Hello all
Thanks for having me on board the forum.
About me: Two Golf GT TDI 110s lived here until recently, one has just gone, to be replaced in a couple of weeks by a new GT TDI 140. We owned the 110s from new, so I have a lot of history with this model. The cars were a 2000 model and a 2001 model (the one that's still with us). Luckily, both cars have proved to be almost completely waterproof (waterproof is always good in Scotland).
My main leisure interest is searching for solutions for limp mode! I rarely contribute to forums, usually finding that I know less than those already on there, but I read lots, and appreciate the time given by contributors. Having little experience of posting, I'm likely to make mistakes (best to get that in now, I thought).
I do all my own maintenance on the cars (though I hope the imminent Mk VI will give me some peace for a bit). I'm mostly successful, though rarely fast (it works for me).
I was prompted to join because of reading some of the FAQs on limp mode, which I'm quietly pursuing again, calmly and without panic. I still have lots to read, but maybe once I've done that, I'll see if I can get some help here. I've asked my neighbours opposite for advice on limp mode, but they're no use at all. Is that normal for sheep to know so little about mechanical stuff?

In general though, as to how we speak in Scotland, our leaders use the same orifice as those in most other countries. Does this help at all?
