I'm lucky. I got a caddy 1.9 BLS because two people didn't want it. The original owner passed away and left the caddy to his son. His son drove it for a year and sold it to my family member for $1000AUD. What a bargain. The caddy is worth $10,000AUD. I know why they sold it so cheap. The van needed a full overhaul. It had 290,000 when I got it off my family member. I've replaced many engine parts and suspension parts. Turned the EGR off. Put a straight thru exhaust on and gutted the cat. I've practically become a VW technician from everything I've had to learnt fixing the Caddy. Been watching your vids. Cheers for the help. I'll be replacing my turbine next. It makes a metallic noise at idle. Not sure if that's meant to happen. I only noticed the sound after gutting my catalyst.
Great detailed video Nathan, love how straight forward and honest you are, no hiding the bad bits like most on TH-cam, could watch your video everyday, keep em coming sir.
Fair play mate for tagging the other tuners in the description. And it’s true what you’re saying with quality of mapper, I had a 1.6 mini mapped by someone of Facebook with a kess v2 box and the small cost of £65 lol. I literally learnt nothing and the guy who mapped the car didn’t know a lot either. However I had my mk5 golf mapped a little while ago by dtg performance just outside of Essex and they where brilliant. After that experience I actually had a good understanding of how the mapping is achieved and it was a better experience and also got a few dyno runs and a print out. Another great video mate 👍🏻
Hey Jack thank you mate, I definitely wanted to give the people who gave me advice a shout out for sure 👍. I’ve seen a couple of cowboy mappers over the years and since speaking to decent tuners I’d never go anywhere else. Cheapest isn’t always the best.
Just like anything boys pay peanuts get monkeys, a good tuner will always be a bit more then ur fb mart place mapper😅, Everything we do is done in house, we alwys start with a original file, so if ur vehicle is tuned else where we’d source original file, then take it from there, I’ve had far to many call outs for passed tuners files that’s not been correct, yes people have different ways of doing things but some things I’ve seen I’m not days are shocking, files that have just been death mapped, high fuel high boost at 2000rpm shaft snappers, had one start of week demanding 2.2bar on a standard bog kkk 😂
Thank you for the video. Great to see the previous setback hasn't deterred you at all and you've just carried straight on with it. Looking forward to the next installment 👍.
Thanks Karter yes it would have literally emptied the engine if I went any further so lucky I stopped. Exhaust is now fitted and I’m really happy with it.. you’ll see next vid 👍👍
It was a friend of mine that mentioned it and after 2 mins I thought yep your right. Just waiting for the map to suit and it will have 30psi up its ass 👍👍
What a mechanic!! Half the time I have no idea what your saying bro but I listen contentley to every word! You and edd China should hook up for a show!! 😄 hope your well bro!! 🙏
In terms of deisel mapping, might i recomend, Darkside Devolopments in North England. Had a coupple of cars they mapped and they have been amazing. My curent A3 was mapped by them aswell, never had a problem. They properly inspect the cars before they even agree to map it, and if they dont like it they wont touch it. They really are good, highly rated!
Hey mark I’ve seen a lot about dark side and only heard good things, I’m as far south as you can get without getting wet they are such a long way from me. Appreciate the comment 👍
You have a compressor wheel and an exhaust wheel. The inducer is the smaller part of the inlet wheel and the exducer is the larger part. The opposite is true on the exhaust wheel, the large diameter part is the inducer and the small diameter part is the exducer. Keep the videos coming by the way 👍
I came to your channel Nathan for the T5 as I’ve now got my own 140 T5.1 (with side ramp & soon I’ll be swapping in a 6 Way Seat frame on the drivers side etc to make my life x10 easier) but I’m enjoying going back & catching up on your caddy series having seen the work you did on your mate’s last week. Did you do a remap on your T5 too?
Hi lizzy thank you glad the other of topic videos are watchable appreciate the kind words, I have literally just had a remap on my T5 but nothing to fast just a wee boost 😊
Great build! I'm Learning something new with every video thanks Nathan. Let's get the likes up guys 👍👍👍 especially if you learn something like me respect 👊
@@YTDTETV ok mate I understand can't wait until it comes out I am currently fitting a bkd engine myself but I'm struggling at getting driver side driveshaft out
@@alanhowarth1898 is it stuck in the hub? When removing drivers side shaft I just undo the mount on the back of the engine and slide the whole lot out.
Hi mate, can you give me the part number for the v6 turbo you put on the van please? the numbers on your turbo seem to point towards the 2.7 tdi version. great work BTW, youre fuelling my fire!
Hi bud yes sorry my mistake in the video it is the 2.7tdi it’s from. GTB1756VK yes your right you have to turbo the housing slightly and make a few bits fit but it’s such a good turbo 👍👍
Fitted new core to a BKD yesterday and next day Turbo cold side detached itself completely split and broke off the bolted bit on the core 😠what would cause that
Was it a cheap core? I’ve blown a core right on half aswel on a BKD but it was a cheap core and a badly remapped BKD golf. The power spiked in way to hard and blew a few turbos.
I have a fault code, P0234, "overboost condition", do i need to swap the turbo? seems like the biggest pain in the a$$... cant understand the placement of the turbo in that god forsaken vehicle.. wastegate seems to be moving as it should, guessing the turbo is just bad?
Hey bud so it turns out my KESS was a copy 🙈 someone commented on one of my videos not happy. I’ve been looking at DRAKE TDI seen him on Facebook doing good work 👍
Clone kess ftw! People wanna get mad about them but no need spending a couple grand on a genuine one just to flash a couple of your own motors. Nice one will take a look at them, cheers@@YTDTETV
Hey, I’m almost there.. exterior - spoiler - rail cover - wing mirrors, interior - carpet line the walls. That is it I’m using it now and am really happy so we are nearing the end for the build series 👍
Tbh mate if the hardware is the same they’ll still load but yes ur better to be safe than sorry, sw is the software version of what software it’s on maybe early or later ecu with new style map for new emissions etc
And we will get that file sorted out been busy doin couple files for friends, we will map the hybrid in, if you’ve got 4bar we will scale that in n fire a nice hardcut on it, have u heard of n75 conversion?, maybe do that n we can play with n75 give her a deep idle called ‘n75 mod’
Get me a couple logs if you’ve got vdcs or a friend that does fire my the logs so I can have a lookie see how the new Tubski is boostin, don’t put the 4 bar in till I’ve put file on or she’ll overboost
Shaft should not move to such an extent 100% but even on new non BB turbo there will be some play and turbo can have critically worn shaft sleeve even with OK play by hands.
I’ve just got one today Volkswagen caddy van in silver side, loading door, electric windows central locking air-conditioning C20 tdi 104bhp 1.9 2005 in silver turbo is blown got it off mates friend who has not long done clutch, Duel mass flywheel, water pump timing belt, injectors lots of other bits and pieces he just didn’t wanna to spend any more money on it I got it for £250 buzzing, my tits off 👌👌👌👌👌

