Toms306s Project - Fodge!

[procta]

It was fine when I bought it....but as usual, a week later the problems start to show. I think its when cars are sat for sale not being driven everything gets a rest.....then I start doing 50 miles a day in then and they can't take it, cos I looked over this one damn well, twice before buying! :problem:

With the turbo, I naively thought is find a 150 turbo for a reasonable price a week or two after the map so there wouldn't be a problem....clearly this wasn't the case, and I admit that's my fault entirely.

As for what happens now, I really don't know, maybe ill call the scrappy to take it away. I wouldn't have taken the turbo off if I'd known it couldn't be refurbd.

christ tom, you cannot scrap it ffs!! you have just spend 2k on buying pal!
is there not another turbo you can put on? ie from a less specd golf or a vag counter part.
i just cannot see who this model be that rare for parts! when there are loads of golfs about.
what was the place of getting a 400 quid turbo you mentioned? mite that be worth a shot. also the dmf you mite get a discount on too, some motorfactors do that too.
also sorry if it sounded nasty tom pal if you thought i was. just remember to give a " new car" some bedding in time with you. as you dont always know what faults its gonna throw at you.
another thing tom, your cracking lad! i hate to see anyone fail on what they set their minds too.
