Hello and welcome to the Cars and Engineering RU-vid channel!
A just for fun channel base on all things related to cars and engineering.
Current Project is a Volkswagen Polo 9N3 GTI, this car has a factory 1.8 20v turbo engine inside.
The main goal of the project is to turn the car into a Track focused daily driver, starting from the ground up I'm going to be personally doing all the work myself and only using specialists when its absolutely needed, I'm not looking to get things right first time but I am looking to learn things and hopefully be entertaining for you!

If you think this channel is something youd be interested in then please make sure you subscribe and hit the bell!

Nice job man. I had to tear off the entire front end of my passat after the accessory belts shredded and threw off the timing belt by a few notches. But now that it's apart, I see that big silly air pump just easily accessible to remove. Now after this vid I know how to plug it up properly!
@CarsandEngineering
@CarsandEngineering 5 дней назад
I think the passat engine bays are packaged a bit tighter than the polo but it is possible witout taking the front off depending on engine fitted to the vehicle

Great video thanks! It mite be worth while having a little voltimeter gauge wired into stereo loom. So you can monitor constant voltage behaviour. Ive got 1 due to a plug under steering fluid resivour breaking and causing a drain on my battery idling after a while but recharged over 1500rpm. Its like a alternator signal wire/plug. Ive got a ibiza 6l tdi my main reasons for doing the battery relocation is for quick access to steering resiovour, fan temp sensor that ive got swtich wired too and of course to show off painted 02m 4h shiftr braided lines. Hoses and ally rad. Mate whats with the foil on box mount? I give 250 for all 3 vibra technics
@CarsandEngineering
@CarsandEngineering 5 дней назад
firstly thank you ive got a digital dash fitted which gives me voltage via OBD so that a good indicator. The foil on the box mount is to keep the polyurethane in the mount as these are custom made mounts there is a video on the channel showing how i did it

In a perfect world yes but ive worked with what ive currently got and its been in the car for six months and its still holding strong. I will relocate the earth point at a later date but at the moment its doing the job. When i get a cage welded in then ill weld in a earth point on something more substantial

Thank you very much for your video ... I had bought 330 ohm 10 w ceramic but I still have the secondary air pump fault P0411 do you think I should buy the same resistors of the same quality as yours shown on the video please? I have been erasing the faults from time to time for weeks ... I deleted N249 and N112... thank you for your help

You wont be able to use resistors to get rid of the seconday air intake code im afraid. This code can only be disabled by programming it out of the ECU by a Tuner or specialist

Thank you for this beautiful video... but I admit that I have been looking for months... I removed the N249 and I put 2 x 330ohm/10w resistor under the intake manifold and connected the DValve hose under the manifold and I want to remove the N112 and on the secondary air pump power socket I must also put a resistor or not? because then I would find myself with 3 resistors in total and all the removal kits only have 2 x resistors in total... I am lost... I put a 330/10 resistor to try on the pump and I failed P0411and P1297...thank you very much

For optimum performance never let anything touch the bottom of the tank . Make a cheap wooden frame to suspend the head from tie down straps or something. Then you will see the results of 10 inducers ( the 30 litre version has 10 )

hello i'm trying to tap m10x1.5 but in the kit i got it has inserts? it says to use a 13/32 drill so i did but when i used the drill to make the hole & begin to turn the tap it gets stuck?? i can't tap through for some reason.. don't know what i'm doing wrong
@CarsandEngineering
@CarsandEngineering 4 месяца назад
So the kit is telling you to use an imperial drill size to cut a metric thread? You need a 8.5mm drill bit for a normal m10x1.5 thread If it’s got inserts then I’m not sure exactly without seeing the kit

yeah I'm not sure sometimes the data does conflict. Unless you're tapping holes for aircraft use or heavy industry I'm sure a 4.2mm will be ok haha
