Neat, glad you got it sorted. Not sure what handle they've given you if it drives the CL system potty - worth getting a refund though as I'm betting it was far from cheap! No go drink beer and enjoy your weekend safe in the knowledge that's one less thing to worry about :lol:
-
When you replaced the handles, did you take the door card off and plug the wire in that connects the handle into the CL loop? Also, when you've got the door card off - check that the vacuum hose is connected to the actuator. The hose was orange in mine, and pretty easy to locate. The actuator is on the right hand side of the door as you look at it from the interior up against the edge where the mech is. It's a bit fiddly getting the hose into the actuator - but you'll know when it's in there. Check both sides as you've had both handles replace. Note that the passat handles don't have the central locking wire... HTH :D

Mr Beefy? Not on your life sunshine. Although, it may cost you that if you do decide to chow down on a burger from that van. :lol: -

PMSL :lol: Doesn't the Chysler Crossfire have one as well btw?

Stealth do a mod that gives around 150bhp from a 1.8 16v, involves fiddling with the WUR (warm up regulator) IIRC and some other things. Can't remember off the top of my head, brain fried from work.... Do a search, lots of information about this topic. :)

Why not advertise it on Vortex? There maybe someone over there willing to ship a car to the US? Don't kill another one!!
-
PMSL :lol: Just put his name on the V5, it's gonna happen eventually! Looking good, those seats really finish off the interior nicely. They Kett's old BBS's too? 8)

Looks like I'll be getting one of those tonight or tomorrow, along with a few cans of gunk and a soft, squishy chocolate bar from the front desk. Should get me a tenner voucher :lol:
-
Blimey, that is reasonable. Have been after one of these for a while to start my tool collection off with. Good spot. Question - does it fit in the back of a rado? :D
-
Would oil burning off give this affect? If a head needed a rebuild, would it cause this? Mine does it from time to time, and I know for a fact mine needs rebuilding as the seals/guides are foo-bar'd. Just a thought.. :)

I've jut sourced a VR coweling and lever from corovin cheers Supercharged, but the empty space is what prompted the question. It's going to look all weird without the adjustable column - so I think It'd be rude to stick late stalks and late coweling on without the relevant extras :D
-
Neat, thanks :D
-
Is it possible? Would it just be a case of removing the static one, and installing the adjustable one with the relevant coweling etc..? ta :)
-
Ah Lucy Pinder... /daydream :roll:
-
Another totally long shot - Black VR with after market bumpers, dunno what ones. In Scheveningen in The Hague. I tell you, 3 days - 4 rados and 2 roccos. 3 weeks in the US, not one of either. :roll:
-
Thanks to corozin for my stalks and coweling. Delivered when promised, kept well informed - and a down right nice bloke too :)
-
...I rest my case... PMSL :lol:

Things that have gone wrong and then fixed themselves.......

Yeah yeah, he's a tinkerer! Like me, not happy unless something is in pieces! Glad to hear he's working out the niggles with scarlett though, takes time but well worth in the end. No probs, understand you had to witness the group grilling at work. Hung around for a bit, but needed to get home and pack. Hope Dave hasn't been preaching about it too much, it's nowhere near finished! You're more than welcome to take a looksee at the car, just ignore the bonnet and the rims. Bonnet soon to be resprayed and rims replaced, but you'll get an idea of the ride height. :D -

LOL it's Dave making things break, so he's got an excuse to work on your car!! :lol: -
Can't take the credit on that one I'm afraid mate, someone had it in their sig and it's stuck in my mind ever since! Very true though!!

Just realised the profanity in my other post. Meant to say sit right :lol:

Before the gauge hits 70+, I drive like Miss Daisy is in the back. After that, Daisy could be screaming blue bloody murder for all I care mwahahah Normally let it get properly warmed up before doing the 4K and away valver thing though :roll:

Fuse, relay... ah they're both behind the same panel. Close enough :D

Knackered relay? Welcome to the forum btw :)
