  1. i think its just the runners where the little metal sliding plate goes thats where you want the copper grease and a little where the caliper touches the pad should fix the problem :D
  2. yes the good old english weather is PONY :(
  3. gutted for you mate i know only too well about (hit and runs) :mad2: hope you get it fixed soon
  4. its sad the lack of useful features even my mates 62 beetle has a lights on warning buzzer :( however im not sure that was std :lol:
  5. very odd i have this too and was on my list of things to investigate prob nothing that copper slip cant fix and as said some filing :D
  6. just kidding prefer the sebrings my self !!
  7. the MENZERNA range is the best polish's i have used but this is with a machine i have tried megs polishes sonus polishes 3m polishes but prefer the menzerna over all it just does the job the best i guess for me and as for wax/sealents the best wax i have used is colonite 915 and best sealent is zaino z2 with the zfx additive 3x coats lasts 6 months easily and is great for matalics as the flake pop is really good my 2 pence worth :D
  8. interesting points there kev but do you think the fact that your now using a harder compound tyre in colder weather will somewot effect your findings i think perhaps if you had the kumho's put on the the slightly warmer weather i think you may have been a little happier. and as far as running in the wet with them i thought they were quite good (i have had a lot worse) and quite predictable as long as they were not pushed past their limit but this would be the same for most tyres in the wet
  9. this is the way forward i think ,still both are vag i guess :D
  10. wooooopps i totaly forgot to put the pics up really sorry :(
  11. need to move the scuttle cover back on the left hand side then that reveals a 10mm nut which you need to undo then disconnect the wiring loom then push the ecu towards the fan air intake to unclip it from the rest of the retaining clips then wiggle out its very tight (oohh er missus) :D hope this helps
  12. well to see if it is that first i would spray some wd40 into the bearing first if it quietens down then it that there is a howto change the bearing in the wiki but you could also replace the whole thing for aroung £30-40 quid with a part from ebay
  13. a nice idea but id sooner keep the wiper to clear the back window so i can see out of it :D
  14. serpentine belt tennsioner bearing needs sorting mate !!
  15. also interested as to why it sounded better and how as i have some 263's comming at the end of the month ????
  16. there is normally wings and various pannels on this forum for sale that can be picked up a far less than stealer price i would look at people breaking parts and go down that route :D
  17. Thanks that would be pretty cool, just a quick glance to see if it says anything about servicing the valve or what oil pressures should be, I'm a bit gutted to say the least as everything was running so well :( gotta get you back up and running just in case i need help with mine :lol: :lol: serious i will have a butchers later for you and scan the pages for you to have a look if i can't sus it !!
  18. i can have a look in the bently bible later if you like and see what it says
  19. ben have you tried the menzerna polishes they are top notch autoglym super resin polish only fills the scratches it does not get rid of them but looking good :D so far
  20. sure why not :D do you have a spare one going for £25 :lol: :lol: would be nice but get cams done first i think :D
