Don't use dealers for coatings, take it to a proper detailing place. Ceramic coating has become a bit of a buzzword and from what I've seen they either smash out a quick polish and throw a spray coating on or they use duraseal which IMO is total garbage. A detailer will advise you on the appropriate quartz coating for your needs. In future if you wanted a coating go see your local detailer and get a quote. Ceramic helps with UV protection but it's main benefit is to stop dirt and grime from sticking to the paint and damaging it, also can reduce the amount of swirls and light scratches and of course just makes the car extra shiny.

I run this one https://shop.nstparts.com/products/aem-high-flow-low-current-water-methanol-solenoid?variant=41514507665547&currency=NZD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwmaO4BhAhEiwA5p4YL_d3r91Go1hpnSKtNPP256HULDzHjAgwLyuhwKxY8vJ_dwjXPoOPwhoCFrMQAvD_BwE

Have recently installed watermeth into my Golf R and it's made a fair difference, we were messing around and the amount of extra timing we could pump in was mental. For the sake of all the effort of putting stuff together I'd just buy an AEM or snow performance kit. The one I went with was AEM V3, installation was pretty easy and it just has a nice basic foolproof controller that starts injecting once it reaches a certain amount of boost. I am finding it a right pain in the bum trying to source the stuff at the moment though as STA is out of stock and there doesn't appear to be anyone else selling it. The only other option I've found is buying a 200L drum of pure meth and having a life time supply.

Turn key to on position so pump primes up with in line fuel pressure gauge and see if pressure drops quickly or holds for a while? If pressure drops quickly then check fuel injectors. Could also see if any of the plugs are more fouled than others I suppose but this might only show up if an injector really is leaking bad.

Maybe. Last time I went to burgerfuel it cost me damn near 30 bux so might try the mexican place next door.

Shakotoms bike is slightly hidden sorry!

3 vehicles, none of them matching. 2 cars 1 bike 2 euros 1 japanese 2 oldschool one new school

Hopefully see you lot tonight.

Yeah why not

I'm down for next Wednesday if ya'll wanna catch up for a borger

Wouldn't mind attending occasional burger eats.

Can you hear the injectors clicking? Also pull plugs after a good crank and see if they're dry or wet. It may be a newschool engine but the basics still apply, fuel/air/compression/spark.

We've been telling people to dump it, yeah. Too much of a coincidence to have so many blown engines all running the same oil. Maybe if it's some really old stuff you've had lying around it'll be good (we used to recommend it to customers), but anything that's been purchased in the last 18 months I'd say ditch it.

There's only one thing left to do... Put a rota innit oi!

We used to recommend it back in the day. Now it blows engines up. Dunno what they changed but it's causing us (and most other dealerships) a lot of problems at the moment.
