Went in to Halfords to look at the Boch Super 4's, and that list that usually shows you which plugs go with which car wasn't there So did not know which ones to get??? any clues.........

Every single time i read a story about a car thats been revo'd it sends a tingle down my spine, i want it i want it i want it!!! im just worried i do quite a lot of drivin, an don't wanna reck the rest of the car!! an its even worse seeingas though i only live 10 mins away an work in the shopping center new door, i could drop it off when i start work an pick it up when i finish, its seems perfect dont it? I'm scared shall i!!??

DO IT!!! antill you do it you wont realise how slow and restricted your car is, trust me i had my car for 2 weeks and was going to sell it because it was so slow then i revo'd it and did a couple of other mods now im a happy bunny...

I second that hurry up and get Revo'd !!!!!

ok an other question for you guys (girls),

The MAF Sensor!!! is the revo chip gonna stress it out, and do you have to clean it on the regular!!! Oh and am i right in saying the MAF is between the air box and the throttle???


Thanx in advance peeps

[topher]

maf sensor sits between airbox and top part of turbo inlet pipe



noone mentioned cleaning it to me when i was revo'd, vw replaced it a month ago due to an intermittent fault though.

Tophuh,

That was a quick reply and quick picture thanks for that. How many miles had you done b4 you had the faults??

By the sound of thing my time will come to replace the maf sensor, a bit annoying really.

Tophuh, how log did it take for vw to replace it? is it a Day job etc...?

[topher]

car's done 60k, (last 1800 miles with revo)
its 2 screws, a hoseclip, and a plug.. thats it ! 20 minute job to replace at most.
diagnosing the fault probably takes longer. however.. if vw tell you your maf sensor needs replacing, ask them for a refurb'd one ! ?75 is a lot easier on the wallet than ?250 and still comes with full warranty.

well at the mo things seem (cautious with that word) seem to be ok! Thank God, Touch wood etc...

My cars done 23k (2002 reg) so its still under warranty for a year, so lets hope if it does go it will go then !!

Thanks again Tophuh!

Hi peeps,


Doesn't anybody know about spark plugs?? I know that they will give your car a boost (however slightly the boost is ) and are an important aspect of the engine, so is this a job just left for the dealers and vw parts or what /
