Damn audi playing up again, just not boosting right, tis all over the place  One minute it launches superb, goes like stink then next it just feels like its just so slow I mean, supposed to have over 200bhp, 15-16psi yet on way home from the southend cruise we floored it and wasnt even gaining on James' Lupo TDI.
Looks like more money i have to spend Just hope its not the fuckin turbo but i could do without the hassle
Sorry just thought id share my anger with you all

i have a better idea, buy a baseball bat and smash the fuck out of it.
James, im going on holiday and leaving the car with Rich. Whats the odds you guys could sort me out with my 80k service while im away on the cheap. Like proper engine flush oil change uprated spark plugs, fit that new coolant temp sensor i have been to lazy to fit etc etc. Reckon you could do that?

Top man, i could just leave the car with you then instead, i think i can trust you 
Not sure what to do now, think i may take it to jabbasport some time soon and get them to do a diagnostic on it and remap the fucker, see if that helps

Nope, we have had that before and it makes it sound like a tank, so thats deffo not whats happening. Think ill wait and see what its like after a full proper service see if its any better. Might replace coilpacks too and invest in a new induction kit. could be one of so many things
