Wayne2015 10 Posted March 14, 2015 No need top top up, in fact you may need to take some brake fluid out depending on how low your disks and pads are. Thanks Sean! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delfinis38 1 Posted March 16, 2015 give VW Heritage a call for the door handle screw and handle rubber... 10% discount today as its mothers day weekend :) with regard to passenger side lock yes that has a cover... second hand or heritage again... loads of pedal rubbers on ebay.... re.... door handle screws from memory one is left handed and one is right hand thread.... maybe why it sheared off.

Jim Bowen 1 Posted March 16, 2015 yeah, the drivers side one is a reverse thread. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wayne2015 10 Posted March 16, 2015 Cheers guys! I was thinking taking the passenger one and get local ironmonger to match the driver side bolt...else VW Heritage it is! :) Cool Will be on eBay ref pedal covers too :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was thinking taking the passenger one and get local ironmonger to match the driver side bolt...else VW Heritage it is! :) Cool Will be on eBay ref pedal covers too :) Jims probably right that the drivers side is the opposite thread.... I cant remember which side it is.... but don't force the screw in.... you may need to turn the screw driver as you where unscrewing it to pick the thread up.... a bit of thread lock on the screw may help in future..... if no joy from heritage go direct to VW... it's something you will find hard to match at you local screw shop.
