[QUOTE="Didge3, post: 165957, member: 3216"] Sorry for the absence, I very recently became an Uncle so I've been a bit distracted. The Twingo has been going along fine, nearly at 104,000miles now. I think mine is one of the Twingos with cold start issues that I've read about here and there, sometimes when its sub 3C it'll turn over for about 10seconds or so before starting but it'll always start so I'm not bothered as yet. I read somewhere on here about removing the recirc pipe from the dump valve to get a bit more noise from it. I've always been a bit annoyed that I have a turbo car and nobody can tell so I've removed the pipe and plugged it up (with a plastic bottle top but its clamped on and not going anywhere so, whatever...) I didn't realise just how loud this would make things though. I went for a little drive after removing the pipe and laughed my arse off when I pulled out onto the street and dipped the clutch at about 3000rpm, the noise is hilarious! Everyone must think I'm some 17 year old boy racer :D [/QUOTE]
