Fix the oil leak and get the management tuned properly by someone who knows what they are doing.

Hoping it is a gasket or seal leaking.kylebassani wrote:Can you see where the oil leak is coming from?
Agree with others, get it properly tuned. Confirm your injector wiring and trigger pulse setup to injectors from ecu as it could be triggering all 4 injectors on each trigger event.

Re: Eratic 16v
Buy the dissy seal from VW dealer as they don't last from anywhere else.

Get the oil leaks sorted and then find someone that can tune the gotech system for you.freakincoolhatch wrote:thanks people oil leak is from the distributor and the cam seal ,,have taken the car to 3 different tuners not winning all they want is money everytime to put it on the dyno with no interest in getting the car sorted ,so yeah not happy ,i have double checked it is wired for sequential and is working correct
RBTS would be able to sort this for you.
