Im new, Hi!
« on: 05 November 2010, 14:44 »
Hi there. Thought id join this forum as i've just bought myself a 2.0 GTI and need some help. You all sound very helpful!

Basically i bought the car a few weeks ago, no problems until now....

The car is very tappety. Did an oil change with an engine flush, standard 10w40 oil.

Did the trick for about 30 minutes. This led me to believe the oil pick up pipe is blocked, I think!

Does anyone know how i take the sump off, the bloody subfame is in the way!

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Drop the subframe mate, but if there's a centre bar in the subframe in the way it should be able to be removed. It should be simple is it mk3?
