  1. Welcome to the forum Martin. Very nice looking valver! 8)
  2. I know blackhorse do them, dont know what its like, i got it free when i got a loan out once and never had to use the service (thankfully). Check them out see what they can offer.
  3. I'd personally hold out for a little longer (i know its hard not to :lol:) but you'd get another years no claims under your belt and it'll go towards a better premium for a G or a VR.
  4. Couldnt really tell. I bet the other driver was not only stunned but pished off too!
  5. :lol: i like i like! You couldnt stage a picture like that. Did it make it into the calender?
  6. Cheers kevHaywire, as mentioned in my first post it is going to be hooked up to the VAG-COM sometime next week. But wondering what it could be before i get chance to hook it up. So is it possible for the leads to short? What leads are recommended?
  7. Ok ive spoken to the bloke that sold me the VR, he asked if ive checked the HT leads as they can "sometimes short out". Is this possible?
  8. DRIBBLE!!!! LOVE the rims. 8) Nice looking motor
  9. Oh and btw its a 1993 not a 1992, incase it makes any difference.
  10. £30 is more expensive then buying them from the site though.
  11. Halfords sell NGKs? didnt think they did.
  12. and which is cheaper? On that link they were £3 odd per plug. Worked out at £26 inc delivery. Oh and which HT leads are recommended. There is champion ones on at the moment, Ive been advised that theyre shoite.
  13. Cheers ill get hold of one to change the plugs.
  14. Im not going to go do it, but why does a tool have to be used? P.S found the thread regarding the tool, cheers VR6Storm
  15. Where can i get these NGK Platinums from, can i use bosch plugs?
  16. Cheers bud! ill give it a go and post back when i get it done. Not for another week unfortunately? Im just hoping its nothing too serious.
  17. Cheers for the response vr6storm. Yeah sorry its a 1992 VR. So fitting new plugs could fix the problem? Where can i get NGK plugs, German and Swedish? and how much?
  18. Hi guys, Need some advice. Ive just got a VR6 and found out its misfiring. Its "ticky" and theres no power when i put my foot down, even with foot to the floor (in 3rd). When revved you can hear it back firing. Its also idling very lumpy and at aroung 500rpm maybe a tad less. It looks as though the coil pack has been replaced and the HT leads replaced, Champions, are these shoite leads? Took it to a trustworthy garage and booked it in to be hooked up to the computer. Whats the next step IF this doesnt show anything? Sorry if this is a lame question, first time ive owned or driven a VR. Cheers all!
  19. no cos of his comment :lol: Call it half a chufties! He should have stopped talking after he said "Ive always wanted one of these".
  20. :lol: have to agree with scarlett, it got me too! And Helen achieved exactly what she stated on the tin! Welcome to the forum and er..... good luck! :lol::lol::lol:

    Good theory! Or why not just attach an extractor fan to the air intake, probably more effective.

    nightmare

    You spoken to your insurance about it easypops, or have you got a price from a garage to repair it? I know YOU shouldnt have to pay for it, but i doubt you'll find who's done it.
  23. :lol: any excuse to stay in the drivers seat. He'll be wanting to drive it next.
