buying a 1.8 was a conscious decision It seems cheap and more car like than what a...

Yes Muddy mods (Diesel Do on here) Not cheap but looks nicely made

The grey and brown plugs look like ISO so shouldn't need an adapter, unless you want to keep the steering wheel controls

I tried to convince myself mine was everything but the gasket Done 8k since I changed the lot and it's been spot on, except for the 26mpg

I do have a cooler but no stat, if I can make it fit there it is in the airflow so should cool it a bit? I won't fit the cooler unless I get a stat, didn't want a sandwich plate as it pushes the filter too close to the exhaust This is the start of my lpg conversion, the sensors will give me a...

Started on the remote oil filter install, including temp and pressure gauges

I also went on a long drive, 138 miles pretty much non stop Engine light was on due to "low cat efficiency" but the drive seems to have cured it

Leaving aside mot legalities he has a full custom stainless system fitted

Awesome, I will need to mod it slightly as I have the bull bar spots, but I'd like the "factory" lights on the binnacle switch, even if it isn't technically the correct one

Sorry to jump in but what relays for the fogs? I have the binnacle switch and the plug was there, the illumination works but I was planning on fitting my own relay and wiring

I recently drove a fairly modern BMW 4 pot diesel, according to its (geeky) owner it was essentially a later version of the TD4 engine He had a remap and a tuning box, both done together so he had 3 levels of "tune" also had the DPF mapped out

2002 k series 69500 One of the main reasons I don't want to get rid, despite the 26mpg

Started looking at fitting the vw coolant bottle and extra gauges, but had to do some actual work Also received the take off block for the oil cooler and remote filter

More than happy to do that, will be slow going until the lighter evenings due to limited weekend free time but I've ordered a load of bits for the prep work and will be doing that soon, temp sensors and gauges, will do same time as coolant bottle to save wasting too much coolant and remote oil...

Bit late I know but... Did the clutch and the rear seal was perfect so I didn't replace it, no oil contamination anywhere The loss of power and squealing? Oil down the plug hole causing it to miss, new plugs and leads, wd down the plug hole while the plug was out (bit of smoke on start up) and...

Whatever the tyres are worth minus how much it will cost to shift and possibly dispose of it You buying or selling?

I know the heat is an issue, being a gas engineer I'm fitting it myself, £300 all in for the kit. Currently sorting bits to fit proper oil and water temp gauges, the vw coolant bottle and if needed an oil cooler to give me a fighting chance with the lpg. I can also tune the ecu to run a mix of...
