Nice to see another shadow blue on here

Working my way through the jobs, done the cambelt and waterpump first time it had been done in 72k  to be honest the belt looked good. Also put in new coolant .

Whilst I had the lower engine cover off I noticed the lower  pipe to the intercooler had been leaking oil for a while, replaced both seals on the rubber pipe which has now improved the mpg.

One thing since doing the cambelt I have had the engine light come up on the dash at random times, code is reading to do with the fuel  evap, anyone else had this after disturbing the carbon cannister? I have checked the pipe which isn't broken so may be the o ring is not sealing correctly now?

Also fitted the latest revision DV  and had the dsg oil changed.

Next up finish the detailing and machine polishing the paint work which is pretty bad in the sun !!

Been a while since I have updated this thread!

Picked up a bargain  carbon oettinger intake from Germany before the pound collapsed. Sanded and polished the headlights as they were terrible.

Car has been in the body shop for a little tidying and colour coding. Votex front splitter and original rear edition 30 lower.
