gotta compress the calliper piston back to make room for new pads.
Looking back at it , it was embarrassing but yeah I’ve done it since with the correct tool 😅
Where can I buy led strips
Ali express . You will need separate load resistors too
I've got a 1.6fsi in my vw eos, it gets 28mpg around town and 33 on the motorway, and I'm a careful driver and always tey to keep the revs low. I couldn't believe when you showed you got over 50mpg.
Wow that’s a big difference. On a normal drive I get at least 33 in extreme urban driving in London
Same here I get around 7l/100km wich is 33mpg. Audi says its 6.6l so I think 7l is ok
Because you drive this car, I’m giving you a subscribe, like and comment
Thanks , much appreciated :)
hola buenas. sabrias decirme cual es la medida de los tubos de silicona que usaste en la admision. es para saber el diametro de la mariposa de admision. un saludo !
The diameter to the throttle body pipes are 70mm . For the RamAir intake you need a 70-80mm reducer pipe
My first car was a Oceanic Blue 2004 MK5. I only had it for about 5 months but man did I go places, and it was hassle-free, fun and comfortable. I've since had a Volvo 740 (now scrapped), a Volvo V70 R-Design which is a my current daily and a Volvo 940 which I sold yesterday. And even though I couldn't be happier with my V70, I still think about the Golf sometimes. The new owner lives in the same city so I see it out on the roads frequently and every time it puts a smile on my face.
Nice to see the car live on well in good hands :)
I've got 2007 golf 1.6 mpi automatic as a second car and on 15 inch alloys and soft seats is super smooth and comfortable. My previous 2017 308 and current 2022 Tucson with their plastic seats and stiff suspension feel like riding a wheelbarrow. Despite golf being the slowest car I've ever had and having broken cruise control I enjoy driving it the most.
Vw know how to make a car that’s very enjoyable no matter what trim level or engine size :)
Wait a minute, 50mpg? That's like 4.2l/100km, right? How is that possible? My 1.6fsi likes to have at least 7l/100km (33mpg) when driving around 110-120km/h (68-75mph) on the highway. The lowest fuel consumption I've ever had on the highway was 5.5l/100km (42mpg), I was only going downhill, and I barely touched the gas pedal. Mine is a 2004 model, and I only give it Natural 98 for fuel. I'm not sure if you name your fuel differently, tho' However, you have a really nice looking golf, and the editing was really good👍
With my RamAir intake , NGK Iridium TT spark plugs and Castrol edge 5w30 oil I was able to increase the MPG . The fuel I use is Shell V-power which is 5% ethanol and 99 octane. I can get more than 42 easily which also driving abit more sporty :)
Also thanks for the compliments , much appreciated
@Kamarlpringle Ohhh, okay, I didn't know that custom parts could make such a huge difference in mpg. Thank you for the clarification 👍 I've never really noticed much of a difference in the range between running my car on Natural 95 or 98 or even 100. But the difference in performance is pretty noticeable between 95 and 98. So I only fill her up with 98 😉
I have 1.6fsi golf with automatic gearbox. My fuel consumption is almost same as yours @bendr251. 4.2l/100km is insane even for diesel engines.
*Promo SM*
Got my Golf 1.6 FSI when it had done 45k. It's now on 62k. Runs best on Supereme unleaded from Esso or V-Power from Shell and to avoid engine rattle when pulling away hard, especially on hills. For engine oil, I use Motul Specific 504 to 507 100% Fully Synthetic and change it annually with a new oil filter. Prefer to keep the 195 65 15 size tyres for potholes, etc, and maintain tyre pressures at 32 psi instead of the 29 psi listed to improve fuel economy. I found at 60k, car started to make ticking noise on cold starts but it only lasts for a minute or so and driver side electric window is starting to play up but other than this, the car has never let me down. It's not the most powerful car I've owned but definitely the most reliable.
Very nice maintenance 👌🏾
I maintenance my golf 1.6 fsi when it breaks :D 275k km on it
were buy radio from dose it conect to subwoother
The radio is from AliExpress and a sub can be connected via the the wiring harness
Hi, which cold air intake is that and is it a straight fit?
Intake is RamAir designed for the 1.9 tdi . The Heat shield bolts on with the same mounting points by the battery. You have to loosen and adjust some of the coolant radiator pipes to place them around the heat shield. You will also have to fabricate/ add a hole for the breather pipe and the MAF sensor
Jeez. Those tecs would have a field day with mine. Yours is factory fresh in comparison 😂
Hahaha , yeah these guys really look over everything 😆 . Did wish I had my Iridium TT spark plugs back tho
damn the exhaust sounds great! Did u just fitted an diffrent backbox?
Thanks bro , It’s a back box delete.
McShit!!
