sounds like an intake leak. My car idles smooth, however it runs super rich for a few seconds after it drops to idle. When my car had an intake leak and some leaks in the intercooler piping (1 between tb and im) it bounced and like to die on me

I will definitely check for leaks on that intake part man, the other thing is the turbo is leaking where its attached to the manifold, I have to tighten those bolts and the manifold ones too, will that make it misfire.

Ill take pics tomorrow, still missing the rear window, but ill get her all cleaned up and take a few for sure.

[onemoremile]

That car is so cursed. You poor poor bastard.

[onemoremile]

just kidding.

[prey]

just kidding.

I got hopes, sleeper style lol.

[onemoremile]

Good luck with it. It is kinda cursed at least a little bit. On the plus side it has the history that can only come from his all natural workshop.

That car has big hopes and a bright future. Take care of it and hook it up right.

Ill try man, I don't know how much more shit its gonna need lol. It already has started with a new battery and needing new tires.

[prey]

The car has missing shit everywhere, like bolts, exposed wires, the oxygen sensor was unplugged and thats not it, i fixed most of it and yea I got the car idling nice, I had to reposition the MAF sensor. It doesn't die out on me and no more black smoke. other than that I gotta scan it for codes. I also made the bumper fit nicely even tho it has a big ass FMIC behind it (zipties FTW). Ill post pics after I clean the exterior of the car, The interior is looking good as of now.

Thanks ROB, for half assing shit everywhere on the car.

[AudiA4_20T]

nice

[njm23]

way I see it, you picked up some elses project, you should really expect that. Unless I took that wrong you sound seriously pissed about it, but whatever if thats the case. I actually went up and checked out the car myself, goodluck with it! Has potential, get a nice new front bumper for it to fit that fmic and clean it up shud be lookin good.

I dont think it was ROB's project really, the car was in good condition when he got it, all he worked on was the engine and the suspension. The interior has missing shit everywhere like bolts and nuts and what not, rattly ride. It runs tho thats the good part. Hey Clint, I called you but I guess u are busy now, I mite need the clutch done. I can order the parts if you can do it for me. let me know..

[sean1.8t]

haha!

you didn't expect missing nuts and bolts on Rob's car?

haha, go buy a different car noob. you don't deserve it

[JumboBlack1.8]

NO need for that.....the guy ain't a "noob". he's doin pretty f'ckin well fixing up this car.....does giving someone shit make u feel like a big shot?

[prey]

^^ Hey Jumbo, the car runs nice now, I found out that the reason for the 02s unplugged was because they were shot, i plugged them in, did 2 pulls and again misfires lol, so, I unplugged it again and cleaned up the plugs with some MAF cleaner(hey, it worked lol). I should get new 02's. will that make those little misfiring issues go away?

[Poopie]

i have an front 02 sensor for and AEB if you want to buy it. $40. Is a bosche universal spliced into the factory plug. It worked great on my old car before it got totaled and parted out.

Can i drive the car to you please, can u take a look at it. I also need a clutch installed. Do you know how?

[Poopie]

no prob man. yes i can do clutch installs. i'll pm you.

[JumboBlack1.8]

Sounds like ur really started to get things figured out.....these Tapp files are really sensitive. If your hardware isn't completely figured out, it's going to idle like crap.

What kinda misfiring issues are you having? just at idle? WOT? cruising?

mostly at idle, the car pulls like a mother at 22psi, the clutch just goes crazy lol. I have fuked up shit everywhere in the engine bay, plugged cone filter, had a dirty MAF, The fukin 90 degree elbow from intake to turbo is sealed with some sealant, way to cheap out on something rite?

[JumboBlack1.8]

Wow....seems like those issues might go away when you properly clean the MAF and seal the intake......damn, that sounds bad

[prey]

I already cleaned the MAF, but i think i sooted the plugs up black when i plugged the 02 in and the car just started dumping fuel inside, I saw black smoke. i unplugged it immediately, the misfiring went away but wasn't as smooth when i had new plugs and 02 sensor was unplugged, So rite now i think its the 02 sensor.

[Poopie]

your front or rear o2 sensor?

[prey]

your front or rear o2 sensor?

the front one, when i tugged on the cable that was unplugged.

[Poopie]

damn. you kind of need that 02 sensor. haha.

[prey]

damn. you kind of need that 02 sensor. haha.

yea, send it if it worked fine. wats ur paypal.

[prey]

^^ does the plug color look like peanut butter?

[prey]

One more thing guys, there is only one bolt holding the turbo to the manifold as of now.

[JumboBlack1.8]

Is that how it was being driven before the accident?

[Poopie]

^^ does the plug color look like peanut butter?

yup thats the one

[20vpower]

i wanna see some pics of this thing all t-boned and junk

[prey]

I asked Rob, " One bolt holding the turbo to manifold, come on man". his answer was, " You must have ran them off, done cmon me". I was like wow, i shouldn't listen to him at all. I have driven the car like 40 miles did like 4 or 5 pulls at max boost.

[Russell2686]

ah man should have searched rosatis name on here, that cars been through a lot.

Didn't you have a b5 already?(oh yeah, 2001.5 judging by your "garage") Should have put that $ into an ASP kit for your car and called it a day.

Goodluck with getting things sorted out

[GramCracker]

On the plus side it has the history that can only come from his all natural workshop.

That's an understatement!

Congrats on buying a great car. I've ridden in it multiple times, and its just great. You have a real keeper right there!

This kid has a lot of balls to come on this forum and talk shit.

We all know that ATP manifolds bolts back out, thats what he is talking about.

He also claimed that the car had bad axles , because it makes a clicking sound when turning......

So I replied that the splash guard is rubbing up against the tire, which it is......... NOOB.

To come on MY FORUM and talk shit is really getting to me Preyash. You know nothing about cars and should consider yourself lucky that I helped you so much w/ the techincal parts and 24 voicemails you left me over stupid shit.

You moved a MAF around, congrats.


I know you dont have anything negative to say to my face, so dont say it on a forum , Buddy.

Russel, the car has been through a lot, Yes , Then the engine was rebuilt......... NOOB.

And sean was right, you should expect shit like this. You couldnt do HALF of what I did.

Wanna talk about cheaping out? HAH! You got the car fixed in your driveway by some fuck from NY when it needed to be fixed by a REAL Body shop and fixed, THE RIGHT WAY. So lets not talk about cheaping out on things.

Exposed wires? Hes talking about the annoying P/S cooler by the FMIC. Rattly ride? Its on coilovers. WTF are you talking about Rattly b/c it doesnt handle like a stock a4 , which you only know about.

[Rosati]

Ok, I just called him , we spoke about any concerns.

My problem is that he made the car that I wanted to sell to my fellow B5'ers out to be a POS.

Which it is not.

That is my problem. I would never sell anything less than something I would buy - - For instance, I wouldnt make someone drive up from MD, or PA which was going to happen, come here and have them expect anything less than what was described.

I just want to be clear.

Preyash should have spoke to me before coming on here just to hear what I told him he has to do anyway :

1- clean up the car

2- New sensors/Oil/Tune up

3- Vag and post logs for the boys to decipher


Simple as that.

[Russell2686]

shit im a n00b, sorry ill be quiet in "your forum".

guess 3 bolts backed out of the mani-turbo in 3 pulls and the drive home.

[t1demont1]

how long is it taking you to spool with 3 studs missing prey?
