How many miles have people done on stage 2/2+

(1/3) > >>

Madone:
I am slowly working my way to stage 2+, and was wondering how reliable the car will be in the long term with an extra 150bhp.

What sort of miles have people put on stage 2+ cars, has anyone had gearbox issues or increased oil consumption etc.

Wonder who has done the most miles on stage 2/2+  :jumpmove:

GrayMK5GTI:
There's a guy on here (forgot his name   :ashamed:) who has a K04 converted Octavia TFSI, he's done over 80,000 miles with the conversion (car is on over 120,000)

If you increase the maintenance (more regular oil changes), use Millers Nanodrive oil and only thrash the car when warm then it will do 200,000 miles  :happy2:

@RedRobin has over 110,000 miles on his K03 GTI - that's been tuned since around 20,000 miles IIRC

Sug:
Only done 20k at stage 2+ but it's been fun

How often do you change oil etc ? Every year /10k ?  Sounds like the engine is pretty strong !  :jumpmove:

DANBOY66:
i personally am going to do oil change every 5000 miles approx 6 months and gearbox dsg service at 20000 miles as that has been remapped as well  :happy2:
