dinkus 10 Posted May 18, 2005 Remove switch, douse in contact cleaner, re-fit switch. 99% certain to fix the problem. Edit: Might even be able to do it in-situ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted May 18, 2005 Were your Recaros factory fitted? Oh, and I notice you now have another C so which one has them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dinkus 10 Posted May 18, 2005 Looks like those rear calipers could do with replacing... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinkus 10 Posted May 18, 2005 :lol: That handbrake handle looks pretty high, but then I think I was just used to seeing mine with new mk4 calipers and a freshly adjusted cable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walesy 0 Posted May 20, 2005 does the switch come off in the same sorta way as the late heater controls?....i always feel like i breaking them when i take them off!.....i cant see another way of removing the switch except prising them off with a screwdriver?...
