Yep is expensive, but also RWD rather than the haldex pair. the merc has a proper front diff on the revised car there all damn expensive, doubly so when compared to lease costs of an R golf and in the real world not that much faster the M2 certainly looks the best by a mile (Audi thats how you do f...

what did you melt with the laser when no one was looking ;) My boss might be reading this :biggrin2: ... but there was a funny hot plastic smell :boots: i am sure you behaved 100% professional at all times btw did you ever find those youtube vids of that guy in Germany messing about with a high pow...

lots of bits of metal and then ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Some real engineering for a change, not just this software stuff :beerchug: I've spent the last 2 weeks writing LabVIEW test software so it made a real change today to work on a laser powerful enough to blind you instantly - that's when engin...

The TC is triggered by differences in rotational speed of the wheels as sensed by the ABS sensors, so if the front tyres are worn enough for the radius to be different enough from the rear tyres (a different make of tyre may exaggerate the difference) then it's entirely possible for the TC to be tr...

My RS3 would happily spin the fronts, as a four wheel drive car it was pretty pony. a couple of things you need to do to improve this first ditch the sh1t conti tyres for MPSS's the difference is unreal, this will also cure tram-lining and remove the 2-3 inch of centre slop / dead zone on the steer...

Not doubting you Dave at all, but I am surprised. I thought a big reason for moving to this sort of differential was so the car would drive the front wheels only when not being pushed hard, therefore waste less energy to the drivetrain and increase the mpg. Bang goes my assumption! there is a dyno ...

He messed up saying the current Golf R was permenant AWD though, lol it has been since gen 2, and gen IV has at least 10% to the rear and can adjust power front to back in about 0.25 of a second, a bit faster on gen V it works better than the vast majority of the quattro systems especially with tor...

First golf to hit £40k i reckon !! To warrant that price though it'll have to be a limited run of say 4000 cars, If they do that its gonna hold its price pretty well. Sad thing is though it appears to be manual only ??? OMG no DSG why ??? first? the MKVI R to my spec was 43k and i missed a fair bit...

i do not like the design of the stock car, to fussy and out of balance compared to the 8P imo
