Cant wait now been doing the rear brakes this evening ready for the big trip :lol: just gotta whack the front ones on tomorrow evening now ! i like doing brakes i do :grin: Really looking forward to it and all the walkie talkie fun :lol: -
Is this the 13mm hex head bolt for holding the caliper to the carrier? Will check all ours when i get the chance but I always fit new ones which vw supply with either pads or the rubber slide pin seals/rubbers.
-
Agreed, superb job with the wheels :notworthy:
-
Nice little job :clap:
-
Maybe everyone thinks you're a nutter because your car is too low :cuckoo: Now i'm getting on a bit these days so seeing this makes me go erm... why? but dont take it to heart i'm just an old fart :lol: nice looking motor though!
-
Sooooo looking forward to fitting them :ignore: :lol:
-
:clap: Nice one Mark, a sigh of relief then!
-
Bit low aint it? surely it'll catch speed bumps and stuff being like that! :brickwall: :cuckoo: :lol:
-
Can anyone please explain to a complete numpty how to change thedate & time? looked at the guide Jon vr6 posted up and dont understand it much, :shrug: I'm a bit naff at computer stuff as you probably guessed :lol: Thanks

Thats the same number as the ones we have, although it works out slightly cheaper from the dealers without having to pay the postage. :wink: we always get a good discount too when we mention the Corrado Club so well worth the £10 joining fee. :grin:
-
No contest in my oppinion, and speaking from a buffing point of view I hate the fact that the solitude has a stupid clover leaf shaped hub section (the bit that faces the disc) that collects water when you wash it. I know it's sad but it bugs me :lol: so glad i dont have them and Jude does :lol:
-
I think they were the standard VR style item but also coloured in the same brick red leather, but dont quote me on that. :grin:
-
Got one of the porter ones for sale if you are interested mate, £10 Posted. only selling as i now have A bentley one which Jude bought me for xmas. Not as extensive as the bently but a fraction of the cost.
-
Ooh that honister is a bitch mate, remember doing that on the montain bike one year. a speedy recovery then matey! hang in there.
-
Didn't even notice that on first view so had to go back and look :lol:
-
Thats a bugger mate hope you are ok, how are you gonna cope with work then? you got insurance for being off sick? Oh and i'll ask, What happened then? :eek:
-
Yes for me I think colours like red, yellow, silver, white always look better with them. but each to their own chap and they are easy to stick back on anyway.
-
Nice job David, love the avatar by the way :)
-
Yeah give em both a slap round the ear, then accept their offer of either car with a full tank of fuel :lol: Hope you haven't tempted fate though buddy saying it's never broke down is not something I suggest myself lightly :ignore:
-
Yes looking good James and hope it passes without issues :wink:
-
Yeah good luck, my daily passed today too and i was sure it'd fail so happy as larry whoever he is :lol:
-
Was expecting a catastrophe too so iguess fearing the worst has helped :lol:
-
Good news today as the 8v passed without issues today :clap: The tester did say theres a small amount of play in the rear bearings but nothing major! Was thinking about doing a brake overhaull anyway soon with new discs and pads all round and some new rear bearings and splash guards to tidy it up a bit :wink: Also bought some new dampers for the VR today :clap:
-
Not 100% but i think so mate yes :?
