ardandy 0 Posted March 15, 2006 Things I'm planning to do on my C. Just wondering which is the best order to do it in? I'd like the bodywork done I reckon, in time for the summer but what do you think? 1, Bodyshop visit - All I want doing (£550) 2, Koni & H&R Sus Kit Fitted (£550 est) 3, Camber adjustment (£150 VW) 4, Injectors cleaned and flow tested (£250 inc removal and put back) 5, Reverse Parking Sensors (£200 fitted, little sensors in rear bumper, not num plate) 6, Fix pass heated electric seat (£??) 7, Regas/repair Aircon (£65 if its just a regas, although poss getting done sat as I'm nr the guy in Leeds) Wow, longer than I thought! First time I've written it down! Feel free to add anything I've missed thats a good thing to do. Wanting to keep it pretty standard looking, or OEM+ as the term appears to be!

STORM 2 0 Posted March 15, 2006 number five is very easy to do and can be done for less than £30 and a drill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ardandy 0 Posted March 15, 2006 4, Injectors cleaned and flow tested (£250 inc removal and put back) How much !!! you must be kidding,you can get new for that surely? £21 per injector (6) plus £120ish to take them out at my garage and then 2 days later put them back in again. Apparently you have to remove the inlet manifold and various bits to get them out. Brand new from VW each injector is £93! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ardandy 0 Posted March 15, 2006 Agree with injectors, the only thing that I have to add is that there is a bit of rust on the rear seams so I do want the bodywork doing as soon as I can. Ahhh, decisions decisions! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted March 16, 2006 Personally I'd be sorting the chassis first with the suspension and geometry set-up. Following that I'd do the engine stuff before fitting the reversing sensors. Then I'd take it to the bodyshop. Do the seat and air-con 'whenever'. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ardandy 0 Posted March 16, 2006 Trouble is, I want it all shiney for the summer! :) Aircon getting done sat as I'm next to the guy that does it and for the sake of £65 I might as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted March 16, 2006 £150 for the camber adjustment :shock: had mine done when i had my FK's put on i was charged £35 from midland vw. virtually any place that sells alloys can do it?? cant they.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted March 16, 2006 Well, in that case, it sounds like you already know what order you're doing stuff in. Shiney it is! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ardandy 0 Posted March 16, 2006 I suppose it was more of an after the bodywork order of things. £35? Sounds more like tracking to me than a camber adjustment. £75 for the readout and another £75 if it needs adjusting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KADVR6 0 Posted March 16, 2006 no it was the camber/tracking, i do get a bit of discount there, but not £115 worth. :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
