My slow but sure EK4 build up!


Thats an unreal build lad! fair play! I was in Gweedore yesterday and i can see why you don't want to lower it too much!lol
 
Thanks for the kind comments lads!

She's going in to get the bumpers, bonnet etc fitted and sorted on monday. Picked up my OEM prefacelift lip this evening too! Thanks Livvy!

CEL Could be the knock sensor, i mixed up two plugs from my loom that were exact same and had same symptoms as your having!


Nice build mate - big respect !

Once they were swapped round it was perfect!

Which one is the knock sensor?! I should probably know this after doing all that work lol!:))
