Thanks for the info mate much appreciated will look into this as I have a list of jobs to get through but looking to get this hesitation sorted, most of the time the car does run great just randomly has that slight hesitating like a stutter then away it goes, also need to get my thermostat swapped as temp drops from 90 if doing anything other than town driving aswell thanks again

There always seems like there's jobs to be done on these cars.The thermostat is a priority.

Well done for saving the ECU at least you saved some money there. I thought the thermostat was a bit fiddly to do, and I haven't got any tips or tricks to help you, so hopefully it goes well for you.

Yeah was more luck than anything that i managed to save it built a shield round it after I refuted it so water can’t land on it anymore and it’s never gonna open again the amount of sealer I put back in to seal it back up but touch wood been fine since then and yeah I’ve had a look doesn’t seam to bad just a bit tight to get into but will do it in my work so I have the ramp anyway so will get that and the service done next weekend, random question mine is a dsg and I’m gonna service the box aswell my sump pan on the box is a bit corroded so I’m gonna change that at the same time does anyone have any idea if that will req more oil in refilling due to the sump being replaced rather than just drained? Thanks again for the help guys it’s much appreciated.
