Have you not looked at a Polar FIS yet?

They do much more than speed. They do logs for your car - boost, AFR, EGT, plus lots more. As soon as they sort out a Polar unit for the MKVI it will be on my Christmas list.  :cool:

Not yet no. Have you got a second hand one for the mkv? So it's like a plug and play vagcom, that doesn't diagnose faults?

They sound interesting. Where to buy?

Not many about second hand as they are so useful.

Here is a bit of info on what they can do.

really easy,  just plugs in between the can bus.

on mine i have,  intake temp, oil temp, water temp, boost and afr.   fantastic bit of kit you know when your car is ready to get trashed and when something is not right.

you need highline and MFSW

Oil change, wind deflectors and o/s top engine mount to be replaced next week.

I've had a slight knock at the clutch biting point in 1st and 2nd gear. It's been localised to the top engine mount, so hopefully that'll solve the trick!

Also on top of the oil filter, is there anything else I'll need for a oil change? I've ordered some Forte Oil Fortifier to give it a bit more longevity. I've found that with the Fortifier, I burn about half a litre less over 2,000 miles. Well worth it imo.  :smiley:
