Swapping sausages - TDI conversion thread

[Dave Sausages]

Good work dude! Is the dip stick going to be ok, or will it need extending?

Oh yeah - I did that as well. Hopefully it'll be accessible when the front end is back on - hard to tell as I don't have a front cross member.

[Dave Sausages]

I'll finish it off tonight and get it out to you tomorrow all being well

if l knew what l was looking at Mr Sausages l would say Reg has done a fantastic job on your wagen, but l don't, but by reading the thread he surely has

[Dave Sausages]

Reg is doing a blinding job, he's more cleverer than he is stupid looking

ebay seller cancelled my ecu order, ****!

luckily found another secondhand one which is marginally cheaper, just hope it works...

Fucking eBay knobends, I've had that a few times, normally after 2 weeks of waiting !!!

Sell my T4 ? I'd rather stick wasps up my butt !!!

I'm not as green as I am cabage looking.


You want good news or the bad Dave?





Bad,

That revcounter wont swap over.




Good

Seat clocks are all working fine now. Need to extend that speedo drive wire as it doesn't reach the doo hickey on the gearbox.

And you'll need to sort out the clock binnacle....

[Dave Sausages]

You fucking beauty!

Best I get my finger out my poo tube

That's the annoying thing, it was due to arrive today

[Thebigredone]

I swear they have no intention of sending the parts out, absolute wankers, I always wait till I have all the parts before starting now as I get pissed with stuff not arriving, I know your situation is different tho, hope the new one turns up sharpish so you can continue, I'm enjoying reading the updates 👍

[Dave Sausages]

Thank you dude

[regcheeseman]

Clocks dont fit in the dash too well, you may want to chuck some lumps of 4x2 in there

Or different set of T4 upgrade type clock if there is such a thing....

Dash went back in tonight, speedo wires got extended, hybrid interior loom built - need that ECU now.

[hairyjerry]

this is far better than a good book, and the longer it goes on the better it gets. Sorry.

[Dave Sausages]

Needs more pics, a graphic novel it is not

[Dave Sausages]

Tonight I finally finished welding/grinding/spraying the front clip, will be delivering to you tomorrow Reg
