  • This was a close call... I took my MK7 Golf R to ‪@RegalAutosport‬ for a pre-track season overhaul & service. However, whilst it was there, they discovered something that could've resulted in something pretty catastrophic...

    I'm guessing they gave you a discount or free work as its stupidly expensive there for simple work. Quoted me just under £200 for a Haldex oil change years ago on a Golf R. Service parts cost £27 so an arm and a leg for their 30 mins labour.

    Have you not got a catch can? You shouldnt have that problem if you have one, if it is a racingline one that is. Other makes do tend to be whack

    So what kind of Breather does the GTI Clubsport or TCR that he mentioned have? Is it an OEM part and if so? What is the part number if anyone knows? Love this R its freaking sweet!!👍

    Was this issue due to the bartek catchcan system or due to not having it installed prior? I'm confused why it happened? Didnt detail what the fix or proper cause was.

      Thats where id put my money. Bartek parts are crap, lots of them have failed on guys I know. Personally I only use racingline and 034 parts

      @@lastnamefirstname520 Alex mentioned is being due to the breather. Which is part of the PCV system. Racingline include a replacement breather as part of the system. Bartek dont. ECS however provide an upgraded breather hose. I just dont get what difference it would make when the Bartek has a bigger internal baffle vs Racingline. Not to mention Racingline had issues with seals leaking. Bartek just had welding issues on the baffle. Which has since been resolved. I'd be amazed if this is happening due to the Bartek plate. I know it was fitted about 3 months ago but Luke mentioned he had the breather fall off the plate at one point during a track day. Maybe the lack of vaccum during that track day caused the issue? I dont know. No clarification was given. I have the Bartek Catchcan on my car so that's why im curious. Not to mention i havent had this issue on my car, so its either just Luke's car having the issue, or due to the vaccum hose falling off.
