@vRSAlex has sourced me an AEM WMI kit, perfect timing as Im having the inlet ports cleaned out.  Will keep it clean and help me keep my ponies on hot days :-)

@Tfsi_Mike Hope you don't mind me asking but who is doing the cleaning and at what cost?

Great stuff Mike......that's a nice matching couple of jobs to get done together. I couldn't believe the state of the inlet when Alex cleaned mine a few months ago.... ..he said mine actually wasn't very bad either so can only imagine how bad some are!!

That reminds me......I need to give @vRSAlex a shout about a few things that had totally slipped my mind! :happy2:

Yep, Matt.  She's getting towards being the 'full package' now :)

Still plan on a lightweight drivers seat & swapping the TDs for Ultraleggeras.

Are you having valves and flaps cleaned too mike?

Do you get any shakes or slight stutters at idle?
