very true, at least i got it going, andy@gdi is a real top guy hes sorted out loads of lil niggles i have had for nothing and has told me to that he will sort this problem out for nothing (within reason lol) but i just cant be arsed to drive up there lol
hehe im thinking it may be the battery too, trip to gdi should sort it tomo, at least it starts now.
n dude although its a bit funny i gota admit it may not have anything to do with the omex or the mods, thats why i was a bit hesitant asking on here as i know some people would point directly at...
ok got her started, put it in 3rd, cranked the engine and it jerked, then i put it in first this time with clutch down and hey presto started up!
really weird...
hi guys, my car is really bugging me now!
it started fine in the morning, i drove it for a while with no probs n now it doesnt start. it turns over but doesnt fire, the crank sensor has also been changed a few months back
it done this the other day and i got it going with a push start n had no...
ive changed all mine for stock ones and they are best imo aswel, but i had changed my dog bone one from the ph1 standard one to a ph2 twisted type and the bush popped out within 4 months - too much abuse aparantly lol

i have a bigger tb courtesy of gdi and i love it, felt the difference in throttle response over the standard ph1 172 body straight away, the car just feels alot more lively!
cold start only a problem for the last week, andy knows what to do about that and has told me to try a new tdc sensor
the problem i have with finding the tdc sensor is that my whole engine is painted black lol
i think i may need to get the cold start probz checked tomo by andy, u got any idea where the crank sensor is mate?i think i know the one as its got 4 wires coming out of it, but is held on to the block by a nut??
hi guys, isit possible for the crank sensor to be faulty within 4-5 months of fitting??
i got my old one changed due to car not starting properly and it cured the problem, now its happening again, car turns over a few times but wont start, had to get it push started yesturday! i also have the...
cheers mate, i the paint in the rims is slightly darker then before so it brings out the cars colour a bit more. plus i need biggers alloys to fit over the brakes:rasp:
it does suck in a bit in traffic mate, need some kind of heatshield or a carbon surround of some sort. the noise is immense, comes close to tb's at full chat!!
hi guys, i gave the car a quick detail and still came up a treat!not even washed it!
have had the wheels refurbed, stainless gdi brake lines and a few more other bits done at gdi, one of which was replacing my brake fluid reseviour as the old one was nearly melted!!:eek:
hi guys, i know this is a bit late, but does anybody have any pics of my car at FCS?it was the silver ph1 in the GDI stand with the single tb conversion, my cousin took loads of pics but none of mine!

hmmm i get what you guys are saying then again if my parents are sleeping at home id rather park the car the other way to be honest. on the other my road is far to busy for me to be waiting on the side of the road for god knows how long before i can reverse it in. but if when its quite on the...
as i was pulling in i saw my opposite neighbour comeing towards my house, as i stepped out he takes a look at my car and goes 'hmmm nice engine'. didnt think much of it and then he comes out with 'oh why do you leave it idling in the morning for so long?' i go 'because the car will stall if i...
well, the guy claimed it had a cambelt and aux belt done by the previous owner but had no receipts to back it up, plus it developed a whine a few weeks later, changed them both only to find the cambelt had been done before along with the pulleys, doh:o but the aux belt and pullies hadnt. i dont...
