    Knocking

    Had the Trophy on track last night and there is a knocking noise from the rear under hard braking, worse when trail braking and lifting a inside wheel. Is it the exhaust hitting, engine mount? Cheers

    Gear gaiter.

    Hi guys. My gear gaiter fell off some time ago and I've been meaning to find something different to the standard one, so i'm wondering if there're any alcantara ones kicking around, or is it a case of buying a standard one and giving it to an interior trimmer? To add to that, does anyone know...

    Irregular idle?

    I have only owned #372 for a few weeks now,loving it! The revs at idle are quite irregular,they aren't climbing,just sort of popping up and down. It's probably nothing,but was just wondering wether this is normal or it may be due to the cat being removed? Should it really be remapped if...

    Exhaust Manifold query

    The exhaust manifold on my T seems to have a large dent. Where the manifold comes down past the anti-roll bar there is a large dent however this seems to be in the perfect position for it to fit around the anti-roll bar. Not sure whether or not this is supposed to be there. If the engine has...

    Hi Guys, My Trophy is not well. Had it since new with all required servicing and I was just arranging its 72k service when I noticed a new clicking sound coming from the engine. It is most obvious at more than 2500rpm, but can also be heard at idle. It changes (speeds up) based upon engine...

    RSTuner - significant MPG decrease

    So thought I'd buy an RSTuner, see what the fuss was about. TBH can't say I've noticed the kind of improvement some people talk of, I think its more of a placebo effect of thinking the car must be faster. Anyhow, did the long drive to Huddersfield and noticed my MPG at the end was 31. I do...
