not according to the episode i watched last night - gone & no notice period i wonder if it was 'entertainment value' that he quit & walked out on the day he returned off his holidays - i couldnt tell if richard was genuinely shocked or acting

pleasure i think a recode may be dealer only but im not 100%

hi m8 yes it does if key & immob ring around ignition do not match the car will start but then shut off a second or 2 later some key you can split apart so it could be possible to swap the chips over - if that is an option if not it is a recode at VW

yes thanks Jim i saw that on their site i have emailed them to see if any exceptions can be made

no-one with a breaker with decent late wings? i wonder if spoonfed can help - queue email...

ahhh feck!!! i did wonder about their lack of activity :( thanks graphite - on the hunt i go

well the VR is back & damn id forgotten how quick it is! lol Billet 4's not fully bedded in yet but initial feel is that they are going to be awesome :D the is a ignition key width of clearance between the outer edge of caliper & inner edge of wheel face lol idle playing up even after a couple of short runs so may treat her to a new one if it doesnt start to behave cold with no matrix on the way to work this morning but my heated seat behaved thankfully

Hi all has anyone got a pair of decent late wings or maybe some carbon fiber wings? cant see the CF wings listed on LWS design anymore but am sorely tempted to phone them with the price of new standard wings from classic parts thanks

damn these are nice & a cracking price!! if i hadnt just spent out on new 4 pot brakes i would be biting your hand off GLWS

hi Adam i am not sure what the current price will be but am sure KUR2Y will work it out based somewhere around the old figure & dependaing on how many are wanted. i will add you to the list & then you can yay or nay when KUR2Y can finalise the details when he is back in the UK & preparing to make them for people updated list as of 17th march: VR6Lee delfinis38 brownbear85 Dogma Longjon Geeba Acecross Adammcc34

ha ha ha no danger

lol thanks delfinis i doubt there is much profit in them TBH m8 but my motivation is purely to help other rado drivers see well in the dark & avoid being left in a dark lane without lights if they had a 2 relay version & 1 relay blows whilst out & about that said if KUR2Y fancies doing me another for free in return for my help then i would gladly remove the VR one & re-fit it in a better route lol the one i fitted in my valver was the 3rd time installing one & i felt i did a much better job :) i appreciate you, as others have done also, in expressing thanks to me for assisting

will do :)

pleasure m8 :)

give VW Heritage a call ask for Luke, he helped me get to the bottom of the VW-USA recall for a pressure reducer in the matrix feed hose you want a mk3 golf matrix as they had the pressure issue sorted on them part number 1H2819031A should be £24.09

of course you may - added to list & updated

only time i have removed one was when i fitted a daves16v short shifter in my VR but i cant recall the procedure you could try looking at the short shifter thread to see if that gives you a clue i dont remember it being difficult

thats ok fella not to worry :)

lol not yet Dogma, bit premature i did say in my other post that he had said he was away for 4 weeks as of 20th feb ;)

i believe they do as i think they are generic part for late or early rado's i will be fitting one in my '90 valver this weekend & already have one in my VR

your description sounds normal for 12v VR6 i would say & i doubt it would get much quieter with new lifters

AFIK the tappets/lifters will always be more noisey when the engine is cold started as they are hydraulic. they are that way inherently by design i think i am pretty sure Stealth replaced mine during my head rebuild & the new ones were still loud ish until warmed up how is the noise once the engine is warm?

not had a chuftie for a while but this one raised a big smile after paying for vpower a returning to the valver the guy at the next pump was filling his aston martin & rained down praise on the old girl whilst saying he thinks the prices for them will rocket in the next 10 years made me chuckle to myself as i drove off too, it is a nice feeling when someone in a £80 odd grand aston loves your little corrado :D lol
