Is it limp mode you are encountering I wonder? It could be something simple like a split/perished vacuum pipe leaking causing that to kick in, its not necessarily something expensive, just needs tracing by an honest mechanic. Hope you sort it.

Hi, I have not been here for a long time, but having just bought a Leon Fr pd170, I found this thread as interested in egr delete, can I ask who is 'Darkside' and where are they ?(noticing East Sussex members as work near Ditchling), cheers!

That's good news thanks Yan101, I apologise couldn't wait for reply, earlier in day I had to bite bullet and order a kit and went for Sachs DMF/Clutch/Bearing and Slave cyclinder 338.00 all in whuch I felt seemed like a good deal - it would have been a lot more had I bought the Luk one here on...
