I want to try and get the Syncro up on a rolling road as I don't believe it's operating to it's full potential. Does anyone know of a rolling road near Bristol that understands DJ Waterboxers?
cheers,
Rich

TSR at Bilgewater.

Has made an enormous difference to the DJ, which has all the same components as a mkII golf.
They can cope with 4 wheel drive, if necessary.

Tom was the operator.

Ohh. That looks ideal Simon.
So do they do they make all the necessary adjustments then to get it spot on?
Thanks,
Rich

I think I was lucky and they were not busy 0900hrs!! Tom spent about 1 1/2 hours fiddling with the timing and the mixture, did several runs before that power run. I would ask next time for a full power mixture analysis, as I know how to adjust this on the AFM
. I will be going there once a year for a check up, and will not change any setting in between.
They are a VW specialist, mine was the first T3 they had had.
80 quid I think.
They said that with such a smooth power delivery they could guarentee that everything was working as it should, which is reassuring.
The 112bhp as quoted by VW is on a naked engine without even a water pump, so pleased with my 105.

Cheers Simon - all booked in with TSR for the end of the month.
It'll be interesting to see what it turns up!
