    TGTT Forum Upgrade

    Since the upgrade and photobucket issues do we still upload pictures the same as we used to? And is it safe to keep using photobucket or just use a different site?

    No boost after timing belt change

    A massive thank you to Gryzor for helping me out today with this. Turns out the mechanic had mixed up two lines from the valve and actuator. At least i'll be running right for the RR day!

    No boost after timing belt change

    It would be the standard high/low button I would be using, the one that is giving the reading is an aftermarket one. You know exactly what he reckons....what was off is back on, what was changed was checked properly, should be fine. I would have brought it up to you Jay and bullied my way...

    No boost after timing belt change

    No boost after timing belt change

    There is a boost controller but as far as I'm aware it's wired in reading psi but the solenoid isn't wired in so it can't be adjusted. Everything is stock bar an exhaust.

    Constant Grinding - not gearbox/engine

    Nothing worse than being left stranded like that, I managed to free wheel about 15m through a roundabout and just onto a lay-by when I though the problem was fixed......It wasn't lol Good to hear there is progress none the less

    Constant Grinding - not gearbox/engine

    I had an awful sound from one of my bearings when we first took mine out on the test runs, sounded like a pod racer from star wars and was a complete headache on the motorways. After the bearing was changed that sound was gone which was great, but then it let me hear the bearing on the other...