Everything in moderation :D
Sounds bangin the exhaust
Thanks bro 😎
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks bro 2024 has just started !!
What size are your wheels?

Clean looking golf you got there bro and the mods make the car look that much better 😮
Thanks , there’s a lot you can do with golf’s . So much better than stock 😄
more of this!
Hey mate! Loved the video! I do have a question, what brand r32 exhaust did u put on? And have u deleted some parts like backbox etc?
The exhaust is from MaxtonDesign and I do have a backbox delete.
@@Kamarlpringlehi just curious is this the v.1 or v.2 maxton r32 exhaust?
@it_be_muhammad7599 It was the V2 that I ordered.
@@Kamarlpringle im thinking of doing something simular and want a backbox delete along with a sportscat mod, but not sure about the backbox delete cause of mot so wondering how mots have gone for you with the mod?
I don't even know anything about cars let alone a Volkswagen, but I will tell you this, this video is therapeutic as hell !
Great car. Good luck finding insurance for new drivers.
👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
a super bad car from the volkswagen group. if u want to lose money go and buy this shit box
Lose money on what ? please elaborate Dennis
Trash
They need more Than that , they are shite
More than what ?
Nice vid, have you considered turboing it (ik itll be expensive)
Thanks , and yes I have considered extensively it haha . It would be interesting and expensive but I rather do an engine swap tbh .
We need more vids like this
bro is gonna become a big boy youtuber one day i can feel it
Thanks for the support 👊🏾👊🏾
Good video mate. Cinematography has really come on... Makes me (again) wanna make a video on the beast
HE IS BACK!!! Really professionally filmed and reviewed!
Amazing 🔥
HARRRDDD🔥🔥🔥🔥
Solid video, keep em coming 💪🏽💪🏽🫡🫡
I’m paying £161 per month to RAC black box for my 1.2L 2nd Gen Clio. I’ve done 6 months and have 6 months left to go.
Put the music lower yo can’t even hear u
1 litre engine paying 3k, 250 a month. your lucky
Same bro 😢
1.2 corsa paying 5k I’m 18 btw
@@1Zeesilva 5k??? Isn’t that more than the corsa 😂
@@David-ct7lu 5x more these guys are robbers
@dripjuice3830 honestly idk what’s going on with insurance prices for young drivers at the moment. Most of the old tricks don’t work anymore or just aswell and prices are so high
Nice vid How was the installation of the rcd360? Any common issues with battery drain?
Yh it was pretty straight forward , all I used was a t20 and a trim removal tool. Be careful with the clips when removing the top tray . My car is a 2008 model year where battery drain isn’t an issue at all . I believe there is a decoder wiring harness that you can buy to solve those issues.
Where you getting your parts for your build bro?
Lots of different places . Infotainment and led lights came from ali express, headlights , rear bumper came from eBay and my shark fin antenna came from AUTODOC , exhaust came from Maxtondesigns.
Hola, so my main question is Black box is mandatory for new drivers? Because I also got insurance but when I called to verify, they post black box to monitor my miles and driving
It’s not mandatory but sometimes it will depend on the car
Not mandatory, but unfortunately all the companies will charge extortionate amounts to go without.
Is 4000 mileage okay for new driver to pick ? Even thou you have job
Really depends on how long your commute is and if you live in a city and won’t be driving so long for shopping and socialising. For me personally I needed at least 5000 miles in my first year
I'm with them right now on my 1.6 civic, haven't gotten any warnings yet but it's only been my first week lol.
I am with them
I’m with them as well right now, I always feel like I’m going to be flagged because I drive a torque converter automatic, and just by very nature of a TC they produce a shit ton of torque off the line, and I end up shooting forwards at traffic lights, lol. I was previously with Ticker but got banned on another car. It’s a Hyundai i30 1.6, and I’m paying about 2.6k at the moment. Honestly, pay by mile insurance is only about 1k more for no box (well, you do have a mile tracker, but who cares), and I can have it spread across 12 months, so I might go with that, but I’m gonna lose NCD built up since June…
just had a year with them and was constantly over the speed limit and been 100+ many times with no consequences
Who were u with?
Same as me , Tescos
Did they not send a warning?
@@adeshinaomoziku6028 I got one warning about being over speed limit but they didn't do anything
@@zeRosaabwho were u with?
This was 11 months, look at petrol prices now🤣
It’s crazy man 😓😓
Hey mate nice led! How was the wiring for the sequential led, is there any checklight pop up after u install? If u dont mind to share thankyou!
Thanks! For the constant 12v supply from the ignition, I spliced it into the headlight leveler wire . I then spliced it into the indicator power wire and the earth. Once the load resistor is connected to the indicator power wire and earth wire in parallel it works with no hyper flash or dash errors.
Lol just got Tesco bank box todsy 1100 on a 1.2 polo
