All Things Mk5 > Mk5 General Area
What did you and your MKV do today?
Saint Steve:
have spent 3 days on washing-polishing-waxing the Ed30, took her to the dealers for a well earned long life oil and filter change.
Dealer was very complimentary on my car, on it's condition and with the mods that I have done to the car.
One of the sales guys (Lee) took a big interest, so much so, asked if he could take her for a test drive, to compare it, to the Red Golf R at the same state of tune that he has had for a weekend (Darren Cooper) head of Peter Cooper group , also that car being DSG.
He came back with the biggest grin on his face, saying what a superb car mine is and by god it's as quick or even slightly faster up the rev range then the R.He also loved the sound of the milltek non Res is under way.
He thinks I would be mad to sell up for an R, and wants 1st refusal if I do! , didn't have the heart to tell him, I would have to sell a kidney 1st in order to buy one though :laugh:
Oh and I found a missing torx bit from my screwdriver set, that fell into the engine bay a couple weeks ago.I looked for ages but couldn't find it, only to be told that I have a slow punture in my new vredestein front near side tyre, with said torx bit firmly implanted in the tread :signLOL: :signLOL:
Well at least I got my missing torx bit, and £15 lighter in the back pocket to get it fixed :sad1:
Looking foward to this weekends RR day at jkm :happy2:

Bugger, I dropped a torx screw when changing PCV the other day and couldnt see it anywhere :scared:
Fingers crossed

The R has greater transmission losses vs the fwd ed 30 so that's not unexpected with both cars in the same stage of tune.
