timg60 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Spent 4 hours putting on the rear discs, pads and new bearings. Plus fitted Goodridge hoses all round. Anyone else had a gel type stuff coming out the brake lines when bleading them? :oops: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 26, 2006 Did an oil change on the 24v last night. How Easy!!! Much easier than any other car I have ever done. Plus the oil, filter and sump plug only cost a total of £21 from VW. Nice! :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted April 26, 2006 Dunno if its the same on the V6 as it is on the TDI but you don't technically even need to get under the car to change the oil on mine! If you get a Pella oil pump you can just suck the old oil out, and the filter / housing is directly accessible at the front of the engine bay with the engine cover off! So easy!

24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 26, 2006 They are different mate. The V6 one points down, where the Diesel one points upwards. I can't even see under the front of my car without jacking it up, let alone change the filter :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
