  1. Thanks for the reply, it's plastic I found its a universal replacement plug.
  2. I'm after the connector block and wires for the lambda sensor to ecu side from a 2.0 16v four wires
  3. Thanks, really well priced too. Al have some of those for the avant.
  4. Mine would tramline on certain roads/white lines. What a difference a little geometry setup makes.
  5. They'll look good in the Wolfsburg surrounds. I've got period 3D look with honeycomb background (illegal now) but they are getting tatty now and would like to replace them with the same I've got. Do you have a link for yours ?
  6. Wow ! That's a deep shine. I like the period style plates that's on.
  7. Let's see a pic of it on the tank flap. Yeah, oil spots from the leaking sump on the Audi. The youngest car in the fleet makes the biggest mess. The drives only been down a few month too.
  8. I've got a baby on the way, hence the avant, so the c is on the back burner for now.
  9. I'm on that "I'll get around to sorting it one day" bus with the paint and a few other jobs. Mines alpine white.
  10. I think silver and and a little lower but I'm biased. I bet it look loads better with the standard rear lights. Is yours candy white ?
  11. Cleaned all the sap and tree rubbish off, turns out trees really stain white cars.
  12. Yeah, white just looks fresh, we've got a silver A4 2.5tdi Avant Quattro sport that I would love to have wrapped white. I've got all red rears on all the cars but the golf, ran out of red tint. Get some red tint film on the crystals.
  13. Moved it from my mams field where it has stood with the golf under a tree for 2 month While it's new home and drive was constructed. The golf needed a jump but the corrado just fired into life on its own.
  14. And on the original wheels
  15. Monday night I walked in to " Do you know where my petrol cap is ?" off her indoors. She could never work the cabby petrol cap so I just left it unlocked for her, now she's left it on the roof n drove off, so she's rocking a push in temporary cap from the garage. Women, know your limits !
  16. Drilling the air box has been around for years to get more air into the intake. You also get the induction noise as well which I like. As for fuel consumption, the engine isn't trying to get all it's air through a golf ball sized hole so should be better but since I like the noise it's making I'm putting my foot down a bit more then I usually would. I'm using an eBay special "K&N" panel filter.
  17. Removed all this crap and cut a git hole in the wing side. Sounds mint.
  18. I did a search on this and couldn't find much info or pics. Even on Google. So to get the bottom half of the air box out you have to get the top half out the way. Unclip the two electrical connectors from the metering head. Undo the the jubilee clip at the throttle body and remove the intake pipe. Unclip the four air box clips to remove the air filter. Remove the screw that holds the little headlight cover. Now lift the metering head up just enough to get the bottom half out, it just sits on four little pegs with rubber feet. Now take it in the kitchen when she's at work to get out the cold. Firstly I got rid of the part that would sit in the cut out for the head light. The hole in this is smaller than a golf ball for the air to get into the air box. To remove this it takes a good shove towards where the headlight would be. After swearing at it for hurting your hand, move onto the vacuum flap, three overly tight screws, done. Now the pipe that the flap covers for cold starts. Two little clips push in then twist the pipe to remove. Now the fun part, get the hacksaw and start cutting along the reinforcement as much as you can in all directions. Three cuts then remove the blade, wrap kitchen roll round the blade and parcel tape your new handle into place. Cut the last of all cuts this way until the part drops out. Put the bottom back in and replace the metering head with new/clean filter, connect the intake pipe and two connectors, start the engine and rev the poop out of it. Sounds amazing and the throttle response is way better.
