So... It started off as an intermittent fault but the cold idle revs are at approximately 500, and when I disconnect the idle air control valve, the revs rise to a more normal 1000.

[Mk2] [Turbo] How much to get a clutch and flywheel replaced?

Just wondering how much you guys think it would cost to get a clutch and flywheel replaced on a rev 3 turbo?

Re: black rev3+ turbo Barnehurst, Kent

Im based in Crayford on the border with Barenhurst. Should arrange a local meet. What happened to the one at Bluewater?

I think one in March/April could work. Mine wont be out until then, damn salt :/

Re: black rev3+ turbo Barnehurst, Kent

Yeah im quite close to it. Mine is a black Rev 3 turbo which would have been in that area at the time.

JW Engineering do transmissions right? I need to get down there to sort a clutch problem - sticks to the floor :/

Im thinking about getting the gearbox reconditioned. Should solve this problem and also my 2nd and 3rd gear crunches.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Speedo still not working

I have the same problem with my rev 3. The clocks are reading something (wobbles alot) until it gets up to temperature and then it shows nothing. Checked wiring and clocks. Replaced speed sensor. Still happens. So im going to get the gearbox looked at and see if the sensor is being turned properly b...
