No, @TomSx only when WOT. It makes a leaking/blowing sound that's quite a low pitch, suggesting a large opening rather than small hose leak. Changed back to the 007p and it's gone. Thank God. I thought something was going on with gears as it did it around the same revs in all gears (4k i.e. when it's really starting to spin up).

That has to be a faulty valve?

Agreed, but it's been too long to make a claim through eBay/Paypal and unsure about warranty. For £20 CBA.

Get an exhaust mate.. They sound mega!

Rob · Jul 28, 2014

It looks great, but by god are you s**t at making avatars :clap:

I'll fix it when I get a chance.

Alan · Jul 28, 2014

Love it mate, before i bought the 200 last year i test-drove a red one, it was a bit ropey with some badmanz' bits which put me off, still on my 'to own' list tho.

Yeah there seems to be a lot of ropey ones out there. Surprising but I guess people with money bought them and they sat rotting judging by most having uber low mileage. Or Badmanz get hold of them and rude boi them up.

I got love for the 200 too. Must be the gay in us.

There's a red one by me (not the I drove), the lad has some BBS CS' on it, stanced to fvck too, looks good but un-drivable.

Indeed.. My gayness is heightened by the Abarth tho I thinks lol.

Gally · Jul 29, 2014

I think on the V6 or 225 stance and wheels are fine. The QS is different and shouldn't be fucked around with too much!

I tend to agree. I think the QS could do with a 20mm drop but I don't want bad manz lows. So I'm not sure to go coilovers or springs with uprated dampers. Needs noise first.

Gally · Jul 29, 2014

Springs for me.

JD · Jul 29, 2014

Bilstein B8s and H&Rs is the best by all accounts.

H&r don't lower the qs nor do eibach. Everyone raves about bilstein and apex on the TT forum.

KW's are awesome!

Alright, calm down..

Me and you need to talk splitter.

_Tom · Aug 8, 2014

Just over a year and it's just gone. Probably one the longest I've owned a car. Neeeext.

What did you get for it? (if you don't mind saying?) What have you bought?

_Tom · Aug 8, 2014

£6500.

That Audi A3 TFSI Quattro. It's been mapped, Milltek etc It's not exciting but I really don't know what I want and it seemed a good side step as I need 4 seats really.

I'd have done you a deal with my meg!

So sad! Such an awesome car!

That black one, you showed us the other day?
Are you keeping the badmanz rims on it?

I was looking at Megs..

gally said:

Yeah I agree. I'm glad I owned it. If I get another (which I'm not ruling out in the future) , it'll be a tricked up 3.2.

Yes, and no. I'm going to change them. It does look sweet in the metal I will say though.

Is this a direct injection on this engine

mr bognor said:

Sadly, yes...lol! Same as the golf GTi Mk5's.

mr bognor · Aug 8, 2014

Do you want to borrow my valve cleaning kit

Just looked at the Audi. The wheels are not bright enough.

tis nice though.

_Tom · Aug 8, 2014

I'm sure I'll be alright mate. Thanks for the offer. This engine doesn't really seem to suffer. I will get a catch can though.

Those pics do it no justice. AT ALL.

Scrooge · Aug 8, 2014

Get it detailed and some proper pics up, does it have the half leather seats in it?

_Tom · Aug 8, 2014

Scrooge said:

Yeah I will mate. I broke my oath never to buy another black car. I'm looking forward to playing myself with some one the cleaning products I've bought.

Seats are full leather heated S line jobbies. Super super comfy. No more dead legs for me.

Scrooge · Aug 8, 2014

Haha, look forward to seeing more pics. I like them.

Gally · Aug 8, 2014

Link?

The TSFI engine is a nightmare but you might have more luck than most!

Lal B3N · Aug 8, 2014

Shame it's gone, looked fantastic!

Is the Audi just a stop gap then?

Lawro · Aug 8, 2014

I'm quite sad about this, looking forward to seeing the A3 though!

Dan@SJM · Aug 9, 2014

He had to get rid. TTQS's self destruct if they see one another

_Tom · Aug 9, 2014

Haha yeah the a3 is whilst I decide what I really want tbh. Might save a bit more and buy a 335i. The TT was starting to get a high mileage and my head saying sell it whilst its still got a bit of value.

Anyway, crap PIC but the a3

http://instagram.com/p/reTF1_y6Bv/

I'll get some proper pics soon.

Hixle · Aug 10, 2014

Did it sell fairly quickly Tom?

A3 looks decent!

_Tom · Aug 10, 2014

Only a week so not bad!

banther · Aug 11, 2014

Saw on FB you'd replaced.

Sad times

Yep. I've posted a couple of crap pics the A3 a couple of threads below.

JD · Aug 11, 2014

Gay.

Wait.

Is the new one lowered I presume?
