Just the very edge of the inside left wheel was touching the coilover thread but only reversing? Weird. Probably need a proper alignment!
No fuss as i had some spare spacers to put on.

Itll be camber (if theres any adjustment on them) or wheel offset.
*Worth getting it checked sooner than later. It could wreck your tyres.
*Yeh, i know i like spending other people's money aswell as my own lol
My car has needed an alignment for soooo long but i keep having to go back in and take things off etc lol . Im pretty certain just by eyeballing it the subframe needs adjusting, i believe on this AUQ platform i have no camber adjustment at all. But on the back of that i read. very cool breakdown on the mk4 of how being as low as i am introduces positive camber on hard cornering . Its not a track car so im probably not going to raise it up, but i will get some of these:

If you go for theses have a look a cb autos. You can go for the 30mm bushes then get the insert so they then fit your arms and you have even less Bush movement. Pop to my yard 1 evening if you want mate I have some in a set up you can have a look at
Yeah ill be well up for that mate. love to pick your brains. I get paid this weekend so can pop up whenever! Weekends good for you?

The more I look into boost gauges the more of a ball ache it seems to be on a diesel. I'm reading that the best place to plumb it in is just below the elbow boost pipe that connects to the EGR and that you have to cut a thread in the plastic. I'm not sure I trust a thread I've cut into plastic with that much pressure.
Any other TDI people running boost gauges who can advise?
On top of that, what's the best a-pillar pod.that actually fits?

Personally used the vent mount instead, i couldnt find any pillar pods except for a website that looked quite old.
All a boost gauge will tell you is that you need to stop stalling and get on with cleaning out the manifold and turbo ?
On a more serious note.
Is there anything that can be done on the pd to stop boost leaks?
Those hose ends with the C lips are awfull.
My pipe ends used to wobble about if i grabbed them and i had to replace 2 pipes as they would occasionally blow out under pressure due to the little nipple bits wearing down on the metal ends due to the movement.
