Hey Guys
Anyone got a baffled sump or know where to get one?
Thanks
:happy2:
-
Ive never heard of anyone needing one with these engines, that is including race teams running on slicks.
-
Just put more oil in?
-
Having oil pressure issues? The newer Tsi engine is known to be sh*t for oil starvation on track :sick:
-
No all good, was going to do the pick up pipe, and while it was of, was thinking of adding a Baffled sump.... future proof ! :laugh:
-
read online last night after seeing this post that it seems only the scoobies boys really struggle with the oil issue. think there made with them from the factory now? someone feel free to correct me, the interweb has all sorts of mixed answers for every question, no one likes scoobies anyway :laugh:

Common problem with Nissan Skylines too. :smiley:

Due to the size of the oil pump and balance shafts, it's not possible to baffle the sumps.
Only way to do so is to convert to a 1.8T oil pump and use a baffled 1.8T sump.
-
Would that use the tfsi pick up pipe?
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the original Subaru Impress used a boxter design engine, which came from Porsche.
Ferdinand Porsche was the man who designed the first Volkswagen (under Hitlers orders).
This means that Subaru Imprezas are a half cousin of the Golfs.
:stupid:

I think you're confusing 'boxster' and 'boxer'. :smiley:

So I am... Porsche never did a flat 4 did they!
I'm from Essex so Scooby's are like a right of passage. I must defend my beliefs.
Love the Impreza.

Heard this before. Someone I know is using this to overcome the issue:

Have you carried out many of these conversions Alex?

Have you had the oil pressure warning light flick on when cornering hard?
-
No not from cornering, just one time after i got it serviced, so at that point i decided to do the pick up pipe...
Been great ever since ! :happy2: It was something I was more interested in doing to prevent it ever happening... But as a few have said it's not common to happen with the TFSI/mk5's.. More the TSI engines...
