Title: Matt's graphite blue 5dr K04 GTi DSG
Post by: M77MWW on May 12, 2018, 01:21:32 am
Hi I'm Matt, been lurking for some time and have had 3 mk5s so far being silver. 2xTDI 1xGTI all where bog stock dailys.

Car history of recent times

Megane rs250 track car
Audi ttrs stronic
E46 M3

Currently a Clio 197 with Megane rs250 engine.

I got offered this car at a fantastic price and couldn't say no.

2005 graphite blue GTi dsg
Eibach springs
Loba fuel pump
K04 turbo
Airtec intercooler
Pvc delete
Decat downpipe
Revo intake
Rtec map
S3 brakes carbotech xp6 pads
Full leather
Cruise/auto lights and wipers
RNS310 dab satnav

She's on 145k but has tons of service history and a fold of receipts and a friend who works at devil development has maintained car for some time (guy I bought it off works there too)

With all of my cars I'll get carried away and go too far but Im hoping this can be used for nurburgring trios, track days and still be the perfect daily. I'll update this as I go along.

Looks great for it's miles, someone has looked after that paintwork. Colour of the wheels goes well with the graphite blue.

Yes mate it's in great condition for the mileage but there's a few bits to do to tidy her up properly which I will do, just picked up a set of genuine xenon's to go on and a milltek catback, front bumper will get painted then I'll detail and ceramic coat it.

I have a couple of pictures of your nr. 1 fan on the Ring car park (taken by a friend who was there recently). I was expecting to see him posting on this thread. @dansmith180 (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=9450) are you still with us? :innocent:

Great looking car. Just like the rest of the cars you showed. Have fun! :drinking:

I've got myself a set of team dynamics to go on, going to have them refurbished in shadow chrome the same colour I had a set of enkeis done for my Megane. Would love to get something jap on this car maybe a set of NT03 in the future. Also retro fitted OEM xenons now which make a massive difference.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180530/f62a68df7819b88de500da2424a77a6c.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180530/1569ff88bdb8ec413baef9786982b5e0.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180530/b09bf48b1f36838248266cf2a114dd1e.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180530/731a0769581f9f49f054fd896d293d1c.jpg)

How much did the Xenons cost you to get all sorted? Looking at doing something similar myself!

I got the xenons for £350 then had to buy the adaptor harness which I believe was £52 posted

Gave her a good clean, clay and wax today. I will be giving her a detail and some wet sanding in places after I've had the front end painted and a few little dings pulled(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180603/b56fb23fe1199b24a8bbdc88b4388568.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180603/fcdb6d2ba7ec22f0369a0dffe90ec9ef.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180603/cfc022fd883899e22b7dd19c165e44f5.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180603/6e793aab22000a0d2902c81e1e1c6e54.jpg)

So problem with the golf...slight misfire under load, vagcom said #misire cylinder no2. Bought new r8 coilpacks and new plugs from aks and fitted them but still have the misfire, it's not all the time. Thinking injector?

Should be the injector, if not then a piston ring... R-Tech can test your injectors and do a cylinder compression test too, if the injectors are fine.

Nice day out so thought I'd give the oz a lick of paint before I fit them. Also got some Michelin pilot super sports to go on (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180627/ee9ea9fd4644eb1c1f4d7d78ff8071cc.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180627/7d1f316df34987188af028fbbe2e8ca3.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180627/5850174214e51752b33c01b41e7ee9ae.jpg)
