think you need to have the CEL / DPF coded out via VAG COM  :smiley:

Been alittle busy today, this was removed :



.....and replaced with :



I've not changed the map yet...but i have one ready waiting from Chipped Uk. Just removing the DPF has made a marked improvment.

NO CEL light issues as of yet....shouldn't be either.
I'll do about 1000 miles before swapping maps i think, that way the car will have gone though several ignition cycles was should have settled with the new hardware  ^_^

A massive thanks to Corey @ Quattronics (01636 822 288) for fitting my removal pipe this morning - attention to detail was exemplary (he knows how fussy i am)

I like Jack Russells and Beagles anyway. I used to share a house with a Bassett Hound!

Yeah, it was a quick photo off my phone in a dark kitchen

She's great - but i agree - she does look like a russel, but she is only a pup

Just about to make a thread about the 170 gt. I am thinking this as my next car as insurance quotes for me are around 900 quid.

So what sort of price is the car ?
Diesel power all the way

Depends on the spec you want - the poverty spec models are ok - but i wouldn't want a poverty spec.

You need to talk to you dealer if, like me, you want to buy new. You can often grab a good deal if they have any cars at the dock's....they let these go cheaper
