  1. where from in the usa and how much?
  2. c&r enterprises have some new ones in stock , dont know a price yet tho
  3. yep i got it.... you changed your headlights into kitchen lights :wink: just like blue peter :scatter:
  4. nick have you any pics and a part number as i will be doing this as well please
  5. do you guys mind measuring the distance between your wheel arch and the centre of your wheel please. just to get some idea's
  6. so has anyone got these and if so are you happy with them. :D im not that happy, :( had koni's on my escort and was well happy but these fk's are just too hard :shock: in my opinion. i have too have the shocks preload set to 80% just to stop it bouncing. :shock: what about you lot
  7. i use summit too works well on a rolling road but on a normal road, all over the place
  8. check your tyre pressures with an independant gauge. buy one from halfords etc. and check. mine were 42 psi but my tyre pressure gauge on my pump was 28 psi

    boiling G60

    yep agree a common problem with the caps,also wont let pressure build as the higher the pressure relief point the higher the boiling point, also what concentrate of anti freeze you using
  10. down pipes, decat and full system for me please
  11. local stealers mate .. we charge 2 hours and £25 a bush just done mine and its a bugger, are you refitting oe bushes or powerflex ones
  12. in the panel above th headlights is a small hole that goes down to an adjuster on the back of the head light inner side. screw in to raise and out to lower
  13. right ive got a summit digital boost gauge and dont know what the readings mean at idle it reads 64.1 with the warning light on and at full boost reads 6.2 anyone got an idea what it means
  14. they both will if you start your engine when warm and still ticking over see if you have a good airflow out the exhaust pipe, if itslow you have a blockage. when it dies undo the joint in front of the cat so its loose and restart. if it now runs fine (though noisey) try the next joint and so on till you find the blockage, though it probably is the cat. do you have a voltmeter, if so measure the voltage on the single wire at the lamnba probe plug, 4 together and 1 single, voltage should be between .1 & .9v constanly changing. rev up and should change rapidly and if it doesnt all is slow it needs changing
  15. common fault is for the hall sender wires to short out and for the contacts in the plug to corrode. pull off the multi-plug and check all is clean and good. next remove cap, rotor and dust shield and look at the three wires that are in the base plate and see if any are cracked or splitting. if all is okay start her up and wiggle the plug and see if that stops the engine, if so new dizzy. if she cuts out when hot and doesnt restart for a while remove plug and check for a spark, if no spark, remove multi-plug from dizzy and put a piece of wire into the middle pin. now, whilst holding the coil lead close to a earth point with the ignition on, brush the wire to a earth point and if all is okay the lead will spark, and the injection pump will fire up briefly. hope this helps. The fuel filter on a G60 is another one of those things that VW never change on a service!-supercharged its designed to last 50,000 so is changed at 40,000 service. thats what we do at work , but personally i change mine yearly or 12000
  16. what type of locking wheel nuts do you have as there is things available cheaply to help let me know or post a pic and will tell you if they will work, a kit of four is £25 about £9 indervidually

  18. not an option so would like to find a way
  19. any one got one on there C or does anyone know if american/canadian cars had them equiped
  20. there is no electronic dumping only that the isv will only hold back a certain pressure before it blows past, and as the isv wears so the boost level it can withstand will be lower. this is when a check valve is a good idea
  21. my girlfriend calls mine "the good blue one" :mad:
  22. if you do one run then it could be a high or a low figure if somethings not quite right 2 runs shows an even figure
