  1. I would do, but i'm sure that things not safe sitting in the garage...... Should move it out of the way of the gas pipes etc... Maybe i'll have a bonfire and burn it ? (I wonder if it will go bang ?) Craig..:flame Dev
  2. Hi, i had my passenger airbag removed (To allow access for a 8" alpine TV) a little while back. Thing is does anyone know what your suppose to do with the airbag ? Are you supopose to have it diffused or something ? Or can i take it to the salvage yard ? I don't think i can just put it in the bin ! Thanks.. Craig. MKIV TT 6...
  3. I had someone follow me to york and it only seemed to happen every now and then when i had stopped or slowed right down... No smoke at all when i revved it at still... The car behind said it was white smoke... didn't seem blue.. and i haven't lost any oil or water (Thats noticeable anyway !) I'm sad.... My cars's ill..... Craig.
  4. Right, Took it to the garage yesterday, and they checked all the fluids etc, and couldn't find a problem.. We couldn't see any smoke either... So i thought it had fixed itself.... Drove home and my freind noticed it was smoking (Quite allot) when i changed gear when flooring it.... So i'm still baffled....Goes for a copmpression check t the weekend... But i'm tempted to book it in at TDI for a good look over to see if they can find a problem with it... Other than that, New turbos ! :-( Craig. Smoking MKIV TT 6.
  5. Well, i drove to york and back from the m25 yesterday with the problem and i haven't lost any water by the looks of things. I'll get someone to do a compression check on the car for me and this will tell me if there's a problem or not..... Getting abit worried now :-( . . .... The good news i suppose (If any) is that i took out a warrenty on the car on August the 1st.... :-) I'll let you know all the results... Craig.
  6. Head Gasket ?? not good ! ok.... No smoke what so ever at startup or when cold.... No change in temperature either when smoking.. No lack of revs nothing.. The car seems to be running fine....I've checked the oil and theres no water in it... Craig.
  7. I'm very confused... My car went in for a service about a week half ago... I've done over 400 miles since then, (York etc) i've been noticing that i'm getting a white smoke coming out of my exhaust when i'm stoppping/stopped... I had someone follow me and they said that there is no smoke whatsoever when i floor it or back off, it only seems to be when i'm doing less than 10mph coming to a stop at lights, and then it only ever happens a few times... I don't know whats causing this and i don't know what to do about it ? Any ideas greatly apreciated.... p.s. I have had both cats removed from the car and my mate said that he saw the occasional flame coming from the exhaust. Would it be that the car is overfuelling ? Craig. MKIV TT 6....as the mask once said....smoking.....
