  1. VAC leak maybe as the MPG is always high, this may also affect the MAP sensor and the point at where it retards the timing.
  2. Supercharged

    Bust odometer

    The speedo still works then?
  3. Track Rods = 32mm spannerage - make sure you get ones with 6 sides (as opposed to 2) if you buy from GSF as space is very limited, you need to move the rack until you can get a spanner between the wishbone and subframe...
  4. Yep, thats a blocked sunroof drain channel... use a guitar string or bicycle gear cable to 'rod' it out....

    16V Belts

    I think there is a seperate small belt for the PAS, there is also a cam chain which may be worth changing while doing the belt.
  6. Only a loose tensioner really... I'd get him to check/change the crank bolt if I were you...
  7. Yep, available seperatly from the dealer as well...
  8. Yeah, if you've got one of the newer chips the the FPR won't be needed
  9. £1k for a new charger plus a boost system cleaned and engine apart and inspected for debris if it goes bang so best to get it done really! If your cars done 80k miles or more and the charger hasn't been off then get it looked at asap! My charger was in good condition at 89k but the small timing belt was about to snap and the oil feed was broken!! MysticBlueStorm, as your down that way best to get you car in to be set up, you won't beleive the difference it can make!

    Headlights

    Yep, the early ones are about 2cm off the later ones so you need the black surround as well...
  11. Very nice - what fitment are they?? are you using adapters or changing the hubs?
  12. Yep - also check out http://www.sniffpetrol.com for their James Allen is a c0ck campaign.
  13. As its a Storm i'd keep it standard, VAG exhaust will last another 8-10 years!
  14. Nope just get the big washer bottle and fill it up roughly every time you get petrol.
  15. Bl00dy hell - I found the dealers the cheapest place to get a proper VW key and they cut it for free but never had to get a chipped one... Have you tried Timpsons - thats where i got my spare alarm keyfob from...
