Jim 2 Posted September 21, 2015 Pretty sure you can still get these from VW, Mic? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie 1 Posted September 21, 2015 Pretty sure you can still get these from VW, Mic? You can but they're around £25 Jim. If you're that bothered Mic just use a normal bit of wire. I'm not even sure why it's needed really. Mine was broken by the bodyshop and I've not replaced it doesn't seem to be causing any I'll effects...

loepan 11 Posted September 21, 2015 yep dox is right, radio interference mainly on mw/lw wavelength bands and also jamie you lose 10bhp if you don't have it connected ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mic_VR 3 Posted September 21, 2015 Yeah, I was just interested because mines split and this was only £10. Could pop to the dealer or just use a generic one.... if I get to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fendervg 32 Posted September 21, 2015 You lose another 5BHP if you don't have the earth strap on the distributor cap too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's interesting Ian when mine broke iq rang the dealer and was quoted 21 something plus vat I think it was, hence I don't have one and my cars faster.

seanl82 23 Posted September 21, 2015 I just bought a braided earth strap from ebay in exactly the same dimesions for about £2, and put some heat shrink over it. Looks exactly like the stock one but for about 1/10th the price! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
