    Geraldine, worry about the bits in the sump mate - thats from an old dipstick tube. What was the oil pump pickup strainer like? Block - I would take it to Scholar engines in Eye and get them to tank it and maybe check the tolerances etc.

    Tools catalogue mate! Counter-hold tool for toothed belt sprocket T3099 - Locking crankshaft sprocket

    Don't think driers are expensive at all mate - just buy new from VW

    Maybe a dodgy fuse / cconnection - worth re-seating or replacing it

    Using Coolant

    Supercharged replied to Teji's topic in Engine Bay

    Rad welds particuarly bad in a VR because of the small water ways in the block. Like Walesy says though, best not to use it at all and fix the problem properly!

    Using Coolant

    Supercharged replied to Teji's topic in Engine Bay

    Err yeah don't use rad-weld, especially in a VR! For coolant leaks you need to look for white staining on pipes and on the block around the plastic coolant flanges.

    It's on the ECU page I think - If you just search for ground strap or earth strap you'll find it

    Crossflow G60

    Supercharged replied to INA's topic in Engine Bay

    Be interested to see what tensioning system you use - ABF maybe?

    The pictures offend me - change them now - it will look better on bricks!

    Very nice - I use a flexi-head ratchet spanner but that's a much better idea! Let me know how much $ if you start making them...

    If it's only occured since the dampers were fitted I would suspect a spring maybe not seated correctly - I'd take it back to where they were done for diagnosis
  14. Supercharged
    Yeah the other bits a dirt cheap - just the column which is about £70 I think so most of us have found them second hand - I managed to find a brand new one at a show for a quid!

    It's 4mm - I'd just buy it from VW, not expensive at all and seems to last much longer than the generic stuff!

    Copy and paste the detail up on here... The light only comes on when the ABS is disabled - these faults might not do this.
  17. Supercharged
    That ain't right at all Tom! ALL VW's should run with the gauge bang in the middle on 90 degree's - if it seems to be consistently higher or lower then there is a fault.

    The polo is the same part as the Corrado one mate - see the pic above, they both have the small spline
  19. Supercharged
    The Corrado uses a splined adapter - if you remove this you then have a small one underneath!

    You've obviously not 'had the pleasure'... I really don't think we want to let the Toad get out more than he currently does!

    Toad's my hero :camp:

    Silkolene make some great products but I just can't really justify the cost when the VW Platinum is so cheap and I never leave any oil in an engine more than 5k miles...

    Crossflow G60

    Supercharged replied to INA's topic in Engine Bay

    Issam, good to see you on here! So it's an ABA head with an AZG manifold on a G60 block? Any other engine parts uprated? What sort of power will this make compared to the standard PG lump?
  24. Supercharged
    VW strangely enough! I doubt they will cost you anything either
  25. Supercharged
    Yeah they can't be obselete - will just be replaced... Stainless is better for those though really!
