    "And if you do talk rubbish you might start to get your name publicised" - love it. I've got a Golf 1.9 tdi and fitted a mahogany turbo I made with my Dremel, downloaded a tune from Aldi and flashed it to the ECU through my old Nokia. I can regularly pull 2.0 sec 0-60 times with 500mm section Pirelli p-zeros on the front and two spacesavers on the back. I've towed a trailer with 30 tonnes of immigrants through the channel tunnel loads of times and my oil temp never goes above 30 Kelvin. It'll do around 240 mph on decent stuff from Tescos pumps. Let me know if you want any help.

    I'm interested in what difference the DPF delete makes as it is very restrictive in the Amarok. The first time it re-gened the heat and smell of burning was so bad that I thought something was wrong but I'm used to it now. Getting the soot level down below 5g seems almost impossible and mine is usually around 20g. I've tried adding chemical (JLM) but I'm not sure that it makes much difference.
    Mine usually runs oil temperature at 115 - 120 but crossing the Alps last summer with ambient temp up to 40, not towing, it was running at 135. I had understood from the Australian videos that gearbox temp was more of a problem than engine oil but it sounds as if that might be wrong. Are you measuring gearbox temp with VCDS because I'd like to try that?
    Finally, have you disabled the stop/start system and how, because, in the short term, that is my main problem with the truck?

    • @DarksideDevelopments
