Hi Guys, I dont suppose any of you could point me in the correct direction to a step by step guide for the timing belt replacement for the above engine please. Ive looked all over and cant seem to find anything.

The Pd 130 engine shares injectors with the Pd150 engine so the injectors ( if in good working order ) will be good to flow enough fuel to get you to 210-220hp. The difference between the 130 and 150 is turbo, camshaft, intercooler and software i believe. THe 130 runs a side mount cooler just...

It also depends greatly on the brand and model of car you are talking about as well to be honest, Something youve not mentioned yet? and if it is a petrol or diesel car|B

Thanks obi, I forgot to mention about the cheap ebay tat :rofl:

Hi buddy and welcome to the forum. Im guessing your engine is the BKD engine code 140hp? There are a lot of things you can do to get extra grunt out of this engine and plenty of places on the net, Google is your best friend|B As with everything in the tuning world it depends on budget as you...

Thanks for that Lunchmoney. Not as bad is i first thought it would be. Now just need to make the decision between auto or manual i guess.V(

Hi Guys. 9-3 2.0T B207R, 210hp i think it is, What sort of mpg can i expect to see from it? Any feedback would be great as im about to pull the trigger on one of two im viewing. One is an auto and the other manual, both are 57 (2008) Thanks in advance|B

Crankshaft snapped?! Holy s**t Not very often you hear of that. :(

If you have tried to restart and it sounds like the engine is turning over a lot quicker than normal i would suggest that the cambelt has failed or a tensioner has failed causing the belt to fail. Fast turning over of engine is a sure sign of no cylinder compression.

Concrete evidence that Lexus cars sales are sinking?-/

My Octy VRs back in the day. 2.0 184ps stock. Went really well with loads of mid range grunt.

Its "shocking" to think that all those years ago playing with my TCR track and Scalextrics we could all be driving them. Sorry for the very bad play on words :) On a serious note tho, Ive been in a Telsa Model S just the poverty spec 75Kw version of it but still a hefty £55k so im told and to...

The problem there is that Govt are fools:woot:

I honestly cant see electric car technology being viable by 2040. Even just simple issues of vehicle range, if you were travelling the length of the country in an electric car it would be a 2 day trip as you would need to stop for 8 or so hours to charge up! What about couriers and Haulage...

I never felt i needed to go to the dizzy heights of even 1kw of power back in the day. I recently done a quick install on my friends 2014 Leon. We used an old school Denon DCA-800 6 channel amp, Fitted Focal components in the front and focal coaxials in the rear with a 10" Hertz Sub in a...
