  • We set out to do as many mods as possible in just one day on this budget VW UP! In homage to our original episode on our Daihatsu Cuore back in 2008, these mods will be cheap and quick, unlike the car which is cheap (and slow)
    But this is just the beginning - this car is set to be one of the best projects of the year with many shipments due from overseas...

    Some quick tips from a guy who services and works on these almost daily.
    Pull out the entire airbox before removing any screws, just pull the airbox up until loose and push it to the left to get the little plastic piece on the pipe out of the rubber grommet on the valve cover. When you have to remove the ignition coils, run it really nice and warm, it'll make it MUCH easier to pull them out, also get some dielectric grease INSIDE the ignition coil boot. If they're still stuck or if you for whatever reason can't go out and drive it till it's warm, pull the top of the ignition coil off the boot and put an airgun in the the hole of the rubber boot and blow, they should come right out and the coils can just be put back together.

      I live in Pernambuco, Brazil. It's rare to find an Up because it came Out of Line and when i had a Up TSI, it was completaly original and it was a mini Bugatti. We already found an "Level 2 Engine" Up, with 170hp it already was a rocket. So he just accelerated because of my Up, And also i accelerated too, why not? To tell those Brazillian Up's rocket, first i say that my Up was behind that Up Level 2 while hes accelerating. But i didn't knew it was accelerating too much, so he accelerate all max 100%, All i have to say is: That will start flying one day because of it's torque.

      Its one of the few sensible EVs out there.
      It is affordable, looks like a normal car and the package makes sense.
      But the range is simply shit and they governed it to 130kph.
      Probably tp not take the glory from their dogshit "ID" models away which are so expensive you might aswell just finance an A Class.

    I know this can be a fairly straightforward, nothing too exciting episode but Moog's short bit about replacing the interior air filter got me thinking - hey, I've ever even seen the filter in the car I've owned for nearly 10 years. And I don't recall seeing it being replaced in a service. I might quickly google a video about how to access mine to see what condition it's in (while I love this channel I haven't ever modified or really serviced my own car... shame on me, I know!). So I google how to do it, straightforward enough OK let's go and UH OH there is NO filter! How long have I had no filter!? Forever!?

    Those coils are the same design as the EA888.3 (2.0 TSI) and EA855 EVO (2.5 TFSI). Using mechanical leverage can tear the boot as the rubber grips on to the plug porcelain. Get the engine warm and stick a long nose air duster down and blast. The pressure sneaks up the plug and breaks the grip and the coil just slips out.

    Misha Charoudin has (or had) a well-modified Up on the Nurburgring, but he's in Germany so it's a little easier to get parts for it. The Up is a great car; you won't set any speed records, but it's very chuckable, and as Marty said, a surprising amount of interior space for a modern compact - 4 adults over 6' will fit quite comfortably.

    I’ve driven a few Up!s as VW dealer loan cars while my Golfs were being serviced. Happy little things with sweet overall manners and particularly good steering feel/feedback. The rev-happy 3cyl and a slick clutch/gearshift combo provides much more fun than the spec suggests. A small amount of lift-off oversteer as per Golf Mk1 & Mk2 is the icing on a diet-friendly cake 🙂 Name suggestion: sorry, but it has to be BallsUp 😁

The one hint I have to give you is if you park it for any length of time do not leave the hand brake on. They quite quickly lock onto the drum and with ours I had to spend an uncomforatble hour or so spraying the drum full of any solvent available and pounding it to break the hand brake loose. We cant fault it otherwise. Enjoy it, I know you will and I love what you have done with it so far.

With basic mods (downpipe, full exhaust, and intake) they go up to 150hp pretty easy. And on a 950kg car it makes it a pretty fun hothatch. I´ve seen the giving a hard time to stock civic si´s.

I am a little on the fence about the lowering springs though given the road conditions here but aching to do it. I hear Bilstein OE replacement kit does wonders. An exhaust system with headers could add some oomph but these have integrated exhaust manifolds. Anyway, I'm really stoked to see what more you can do with this platform. Gives me hope. 😀 Cheers!

    Sadly, you guys don't know what you're missing out on with the Up! GTi... It's one hell of am underrated micro car... Car mags have compared the feeling you get hooning it around to the original first gen Golf GTi (has similar power to weight ratio too)...
    And one of the other things about cars like these is the fact that you can rag them about without really blowing speed limits down country lanes/fast roads - or in other words, its like thrashing a 125cc motorbike compared to a 600/1000cc bike, you can wring the neck of a 125cc bike and still have a right old laugh, but with a 600cc/1000cc bike, it can get very unfunny very quickly... 👍👍👍 🤣 😎🇬🇧

    16:47 Method I use is to stick the plug into the tool but give it a left turn until you feel (and hear) it jump on the end of the thread, then start going right to tighten

      Yeh be careful doing that you can cross thread them even more easily that way (if you are at any kind of angle, the thread start is the easiest place to allow the thread to cut its own path over top). The rubber hose would spin if the torque got too much meaning you can’t apply enough torque to cross the threads

    Great content, if you guys are going to be doing the coilover conversion, a very easy way to replace suspension is to unto the 3 nuts on the ball joint, remove track rod end from hub, remove drive shaft, remove calliper, and droplink, get the whole thing out on the work bench, it will take less time to do so, and much easier to fit the new shock in :) (special tool to split the collar available in most stores, 10mm splitter tool) HOPE IT HELPS :D

    A nippy EV this size and for a good price would be amazing.

    Castrol had a contract of 30 years, from the 80s to 2018. It is now terminated and thats the reason why new cars from 2018 has no castrol logo on the oilcaps. SHELL ULTRA is the new oil supplier for all german cars and even porsche and all.
