  1. i has le version 8 2003 any ideas where i can get one from? all my sources have been telling me they go for like 500+! all lies!
  2. car noobie here um just a quick question guys any help would be great! so ive deduced that my car keeps reverting back to limp because of the afm. i unplugged it while the car was on and it made no difference. Ive cleaned it numerous times and it works for a day or so before going back to limp. i was wondering is it worth getting another afm. i heard that you can replace it with a map sensor? any tips? T_T money is everything lol
  3. Chur turns out it was the top tank of the radiator leaking btw. im looking to get a new radiator cap. is there a certain pressure i should be looking at? or where i can get one from? You guys are so helpful btw thanks for all the answers so far!
  4. Fellas, i am in dire need of information. so i noticed coolant all over my engine bay the other day cause i saw steam coming from the engine.

Also my suspension used to knock. now it creaks?ish Im at a loss #noob

  6. Ok hey guys, this is going to sound like a stupid question but its been bothering me for a while. obviously in a N/A car the exhaust manifold goes directly to the exhaust piping but in a subi everything is a little side ways. So the turbo connects to the exhaust piping. but where do the extractors connect to? like where does it go and gases from? do i even make sense ? ???
  7. at least clean the MAF. i had a similar problem and grabed some cleaner now its running like a breeze
  8. good news!! i took out the MAF and sprayed it with cleaner. Unplug the batt. Put it back and drive normally for abit now its back to normal glad i joined this forum :D:D:D
  9. so i took my car for a scan and no faults came up. om gna attempt at cleaning the maf. hopefully that\'ll do it
