im lookin for pics of the brake servo and ive been to see an x vw main dealer repairer today he says if this is not workin right ya car will not run properly and its worth checkin this out??? is it easy to do??? how much for a new one??? is it a pipe that runs to inlet manifold??? thick on cars me cheers lads and lasses

invest in a Haynes manual for your car :wink:
-
he's talking about a vacuum leak i imagine (if you were describing your rev issue to him) but the brake servo line is pretty robust.. there are other vac leaks to look for before you need to worry about that.. unless you're having braking problems?
-
oh and i still reckon its just a dirty throttle body :grin:
-
brakes throw ya through the window so not them,,, 3 pipes go into the inlet manifold just had one in the middle fixed on temp dad made one out of old pipes when i told him to buy a new one!!! this middle pipe going to inlet manifold whats it for???? the writin on pipe i can see is A 103 221 AE >ECO< but not got all pipe cus some left on carthe pipes as round as a 5 pence peice???? help help all i want is my car to run as it shud hence and the time and things im bothering you lot with
-
there's a whole mess of pipes under the inlet manifold, for various systems (pcv, sai, evap) which are all prone to leaking. They could cause idle issues.. but shouldn't be causing your unresponsive right pedal symptoms.. thats why i reckon throttle body.
if you want it looked at properly, book in with r-tech and it might be something simple that i'll spot in 5 minutes, or if it's the throttle body i think we have a spare aum one in the workshop to try (or pinch the one off my car temporarily :lipsrsealed: )

right topher just booked my car in with my dad next weds and im going to put my scruffs on and get out on it to im going to check as many pipes as i can on the car around the inlet as well as cleaning the throttle body and ill let you know what happens pal,,, but takin it to r tech i dont want it mapped untill its runnin right so do they just charge you for checkin the car even if you dont want the map just yet??? the idea is not to get it mapped untill its had a few months of runnin right in that time ill get forge 007p diverter and new coils fitted i want to do it right not rush and cause more problems if you see what i mean, how much are coils????

you can take it in to r-tech even if you dont want it mapped just yet :rolleyes: and ask them to have a look for you to locate your problem but as chris says throttle body :lipsrsealed:
-
