Brake master cylinder bore measurement
Hi folks does anyone know what the bore diameter is on a 92 UK manual TT as there are 2 possible ones on ebay and wanted to get the right rebuild kit.

pipe off and more problems HELP please
Another day another problem just had the right downpipe off to change the gasket as it was blowing and got a couple of problems need help on. As i was removing the O2 sensor wire i think i may off pulled off a pipe looks like vacuum advance for something. Im not too clued up on all the sensors so bare with me. It goes from the right rear of the engine to a sensor/valve in the centre rear of the engine see pics. If someone has a pic of where this goes or a good explanation ill be grateful as had a look under and over and couldnt find where it goes 2nd problem is i changed both turbos a couple of months ago and had major problems with the left with oil feed. Left is now sorted but as i have the downpipe off thought i would feel the right one and ive got play there and sounds deels like the bearings have some play up down not endfloat. Ive not really pushed the car since i put it back together but was playing round with the boost controller and got up to 14psi got mines ecu too. Is 14 psi safe with standard tubs? Just changed the oil too and used millers again so im reading about 40/50 psi when cold then down to about 30 psi when hot. 3rd problem is someone keeps drinking my brake fluid :( it is a problem that i have had for a while as when i check it the level is goin down. had a look at all 4 calipers and no leaks there so its gotta be between pot and calipers. Thing is i have looked for an oil patch and can never see one where it it all going :confused: Any ideas on these will be great help against my struggle to keep her on the road but like everyone else im not giving up :) Marty

Turbo timer wrong readings
Hey anyone ahd the same problem as me. Ive got a HKS type 1 turbo timer and the mph reading is off by about half when im doing 60 it says im doin about 30. Also the RPM reading is high by about 500 compared to the rpm reading on the standard gauge. The signal wires are connected into the wires at the ECU and its all the correct wires. Not sure if a simple bad connection might cause this any views?? Marty

main beam not working with HID conversion
I think this is a pretty easy one to solve just wanted to confirm so i know before i go check the car. Put HID conversion on the car and main beam doesnt work now and thinking about the earth is onto the light and not the bulb for the dipped beam so im pretty sure the main beam uses that same earth that i have disconnected. Can someone just confirm this for me cheers Marty
