I've probably still got mine in the garage if it's deffo the CC that's gone and you need another bud... Not sure if the CC is identical on NAs and TTs though :confused:

Took mine off a while ago with no ill affect.

thanks mate.i will do that then.did you do it like the link says?

Looks to be pretty much what I did bud.

Rather than mess up the other thread anymore about the carbon canister mate I will ask here, what air intake pipes were undone? I removed most of mine when I fitted the Blitz filter as they are made redundant.

the ones that are a 90 that go to to the large intake pipe onto afm

Well they need to be nice and tight so it could be a reason for not being able to hear anything, these are the bits I removed, might be an idea to do that while you are ripping the CC out if they are still there.

Yup, removed all them and capped it off.

just to be 100% all this was removed and then caped off

Thats it, I used the rubber feet people put under the legs of furniture to cap them off, fits just right with a cable tie over them just to make sure as it will suck crap into the engine if they came off.
