no, pumping doesnt make it higher/normal...ive bled the whole car 3 times on a easybleed with the axle valve held open i bled it the order furthest from m/c to closest, is that right -
i saw them seats...thought theyd put that there as a joke, surley you can buy a rough corrado for £895

i pushed the valve across while it bled no i never bled the mc do they all have nipples???? and do i bleed that first -
ive just got done fitting mk4 calipers, a few hoses and pipes etc..i used an easy bleed to bleed the brakes and the handbrake works good trouble is the pedal goes almost to the floor before it works..not spongy though could i have damaged the master cly?? or just traped air...shoul i have pre filled the calipers

a genuine one should last around5 years or more...quickfit specials have failed me in under a year and sound nasty so, if you need a quick fix for the MOT and then sell it, go for the bossal ..if your keeping it go for genune

mine got better with reds, i guess i can get close to 30 if i drive carefully
-
ive had dealings with jabba a few times , im not really impressed with their attitude or customer service and the stg 4 gas flowing is little more than a quick tickle up i must admit it has always made good boost, but next time i'll either tackle it myself or try to pitstop
-
i was scared sh1tless about getting my bolt out...it came out with a hefty breaker bar , similar in tightness to a driveshaft nut maybe ask around see if anyone has a cordless impact gun..mine would wizz one out
-
ive always had good results cleanin the isv by getting a jar of petrol/thinners and dangle the isv into the jar while its still wired in leave the ign on for 10 mins and give it a slosh around now and then
