well done mate great read!

yeah fan was still working id messed up the electrics under fuse box so messy up there got it sorted now thanks

hi, today i realised that my fan has stopped working for some odd reason?? where exactly is the sensor switch located did you replace yours? and did it do the trick? thanks

I recently did the moonroof conversion and soon afterwards the brake light fuse blew. Everytime i replaced it would blow out in a matter of seconds!! but then again i'm sure this happened to me once before i did the moonroof conversion. Where should i start looking for faults????

hi guys my 1.8 16v also has a leak in the same place as chucks (left corner) well oil could be this be the root of he high idling problem :?: i'm having after about 110 degrees mfa engine temp it starts idling at about 1500rpm??? thanks

hey man, yeah i got that sorted. I initially got the top mount replaced, after this the clanking got much much worser, so i took it back to the mechanics and realised that they hadn't put the shock back properly, the spring was hitting the inside of the wing!!! can you believe that... so i got them to take everything apart and put it all back together under my supervision... ha ha ha!! and guess this time they did it perfectly and no clanking... :D

hi everyone dunno if you read my recent post with the steaming engine, im going tommorow to pick it up from east putney, is there anyone living in and around that area that are free 2moro??? if anyone has a diagram of the engine vacuum hosing system, possibly from bentley manual cd or the book, could you please post this for me on the website, this will help me work out which vacuum hosing is leaking, and hopefully instruct the mechanic to replace it... Thanks

hi guys i took the car out for a long drive today, driving back from kingston and all of a sudden at a traffic light the endine starts to steam hardcore!!! this freaked me out big time, so i parked up and looked under the engine, water leaking like crazy. Luckily there was a garage about 50 yards away, was closed but security was there to help... he ckecked it out briefly topped up the coolant water cos it was empty (funny cos i topped it up about 2 weeks ago) and as we were doing this we could see water coming out where a peice of vacuum hosing attaches itself to the front of the engine somewhere!!!..left car there will go back tuesday to sort it out with mechanic...hope i dont have to replace the whole unit, could this happen due to a lack of coolant???? any advice much appreciated.. Thanks

dunno exactly but would love that power gain, know of any weblinks for 16vg60???

Hi guys im thinking of doing the above, what do i need to buy???? how much power gain can i expect and how much will it cost?? can i do the fitting myself??? thanks

sorry for being so dumb, but redlining whats that all about??? :?:

Thanks andi, thats great i just checked out their website, they look good, i'm going to upminister tommorow so i think ill check them out too. Cheers! :D

easy boss, im in barking, east london, but going down to feltham aint that much of a mission for me so i might try them, did you get camber correction from there???

anyone know of any mechanics in and around london that can do camber correction for me and dont charge too much??? how much would it cost to correct front passenger side wheel???? thanks

i finally decided to go retro and went to my local vw breakers and managed to get myself a vw passat glass sunroof, and fitted that instead!! ;D it tilts and slides open fine but when i close it from fully retracted it closes about halfway and then slows down and stops it then half to push and press the button to close it fully any ideas???? Will put pics up soon
