They certainly took their time to come out with an aluminium version of this pump didn't they.....these engines are 12-13yrs old now. It looks good - hopefully it will be more reliable than the plastic crap.Leave a comment:

G'day and welcome Occyscout. Those 2.0TDI's are great engines if looked after and will run forever. A great thing about having 2x cars with the same engine/driveline is that you can swap certain parts from one car to the other to troubleshoot certain issues.
Not sure what parts you are...Leave a comment:

Finally my wheels arrived after ordering them in October!! The original rims were all scuffed by the previous owner which is somewhat odd itself as the car has the self parking feature........assume they didnt use it or were just bad at navigating around carparks etc as the car spent most of its life...Last edited by Lucas_R; 16-02-2026, 10:55 AM.Leave a comment:

It certainly is a big difference in size. I guess its simply an easy way for Audi to save a few $$ in parts, simplyify production as its the same intercooler for all petrol engines regardless of spec - and of course 99% of buyers wouldn't notice, understand or care.

Good luck with the sale and I hope it goes to someone who will appreciate it and continue to look after it. The Cab's are definitely an underappreciated little vehicle.

Modern engines really need to be vacuum filled when doing a coolant change, and while doing it, you need to have the ignition on with the heater set to max temp and a slow/medium fan speed to open the heater core so that it fills with coolant.
Highly likely that you have a pocket of air...Leave a comment:

Someone like TTY Euro in Mordialloc would be worth speaking to. They are an independent VW/Audi specialist.Leave a comment:

Still waiting on some mods to arrive, but my upgraded intercooler finally arrived last week. The factory intercooler on the B9 SQ5 is small, cheaply made (average quality core with plastic end tanks) and well known for being inadequate for cooling the inlet charge on the EA839 3.0T V6 engine.

Far out you probably only were getting about 1/2 throttle before, hopefully the engine feels a bit more lively now.
As for the power band being so high, im sure its been a decade or so since this thing was tuned. No doubt it's well overdue for a retune with modern software - im sure even...Last edited by Lucas_R; 21-01-2026, 02:01 PM.Leave a comment:
