  1. Hi can anyone help? My 95 VR won't start, I went out to it this morning got in turned the key and all that happened is a click. All the lights come on fine. If you keep trying it will start after about 15 attempts. I checked the voltage of the battery and got 12.7v when off and 14.8v when the cars start!

    Any ideas?

     

    Cheers, Lewis


  2. Got round to fitting some stuff today.

    Done- Main water pump ( turned out the old one was fine and intact with metal impellers, oh well replaced it anyway )

    V belt

    Radiator ( the old one was completely knackered and falling apart )

    New G13 coolant

     

    I now have normal coolant temperature at last :-D must have been the radiator causing the problems


  3. Thanks everyone for there help I have decided to order a new-

     

    radiator

    Water pump

    V belt

    G13 coolant

    Radiator fan switch

    Radiator top elbow + seal

    Manual fan over ride switch on dash

     

    That should hopefully help things :-)

     

    Craigowl I think i have seen u a few times , Do you live at Barons hill? Think I seen your car on a drive a few weeks ago


  4. Hi, I'm looking at installing a fan over ride switch on the dash in my VR for when I'm sitting in traffic in the summer ( when we get a summer that is :-D ) I was going to connect it to the black temp sensor to put speed 3 on but the fan comes on that fast it throws off the radiator belt that goes between the 2 fans. So i was hoping to connect it to speed 2 fan by connecting it to the thermostat on the radiator through a inline fuse, The two bottom terminals of the three I think it is. Would this be ok to do?

     

    Cheers


  5. Hi, I have a leak coming from between the oil filter housing and the engine block on my 95 VR6. I think it needs a new seal, I believe it's a figure 8 shape... Anyone any idea where I can get one? Went to VW today and they said there is 2 different types, one of which is obsolete :-(

     

    Cheers, Steven


  6. Hi, I'm looking at changing my coolant soon and just Wondered if there is anything else that I should change while I'm at it? Also should I use the G13 coolant, and If so how much will I need?

     

    Thanks, Steven
