Whats the best way of removing internal window stickers ?
shawshankkid replied to VWVW's topic in Interior
Lighter fluid on a cloth.... perfect for the job. -
depends on the deepness of the scratch....machine polish with menzerna and steady as you go until removed...deeper ones can still be removed but you may see a slight bow in the acrylic.
-
I could if you were a bit closer to me...somerset is too far for me to help sorry. Ps...Always best to put your location in your profile so it shows next to your name and avatar. Cheers, Chris.

Corrado Lambda Sensors - Bosch Part Numbers
shawshankkid replied to ProdigalSon's topic in Engine Bay
As i've said before, yes it's dearer to buy lamda probes from the dealers but if you have a problem with it it guarenteed for two years. i'd rather have that personaly. -

I've decided to take the personal reg plate off (as it wasn't personal to me) and go back to the original registration of the car. i think people will appreciate the condition relating to the year a little more ( i think :) ) i like it better :grin: ...i'm really pleased with the G60 now and think it's pretty much immaculate...it only took me nearly 5 years ! :clap: This car will never leave my ownership now. -
Noisekiller under bonnet foam/sound suppressant.
shawshankkid replied to shawshankkid's topic in Suppliers Forum
Are you trying some of the foam david ? i must admit i would rather have it black but....nearly three years on and the noisekiller still looks brand new on mine :D -
If you can't get any of the vw dealer lube (looks maybe yes/maybe no) white grease will be perfect.... i fixed my sunroof 6 months ago and it operates really smooth with the white grease.

Buy a G60 and feel the love and inspiration...dead easy :luvlove: :) mine NEVER feels slow !
-
I weight all my slot cars....a bit of lead here and there keeps them on the track nicely in the quick corners :grin:
-

G60 Owners. What tyre pressures work for you ?
shawshankkid replied to shawshankkid's topic in Drivetrain
36 Back 38 Front Works for me..... :thumbleft: -
Hi All, Standard G60 Tyre pressure is... 36Back/41Front... I personally think after 5 years of driving it thats a bit high, especially on the fronts. What do you run with / find good for handling / tyre wear etc-etc ? I know this topic has been covered a few times but not with alot of opinions, if you own a G60 please please add your input to the thread. Vbr, Chris.
-
Go round a left hand corner fairly quick, if it knocks it's def the dampner/weight...I had it on my G60 a few years ago.
