Jogi's New Project

[jogi730]

Thanks lads.
Doing my best enjoying the sunny days combined with that cold wind. Just brilliant.
Haven't even got around to giving her a proper clean and polish yet

[SE_30]

I hope it wasn't as clean as that, when it was being parked up.

Pleased you can finally enjoy after much heartache.

Looks lovely Chris, great that you're having fun in it again.

At long last was able to take her out for a blast today and have some fun. I'm smiling again

Stuart, Spring Festival a real possibility as picking her up this week (probably Thursday). Will you be there?

No idea what caused it. It was installed almost 15 years ago and not really been rubbing on anything or bent in any way, plus it was protected by the sleeving

Yeah I'll be there Chris. Booked the hotel this week so that's sorted.

[afterburner]

Why do you think that happened to the wire? Did it rub on something? Or was it bent upon installation?

[SE_30]

Great news Chris... Something so simple that can crush the love for a project.

Onwards and upwards. GTI Spring Festival?

[jogi730]

Yep. It's only taken almost 4 months to find

[Error404]

Good find! This is the reason to use high quality harness sleeving

[jogi730]

Yippee - at last

At long last the running problems of my car have been found and fixed.
The issue was a partially broken wire in the wiring loom which was found not at any of the joints but underneath the loom sleeve.
Will be picking her up on Thursday

If you are running speed density i.e. no MAF then small boost leaks like your manifold pin-holes won't really affect the running of the car.
You definitely need to get hold of Descpro or you are totally in the dark. I've heard its not the most user friendly interface though. Logs will tell you what is happening though

[jogi730]

Throttle operated fully at mapping. That has now resolved itself too.
This is a something that just developed recently. Initially seemed it would be an easy fix as the obvious thing was a boost leak, Tightened all loose hoses and found tiny pinhole in inlet manifold Since found the two intermittent faults but still not boosting

[newsh]

When it was mapped, was the throttle opening fully then?
