I had until recently a Seat Altea 2.0 tdi with a K&N panel filter and could not make my mind up if the car benefitted from it or not. The VAG tdi powerplant doesn't particularly lend it's self well to a 0-60 pull, in the real world a diesel with it's bags of torque will show greater results from an ingear dash from say 30-50, 40-60 0r 50-70 as in an overtaking manoeuvre. That would be more relevant in my opinion. Good video mate, keep 'em coming.
I think it takes a little while for the map sensor to adjust to the different air flow in order to make changes to the air/fuel ratio. A test later on (after more runs) would show better results therefore. I've seen some videos on induction (Ramair induction £150) kits on 2.0 tdi and you get turbo whooshing noises! Enjoying your videos bud, thanks
I went for a full induction kit, cone filter and 2.75inch silicone pipping straight to throttle body, without testing before and after can feel it pulling harder and plus big bonus the putushhhh noise for when I'm feeling childish lol
You get my sub str8 off due to Lauren’s facial expression on your intro superb . Devoid of all emotion I was hoping for at least a millimetre of eyebrow raise in a questioning way but no nothing . Really good vid . Thinking about it I should imagine when the factory figures are released the car will have nothing in it , no passengers , limited fuel , no boot full of tools lol 😅, in a windless environment so .5 over its sterile time is not to be sniffed at tbh. Right now to watch the rest of your vids
I've read posts around the internet saying if you want to change the induction/filter you should get a tune done immediately after and that's what makes a bigger difference. I don't know if it's true but I suppose it wouldn't hurt.
Hi Mati You said in the video "if there are any questions" etc. I have a 1.9Tdi 3 door hatchback 8P1 March 2009 After seeing your great video, I have only one question to ask can you please tell e the Audi part number of your engine cover. I look forward to your response Tony
Great video, nice easy, road-side mod! I've gotta say, I'm surprised you haven't put spacers on this yet! Those RS4 style alloys are so aggressive as they are, pushing them out a little and filling the arches a bit more would be a nice touch!
@@matimcfetridge Go for the Sportline kit for the Eibach's mate, the Pro Kit (what I've got on my A3) is essentially the same ride height as S-line springs anyway. The spacers I went for were H&R, they seem to be the most recommended for Audis.
@@MrMikkiFunk i have the s-line (well black edition) springs on my a3 and i would still say its a little too high. what would you recommend for me if anything?
@@joeburch7959 If you've got an S-line then you can get the Eibach Sportline springs Mati has used here. I believe they only work on S-line springs/ shocks as non S-line shocks won't compress enough for the car to drop to the designed ride height of the springs.
😂😂 you got a big job on? Thought it made most sense to put money earnt straight back into the channel, tools like those save time and definitely make the jobs quicker and easier to film 🤙🏼
@@matimcfetridge I would have gone for a milwaukee m12 stubby. Smaller then the makita you have but probs twice or 3times as powerful. Only that its a wrench not a driver.
Basically in a diesel with low power air filters and cone filters are a waste of money, spend it on something else like a rolling remap, brakes, HD antiroll bar links.......
