VW designers should be beaten soundly.

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IS there ANYTHING on these bl@@dy cars that go according to plan?

I've just spent a good hour on a wee job that should have taken around five minutes-changing the headlamp bulb.

The actual bulb changing part didn't take long actually,it was trying to get that feckin peice of bent wire that VW laughingly refer to as a "bulb retainer"back into place. :mad:

Whoever designed that piece of toilet technology should have been taken outside and given a sound slap around the back of the head and told not to be so damn stoopid.

Sorry for the rant but something had to be said before I ended up in hospital with a ruptured vocabulary :lol:

:shock: :mad: :mad: :mad: :roll:

LOL the nearside one is a ba*tard of a job especially with the battery in the way I usually end taking the whole sodding unit out and doing it off the car! Big hands and small spaces dont mix very well :D

Its a damn sight easier to undo the three screws which hold the light in and then take the whole unit out!

 

Thats what I did when I replaced the loom and the bulbs. Tried messing without taking them out first of course! Task Too Difficult!!!!!!!

Doesn't the owners manual tell you to take the whole unit out to change the bulb anyway???

stormseeker, yep i believe so

Yeah, take them off to do Headlights, just note the wiring if you have an uprated loom and don't touch the bulbs!

 

BTW - the side lights can be got to on the car but a pair of pliers helps to get them out.