Thank you Nigel 👍👍 I see it a lot in other videos and the skip important bits or edit stuff out I like to be as open and honest as possible.
Love the video didn't hide anything. You told it how it was and what you did. Brilliant. Looking forward to the next one m8
Thanks mick 👍👍 I’m not an expert in some things I do so I like to share my learning process and hopefully people don’t make the mistakes I do.

Thank you for the video. Great to see the previous setback hasn't deterred you at all and you've just carried straight on with it. Looking forward to the next installment 👍.
Hey Karl thank you sir.. just another speed bump in the road but I’ll get over it. Am finally using the van everyday now and I’m really enjoying it 👍👍
Great video, very educational 🤓. Power is nothing without reliability.... 👍
Thanks Phillip 👍 hopefully there wasn’t to much talking. Yes your rite it definitely needs to be reliable.
Great stuff as usual DT. Amazing how much oil was pumped through in such a few seconds. I'm sure it will sound ace when the Zorst is done.
Thanks Karter yes it would have literally emptied the engine if I went any further so lucky I stopped. Exhaust is now fitted and I’m really happy with it.. you’ll see next vid 👍👍
I watched the other video with the big single exhaust on the back - looks great
Thank you I prefer the single exhaust 🙏👍
Glad you pinch the golf turbo the van will go well 👍
It was a friend of mine that mentioned it and after 2 mins I thought yep your right. Just waiting for the map to suit and it will have 30psi up its ass 👍👍
Thank you just what I needed after a long day! Great watch as always, peace ✌👍
Glad the videos are entertaining for you Simon.. weather is absolutely pony down here, roll on spring already.

That turbo proper had it mate, love the caddy though, wanted one for ages but prices still sky high even for a sdi non turbo.
It definitely exploded 👍 I spent about a month looking for one that wasn’t over priced and not a million miles away.

Sounds a lot nicer today. I’m feeling smug I drove it again too 😉

Hi mate, can you give me the part number for the v6 turbo you put on the van please? the numbers on your turbo seem to point towards the 2.7 tdi version. great work BTW, youre fuelling my fire!
and i take it you had to rotate the cold side and core because the oil inlet is the wrong way round ?
Hi bud yes sorry my mistake in the video it is the 2.7tdi it’s from. GTB1756VK yes your right you have to turbo the housing slightly and make a few bits fit but it’s such a good turbo 👍👍

Which golf did you get turbo off was it the blue one or the black ??
Hi Stuart the turbo came from the blue one, I put an ARL turbo back on the blue golf.
Do you use a genuine Kess v2 to upload your maps ? Also any recommendations on an online map provider now I see FADR have close shop ?

Hey, I’m almost there.. exterior - spoiler - rail cover - wing mirrors, interior - carpet line the walls. That is it I’m using it now and am really happy so we are nearing the end for the build series 👍
and after the remap how is the fuel consumtion
@@dusanposavac4845 it all depends how you drive it, if you drive normal you get more miles but if you drive it hard it will use more 👍
Why does the first cylinder pipe in the manifold look so restricted compared to 3 and 4?
Hi bud I haven’t noticed I wonder if it’s just deceptive on video or because it was soaked in oil.
@@YTDTETV could well be something like that. Good video

Shaft should not move to such an extent 100% but even on new non BB turbo there will be some play and turbo can have critically worn shaft sleeve even with OK play by hands.
I’ve noticed even new ones ever so slightly move, once they have oil pressure the slack is racked up.
@@YTDTETV yep, oil pressure takes the clearances and it runs spot on!
can petrol cars be remapped or onlyturbo diesels
