According to the leaflet I have there available in either 4 or 5 stud. Have you looked here http://www.sherbrook.co.uk might be some info there. Nice wheel by the way :wink:
-
That'll be the two thats split on mine right pain to get off, Is there not a tool you can get to remove them ? £15 was that for new or second hand? Dont fancy paying 50+ for a new set from ecp.
-
New plugs in and ran the same at first, took it for a run and seemed to just about clear it still missing a little, But a couple of the leads are broken so it may be tracking out. Anouther one for the long list then... Who was it that said vw's were reliable ?
-
I gave inters a miss this year as it just didnt deserve the 6 hour or so drive last year.. Will definately try and go to e38 this year tho.

Saturday afternoon White standard looking M- plate vr6 on jesmond bypass newcastle going towards town. anyone ?
-
:cry: new car time me thinks ! after getting up at 7 this morning hoping the problem might have vanised (no such luck), Checked all the wires around the area and all seem fine :scratch: now have to remove the leads and go to halfrauds for some new plugs and try that. How often should you change plugs ?
-
I can now select all the gears and the clutch feels good, But I still have the mis-fire problem. I cant see any wires that have been moved in anyway, and leads seem fine. Will remove plugs tomorrow and investegate further... thanks for the help Skimask. What wires if any would cause it to run like that?
-
I've just fitted a new slave cylinder to my rado but have a couple of problems, I cant select any of the top gears 1st, 3rd, 5th or reverse ??? Ive bled it using a easy bleed kit.. Also the first time I started it it was fine, But now its running like a sac of poo, Like its mis-firing, wont tick over and the odd back fire ??? :mad: Can fitting the slave cylinder have caused it to run like this ? And whats up with the gears ? Thanks for any info, The raddo is really testing me lately with all its problems, Starter, alternater, rad, rack, etc,etc..
-
Simble to do yourself : Disconnect battery, Disconnect wires from starter one a plug other held on by nut (13mm I think), Remove the two bolts (agin 13mm I think)holding the starter on may be easier from under the car with an extension bar, once bolts are removed starter should come free. still quite fresh in my memory... :)

Cutting out plate recess and meshing or flushing ?

Bally/gibber : Yeah there standard lights with (cheap) rings in, Now disconnected as they started going off one by one , May put some decent ones in one day but was never too sure on the look?? -
I have the same problem with my clutch at the moment, After a longish drive the pedal goes to the floor, Iam hoping its the slave cylinder as the master seems to have been replaced at some time. Got a price for the slave: stealers £80.06 ,Ecp £35.00 :shock: I bled the slave and it lasted a day... How do I bleed the master cylinder ??

Heres mine; Plate now in the center and eyebrow fitted. sorry about pic size. -
My vr had a 70 amp one just replaced it :scratch:
-
I was a little shocked to find out mine needs a brake pipe... or 2....3, :( plus a couple of other little things.
-
Took it to a local place and they said the diode was knackered and would cost the same as a recon one from them £90.. I think a recon one from ecp might be better quality.
-
Just a quick question, My alterator needs replacing and ecp only list a bosch 120 amp for the raddo vr at £145 :shock:, The one I have is only a 70 amp. But they list 3 or 4 for the golf vr 70, 90, and 120, Surely the golf and rado alts are the same ??? If they are I could just buy a 70 amp and it should be fine yeah? Anyone ever had any bother with alts from ecp ? thanks for any help.

I have 10mm spacers on the rear with standard bolts, seems fine..
