Cambelt?
Agree with the above.
Sounds like my car 2007 3 door with 195k on the clock.
Reliable enough but burns oil.
I ‘fixed’ the odd oil leak with some cardboard in the garage haha
I quite like the wheels.
Reminds me of Tessarossa wheels.
Not a fan of Japanese wheels on Euro cars

Even though many new cars come with large low profile wheels due to aesthetics (and ride quite well), I do wonder how much better they would ride if they had smaller wheels and higher sidewalls.

Looks great. Where did you get it from?

The only true way to find out about the condition of your oil is an oil analysis.
But for the sake of $100 and an hour of your time, it gives you peace of mind.
For my own MkV GTI, I change...
I suspect there could be more than one type of Valvoline SynPower XL-III.
I know Valvoline SynPower XL-III C3 is 504 507 approved.
I'd say the dealer is using the 504 507 approved version.

Surely VW will cover if it's out of warranty by a couple of months.

Heard the old 6.2L C63 today.. sad that the noise has changed (for the worst) with the new turbo V8.
Upcoming C63 will be 4 cyclinder..
Will be a sad day when all cars will be electric.

Of course you should consider it but it's a long time before it will be released in Australia.
Depends on how long you can wait.
I'd look at the i30N coupe or Civic Type R in the meantime.

I forgot about this.
I ordered the Single o ring as recommended by Lucas: Vacuum Pump O Ring for Audi A3 A4 Volkswagen Eos Jetta Passat 06D145117 | eBay
Wasn't difficult to change.

Great buying.
I was looking at a MX5 ND at the start of the year, then Covid happen so held off on it. Now prices are higher! lol
My GTI is DSG, looking forward to go back yo manual.

Congrats on the M4.
Fantastic car.
Can't tell but is the car auto or manual?
Covid car prices are funny, seems like many used cars are a lot more expensive.
*starts looking at...
Well good thing is that it's fixed.
I only ordered the O ring.
Hopefully will arrive sooner rather later.
Fortunately due to Melbourne's lockdown haven't need to drive it.

Looks great.
How's the PP compared to your Mk6's?

I have the same problem.
Has the o-ring replaced the problem?
Thanks Lucas for the links to the singe o ring, I could only find the link to the set of o rings.
I did an oil change not long...
Confirm with the seller.
They should be able to check if you give them your VIN.

Ha, that's the exact video I used for direction.
The only tip I can add is to make sure you don't drop the screws when removing or installing screws. I would imagine you'd never find them again....
JF Motors in Richmond I used recently. They did DSG and 2 CV boots.
Previous one was completed by Volkscare in Boronia, DSG and general servicing.
Although from about 120k onwards I've done my...
Nice one.
I'm a big fan of M3 coupes, especially the E46 and E92. Both sound awesome in different ways.
However for the F82 M4, I actually prefer the F30 M3.
The M4 looks more like a GT than...
I ended buying a Vaico PCV which has fixed the issue. I didn't change the gasket.
Got it for $66 PCV Valve, Breather V10-9732 Vaico for Audi Skoda VW | Run Auto Parts
Looks like the price has...
Also, do I need to change the PCV gasket or just reuse the old one?
Thanks guys.
I have just checked my service history and I replaced the stock DV with an Upgraded Piston Diverter Valve 06H145710D.
Given boost feels ok, I'll probably replace only the PCV for...
It depends on the car some do some don't
