I have read that a lot of people on here have carbonios, i ordered mine the otherday, when should i get it ?

P.S im not inpatient honest [A]

Where did you order it from? Awesome GTI store or Carbonio themselves? I would expect about a week if ordered from Carbonio.

 

[dizzee_rich]

I ordered it from Awsome dude. I want it nowwwwwwwww [:'(][:'(][:'(][;

Was only ?200+ for a piece of pipe [H]

There supposed to be a right *@%# [][][] @#$%%%* to fit thou , is this true ?

 

[MikeTDI]

take the battery out and its a piece of pee mate.

 

[MkIV Turbo]

Yeah as Mike says take the battery out and its much easier!

 

[dizzee_rich]

Mike have u fitted one before? i have heard of battery and headlamp issues?

Also is it best to take off the front bumoper and jack it up ? [:S] cant see why thou

 

[MikeTDI]

yeah ive fitted mine before, took it off many a time to clean and put back on. No problems at all. Not heard of a headlight issue before? Battery out thats all. I find it a good idea to take battery out, fit the carbon pipe without the filter on, take front bumper off, then fit the filter while the front bumper is off near the arch liner. then you have lots of room to play with while fitting. Dont need to have the car jacked up. Fitting time appx 45 mins. But take your time doing it 1st time.

 

[dizzee_rich]

Cheers mike , many thanx

 

[dizzee_rich]

It still iant come , i no there is prob a huge demand of them n stuff but im not very pateint [] lol

Mike, do u need to remove the bumper if u have to clean the
filter? or should i say, what's involved in
getting to the filter if u need to service it?

the easiest and best way is to remove the bumper yes, because once its off the filter is right there for you to take off and clean.
