Use a vacuum pump like the Pela 6000. No more messy oil changes. Works like a treat


Pela 6000 knockoff by ND-Photo.nl, on Flickr

i'm gonna get one for the next change. i need to do this change asap as there is only half the amount of oil in the engine and can't top up, as i'm not sure if the mechanic put pd oil in it when he did the cambelt because he did say something about pd oil (the ASV isn't pd, is it?). so gonna get them to do it but bring my oil and filter. i ordered a oil tray of amazon aswell, not gonna need that now either.

Started stocking up on bits and pieces. In two minds whether to wait and do it all at once or do each bit as it arrives...:shrug:

New Cupra and R badges all round
New wheel caps all round
Blue caliper paint and new Brembo stickers
Windscreen replacement booked (couldn't be repaired :cry:)

From my RR :)

Here's a photo of my front mount intercooler

All fitted not too bad for 200 quid needed a few different clips and changed some of the silicone joiners but all good.

I have also added a new drivers door locking module. LED mod is complete inside the car now starting to do the exterior lights. I done the reverse lights yesterday the change in them is epic.

Well impressed with them. Took almost 5 weeks to get here but worth it. Then fitted some Heko wind deflectors

The oil seals in my k03s turbo are leaking like mad. I am picking a replacement up on Saturday. I will be sending mine away for hybrid after holiday.

Also got a new exhaust mount and will be giving it a service when I put the turbo on :)
