I'm betting on a torn dv.

mk5 gti :):
thanks for the reply's i do live in london lol the car gets used on a daily baises and genraly doin 70 motorway.
the DV vale has been changed to latest version but i still think its faild because i can still hear the whistle of some sort will have to check
is thier anyone who can put in on the vcds for me in the london area or a good garage that knows about GTI'S as i also want my small cam chain tentioner changed coz it seems to make a loud rattle (like a deisel)

Boothy:
There is a thread on here somewhere that has a list of members willing to help with vagcom but I can't find it for some reason. SOmebody reading this will know where to find it though. As for sounding like a diesel, welcome to the club mate! Mine is an AXX engine and when I replaced my totally shafted DV it did improve MPG by a bit but only by about 3-7 mpg on my usual drive to work. As a comparison I put £20.00 in and usually get around 140 miles I believe (don't often check) on Vpower with an average MPG of about 30-33 mpg.
 
Hope you get it sorted bud.
