Voiceover is great to explain what goes on during timelapse! Keep up the great work, you'll be at 100K in notime :)

Love the Golf GTI/R32/R content :) I've just started restoring a Corrado 16V

The way this guy puts in work doing amazing things 👏

Enjoying the voice-over! Great job

Timelapse with commentary: genius! 👍

Love these videos as your skill especially with VW cars is so amazing, great channel.

Great video Dean well done getting it sorted 👍

Voice over instead of music is brilliant. I usually fast forward the music bits.

Wicked video as per usual.. very detailed voice overs spot on.. 👍 👌

Great job getting the engine running sweet! Re the ABS fault - I had one on my 21yo Golf 1.6. Checked the pins on the ABS ECU vehicle side connector (circuit diagram available online) and diagnosed a failed wheel speed sensor. All fixed with a £6 aftermarket part and right as rain now. So my advice is - check the sensors before fiddling with replacement ECUs or the hydraulics

Got there in the end, that's all that matters really. Great vlog on the GTI Dean, which cars next to do I wonder.

Great video as always thanks! Hope the traction control fault isn't the abs pump. It's a common failure on the mk5 golf's so much so that vw used to have a recall on them. Mine failed but had to replace the pump at my own expense typically.

Great content as always - thank you.

Hi from Durham Dean 👋 👍 wow you nailed it "" eventually "" ( click the top right and you looked up to left effectively looking at our top right ) wohooo 👌👌🤣 it's only took you how long 🙈 lol pmsl but great job getting gti done my pal has a mk5 gti dsg with flappy paddle shift and its a beast mate knowt special but it is pretty quick I just don't like flappy paddles sometimes cos they turn with the wheel and bit awkward to change ish or if pull out junction not so slow can't flick to second so I use selacta to knock forward into 2nd then go bk to paddles but dsg hmm good until they not 🙈 and wonder if new abs module not been coded in ?? Or abs sensor maybe hopefully 👌 thanks for your time be safe and see you soon 👍 👋

Great stuff as always Dean 👍👍👍

Good conclusion to a very interesting series of videos Dean. Another great motor from the salvage yard. Your tips on diagnosis are brilliant, based on your past career as a VW Tech. 👍😎

Loved the video. Fantastic

Again great video, Dean! As always, the part you bought comes from the socalled "Zulieferer" Pierburg. All VAG factories and others like Mercedes buy from these often smaller factories ATE Pierburg Bosch, which are specialized on a few products. They sell their products to the great carmakers and sometimes they are not allowed to sell these products directly to customers. I've already seen that the productnumber was erased but 100% identical.

I had the same issue with my '08 GTI, turned out that the ABS module was faulty, infact it was a known issue throughout VW, I believe there was a recall in some markets except South Africa 🇿🇦 . They actually wanted me to pay R40 000 ($2700), for a replacement module. I was left with no choice but to fight with VWSA until they agreed to replace the module free of charge. My point was that this was a known problem with these cars, i should not be made to suffer just because my car was out of warranty. This happened in 2016.

@@craigladewig3158 I’m not sure if you can swap certain parts…it was about 10 years ago when I had the car… I had the code which would not clear….the car had no mechanical issues with brakes/ABS. Until the day I sold it. I had the car around 5 years.

Your face when that boost pipe came off,, gave me giggles

Great video well worth the wait

Looking good Dean.

Class stuff dean as usual👍👍

Nice one Dean love the Golf GTi

Nice one once again Dean

In VCDS, actual boost will always show at least atmospheric pressure as the sensor is before the throttle body and not a true Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor. The specified boost is a red herring as it's the expected pressure within the manifold. You'll never have specified and actual meeting at idle.

Great video as always

Way better having voiceover than random music, good job!

Great video. Would be great to do a final update on the ABS system fault

Great series the mk5 gti 👍👍

Nice work. 👍💪

that reaction when the part gone off made me laugh 😂

Thanks, I’ve always wanted a Gti maybe it’s finally time to trade the Tdi in and go for it.

Great content 👍 Great channel 👍

Enjoyed the videos on this one 👌

Talking over the Timelapse was excellent, great idea! Hope the abs wasn’t that big a pain🤞

Very nice series!! Well done dean. Walk in the park for you really 😎Interest in buying if your putting it up for sale. What sort of money to buy? Happy to buy with abs fault unfixed

You could even see on the valve that the VW/Audi marks had been ground off!

