The other options of getting an ACE TC and 517 VB would only do you good if you plan on upgrading the power, otherwise the stock one is pretty good, i've just had mine serviced after it was replaced by Audi at 60k miles in 2010 and now is just under 149k miles, so for the last almost 90k it hasn't seen an oil change and i was very pleasantly surprised to find no metal shavings on the magnets nor any terribly burnt oil, in fact it looked quite well for its mileage and age.
Thanks for the advice.....Aye I'm going to bite the bullet this week the, question will be if i can get it done locally or get the car transported to Liverpool or Oxford. Either way its going to hurt me wallet...
