You could save money there by doing it yourself, full service £100 ? More like 40-50 diy

Total waste of a decent car imo, and im guessing it a 3 mps from the intercooler on the front so even more of a waste as surely you cant drive over 20 mph lol

Get down to your local asda they have some good offers on docking stations at the minute , i got one for £19 last week and its spot on

I have mine on a building site , its turned black but still going strong , try a docking station you may have better look lol

You basically just pull it off lol id just glue them in to stop them moveing

Mines shaky on idle aswell and i remember reading something about the light will go out itself after a good couple of runs ,

Number 4 is the drivers side when looking into the engine i think someone may correct me , check for water in the plug holes i had a missfire which was caused by water sat in number 4 plug hole which ruined the spark plug aswell, a faulty injector can cause a misfire aswell

Are you fitting it yourself ? If not then by the time you have bought another engine and had it fitted surely you could pick up another cheap car ? Saves the hassle

What kind of power are you hoping for from all of this week , looks like your spending alot of money on it

Glad you got it sorted , how did the garage not figure that out though lol when you took it in the first place being something relatively simple ?

Theres someone on here that sells ready made turbo kits for the k4m , no mods to the pistons etc are required iirc

As said battery or earth fault

What were the symptoms when the aa come out mate ? And were is the plug you mentioned ? As my sisters runs like crap but its not the coil and as yet ive still not found the cause

As you say id stick some fuel in and see how you get on , atleast you no its the earth so you can sort that

Can you hear the fuel pump prime when you turn the ignition on ?

Negative on battery to engine block mate

Sorry missed your previous post , i had the same problem though even the slow turning over and my gearbox earth was snapped , it still looked ok but when i looked properly it was actually in 2 bits

If you do find out let me no mate

I never understood why the ride height is really high on the mk3s surely it didnt actually have to be that high from the factory ?

And mot'ing your own car thats cheating abit isnt it haha

If you manage to get them off then please pm me i tried and failed lol

One of the things that really stood out were the green hoses under the bonnet they look mint , looking good !

Look good mate , on another note are the door handles black on your car ?

Is it getting fuel ? You should hear the pump prime when the ignition is switched on

Have you checked the belts are still intact ? I.e the timing belt

So it doesnt start at all or turn over ?

I remember seeing this in max power aswell , i Cant beleive back then this was considered to look good lol

Tbh i think your on the right lines there i just dont no were to start , are the fuel filters not built into to pump on the clios? Im pretty sure its not a servicable part but i may be wrong

Yes mate ive checked all that , when taken off one by one they all make the engine run differently , it doesnt missfire, it is more of a kangaroo effect , and if you try and accelerate the more you press the pedal it will slow down , if you use the pedal very lightly you can get it going , im...