That mk5 golf GTI has the original orange dip stick, they all crack and fall into the sump also cause vac leak as the rubber seals crack…. Be worth changing to the updated yellow one.

Got this same colour Golf albeit a 2.0 GT TDI which needs replacement injectors. 🫣 Need to get it back on the road. Great job as ever on yours mate. 💪👌

Had to do an abs pump on an octavia vrs of similar age, managed to get a 2nd hand one with the right code that survived fine for a few years til we scrapped it. Was a relatively easy job until I got to the seized bleed nipples!

the part you changed isnt a boost sensor, its commonly known as a N95 valve, it controls the boost pressure from the turbo, it operates the wastegate according to instruction from the ecu, its a more technical version of the old bleed valves that old school turbos used to use.

In my opinion the best way to move the alternator pins back is to find a socket that fits over the pin and use a bolt to pull it back

Nicely done 👍😊

Nice job Dean. Hope the ABS is nothing major.

Top work as ever Dean. I had a similar thing with a A3 8P Febi strut top, half the 8P0 part number was ground off. So they clearly make them for VAG!

nice car there.

Another great video ! What camera do you use ?

I do like the voice over.

Don't be too harsh about signals. I just found out my right front indicator isn't working. It flashes on the dash and there is no "bulb out" warning, the side repeater and the rear works but the front doesn't, changed the bulb, still not working. I have no idea how long it's been faulty. Bumper off tomorrow to clean all the connections.

That dang fantastic plastic

Even easier way to do the alternator bushes is put a deep socket on the back of the Bush bigger then the Bush (3/8) put the bolt through from the back of the socket and tighten it will pull the Bush back into the alternator and then you won't damage anything with the hmer

My mk5 gti has just recently got a ABS fault says it’s the rear right at fault goes of and comes back on hope it’s just a sensor

Hi mate, Looking at buying a 2008 s3 8p but he’s said input shaft is starting to get noisy Any ideas what this is and what it would cost roughly to fix

The slating of a BMW driver for not signalling when turning RIGHT even though you appreciated the fact Audi drivers sometimes do the same. Also, assuming he was coming off a roundabout he'd have been turning left?

Vauxhall and Saab also use that exact same Pierburg BPV for boost control. They are generally around £25.

I love the fact you tell us about day by day on your rebuilds. Other you tubes hide this. Great work bro as always 👉👍

A bit odd to ask here but what happened to james from savage garage?

Great content as usual Dean, glad you've sorted it, well done.

Sorry to labour this detail on a great video, your 100% correct, apply the system of car control on approach to every hazard and apply each part, if no signal is required……it’s not applied, this is a dynamic process and if the situation changes it’s applied,ie when exiting a roundabout, there may be no vehicles however a person on foot may benefit so it will be applied. Bet you wish you hadn’t commented🤣🤣🤣🚗🚗🚗

@SavingSalvage

Yep I only indicate when it will benefit someone, if it’s a large roundabout then I will indicate regardless as there’s too much to see if anyone will benefit that I may miss, however with a small roundabout like that I can easily see any other cars or pedestrians that would benefit and then indicate accordingly

Is the gearbox leaking oil or is it residue from a previous service?

Superb result Dean, and another really wel put together video - hope you get the ABS sorted, then she‘s good for new lease of life! Keep ’em comin‘ Best JCHK

My engine type. Mine is the Audi TT same fundamental engineering, just looks different. Are looks fundamental?

Hi Dean 👍

The lugs on that boost pipe have worn away. Will keep happening till you get a new pipe

👂🏻 How did it go lol And push them alternator back in a vice or bolt and plate affair you’ll snap the lug off using the bolt and tapping stick.

If BMW and AUDI would fit indicators as standard that would help. Seems that so many drivers of all makes and models don't bother indicating. Or they indicate right, and then take exit 2 off a roundabout. I feel and share your pain with this problem. I drive an Audi and a truck, I indicate. Edit: Id also like to point out that trucks WILL and I DO pull onto a roundabout if cars are not indicating. Not indicating, is actually indicating straight on. So turning right and not indicating is likely to end up with an HGV across the front of person who didnt indicate. They are usually quick to indicate their displeasure with their horns. Dashcam shows indicators🤣

I hate that indicating right and taking 2nd exit!

What a pain in the arse with those smaller issues. At least it came good in the end.

It is a well known fact that BMW are fitted with indicators. It's just they never fitted an indicator stalk to work them.

You should try driving round Devon mate. No one indicates, they all sit at the roundabout waiting for a written invitation and they all do 20 miles an hour.
