Folks, I'm not a boy racer and I dont particularly want wheel spin, it wears out the tires. I have just seen a lot of posts about people spinning their wheels, particularly when going up hill and mine doesn't so was just wanting to know if I was down on power or something was wrong with the cars power/torque output.

Mine is putting out 220bhp and I rarely spin my tyres, a combination of half decent tyres and knowing how to driver properly prevents it. I wouldn't be too bothered about it not spinning up the wheels.

Scan it for fault codes, check for split boost pipes etc to check nothing is up.

you're not trying hard enough, dip the clutch and rev it the sidestep it 


i thought my golf had traction control when i bought it for how it never spun. standard agu, and then with filter and tip it didnt spin then, unless you tried to make it happen.
