Have you plugged it into VCDS to see if there is anything logged?

There are a lot of things to check, but it is shooting in the dark.

Fuel filter
HPFP follower
Cam wear
Carbon buildup on intake
Injectors

Mk5 General Area / intermittent non start
« Last post by 9MAK on Today at 03:48:26 pm »
Hi, can anyone help me with this issue? sometimes my car has problems starting intermittently if i turn the car on off leave it for few mins then go to start again it will sometimes just crank for 15-20 secs then finally start also when driving if i come to a quick stop especially after giving it some it will drop the revs below idle or even cut out completely i have tried replacing the lpfp and still no change could it be the fprv?

So I sent the ECU off to ECU Repair and they sent it back saying it was untestable so I decided to buy a salvaged part from eBay and have mine cloned and replace it.

Replacement ECU fitted today, and so far so good with no issues starting yet so I'm tentatively saying it's sorted!

Mk5 General Area / Re: Which brake pads and discs?

You will always get dust, but with my recent setup I am using Brembo pads all round.  No issues or difference in dust creation.

I have the 345mm front and 310mm rear setup

I usually get Pagid disc and pads......the discs in particular for the quality and that they are painted, so do not rust like others.

Recently though I have gone for EBC grooved and dimpled for the front and MTEC grooved and dimpled on the rear.  These had the option to also have to painted from factory and have held up well.
What pads have you been using with the new discs, how are you finding them compared to the Pagid for dust.
