  1. Just took it out for a slow ride to she how she goes.... the cars running in perfect condition now... even tho i gave it a little bit of a hammering... not even a peep... could this have been a fuel problem??? The problem only occurred after i gave it a PROPER thrash so its making me think because ive have the rear de-cat and not upgraded the fuel pump (yet) that i kind of temporarily starved the engine of petrol (the pump can only handle a slight thrash). Or am i just talking complete shite???
  2. What would it mean if after booting the supe for a bit (quite hard) then bring it back to idle the engine management light and the warning light coming on (idles at lo revs) .... then pulling away the car starting cutting out and spluttering and generally not wanting to move (almost stalling and when reved the was a squeaking noise from 1 of the pullys), come to a stop and let it idle again and the car jumped back to life and was suddenly fine with no probs !??? Loose spark plugs? Fuel pump problems???? oh its a completely standard 6TT at a 95 with low miles!

  4. Yeah ... not cheap! let us know how u get on ... hope its nothing too bad!
  5. Thanks for all your help ... bit upset about the situation ... think im probably panicking a bit too much tho ... how long has your been acting up for?
  6. Gona take it in on monday i think ... may as well get a full service out of the way... just strange that ive not had a prob before then it just did that, and now its acting as if nothings ever happened again
  7. Just went and put too much coolant in this this gona causes any problems or just come pissing out the top when the engine get hot???
  8. So does the yellowish engine light and warning light come on... and stay on?
  9. looks like it lol .... if your going to the event on the 14th of Aug let me know as im in Peteerborough, will sort a convoy out then!
  10. Yeah had a quick look at the hoses but why would it come back to life as if nothing had happened???

  12. The problem is that the original panels are like coated with a VERY easily scratchable rubbish layer! How much for the carbon finish panels?
  13. I cant wait to get the 112mph limiter off! lol
  14. Thanks dude ... found them but was after a diagram a little less complicated, just from above. i just want to know the basics like where the coolant goes etc.... not where the fuel pulsation dampener is lol whats one of them????
  15. # Remember once you get the car you may need to give it a full service, new tyres, breaks, tax, mot... can add up!
  16. Just after a diagram of the supe tt engine so i know what everything is and where everything goes.... ie where top up the engine coolant, oil dipsticks etc... im not technical at all ... obviously... but would just like to know my way around the engine a little better. Must be a diagram of the engine somewhere on here... just going mental trying to find it! Thanks
  17. To be fair the prosche does destroy the supe on the straights and bends ... 3.6 bi-turbo with all-wheel drive (420bhp, 0-60 in about 4.2) but ive driven it a couple of times and i really dont like the Tiptronic gears, would have to have a manual! Is an amazeing car though! Just car believe that its £100'000 looks dont out date the supe at all!
  18. seems like a deal to me mate!!!!
  19. im too scared to try it .... il have to find a decent carpark 1st!
  20. The sight i see every day at work, me and my colleagues cars in the car park.... well i think they look pretty good together!!! Funny how the Supe doesnt look at all dated compared to the porsche huh! He said hed let me bring the Porsche on the 14th ... tempted!!!!!!
  21. The second u see will be the best feeling ever!
  22. The wheels are gorgeous ... 19'' PIAA Super Rozzas' never seen them on any car before and i cant find them for sale anywhere in the UK, love them, clean them everyday! Yeah i had a quicklap of the JAE as the security just let me through on the Sat night Was going to come over for a chat but they didnt let my mate in with his EVO and i couldnt really skank him... so we went hunting http://www.piaa.com/Wheels/Wheel_Rozza.html
