Common modification, we just finished a group buy over on Vagoc, still have some stock at a good price:

Don't fancy taking this on myself though.....what does it cost to get done professionally?

Fitting is usually £50-70

Or remove the pump yourself (very easy needing basic tools and about 25 mins) and send it to us with a payment of £20 and we will assemble the pump and return it next day.

I had one on my with no issues what so ever, however others have started to come out the woodwork with issues now.Id be seriously tempted to save up for the APR this time, although it is alot of money.

have a read through this thread mate. http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,23331.0.html (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,23331.0.html)

I have read the threads, but still weighing up the pro's and con's........I assumed the new Autotech inners have improved?  :scared:  I just can't warrant spending the £700 or so when you can get the Autotech for half that.....
It seems that a lot of people have gone the Autotech route and not had any issues as well, so it's a risk I'll probably take   :innocent:

Been running these internals since the first group buy. Had no issues so far. I had a low pressure sensor on the pump go a few weeks later but I think this was unrelated as there have been numerous revisions of this part. Just need to get rest of my zorst for 2+  :smiley:
