After pulling the plenum and putting it all back together I seem to have a very rough idle to the point where the battery light comes fading on and off as the car tries to keep itself alive! Brand new tested battery by the way! Anyhow I was trying to adjust the idle from the IAA valve but it doesnt seem to do anything to my base idle which is sitting somewhere around 480-500rpm! Could I assume that my IAA is a bit dead? And my car stinks of petrol... very badly! :cry:

Did a search, but couldn't find an answer to this: My 1993 Swiss 2+2 TT manual has key operated central locking. Is there a simple aftermarket kit available to convert to remote locking? I suppose it only has to send a signal to a receiver wired into the existing hardware, so it shouldn't be such a big job (I don't need an alarm system combined with the central locking, so don't need door sensors, etc. wiring in). Don't suppose that it being lhd makes any difference... Anyone know of one that is suitable and who might supply them?

Hi there guys.Was just wondering.My mate has a COSSIE which has external wastegates,and screamer pipes,and it sounds amazing,was just wondering if it can be done on a 300,is it a novice D,I,Y Job,any benifits apart from the amaizing noise,and last of all where can i get it???Please help :smash:

Are these known to fail? and if they do, do they make a noise? I'm reffering to the VVT mechanism, cheers!

Well, after ten weeks off the road I have finally got my car back and I have even managed to go a full 24 hours without buggering up my new bumper. Good considering when I got it back the first time a week ago I damaged it within five hours! Its had the Greddy skirts blended, a Bomex bumper stuck on the front, the little patch of rust it had and all the carpark dings and dents removed. Anyway, have given her a bit of a clean today and taken some pics. So pleased with the results! :dance: :hyper:
