    Cheap new from VW - new ones are black.

    I'd raise the car - handling must be awful the way it is!
  3. Supercharged
    I did mine without removing the dash - took 1.5 hours to get it out! .... and then another week or so to replace it :-)

    I'm not actually sure but heard you can do it... I've only ever changed complete regulators as the wires usually go rusty and snap.
  5. Supercharged
    Yep - drill out the 3 rivetts!
  6. Supercharged
    On a valver I think it would as the mechanical injection relies on vacumn.

    Belts easy as on a VR and Euro sell Conti ones, same as VW When off have a good look at the waterpump to see if there is any plau or roughness...

    FT will be fine!
  9. Supercharged
    Heh - I think it's safe to say it's fooked!

    If it hot starts ok then just change the part... still available from VW I would think

    Welcome to the forum! That's the cold start valve or '5th injector' - it's most likely stuck open so when plugged in it's flooding the engine. The wiring looks a bit suspect too - you need to have a good tidy up and re-wrap some of the wires / make sure they are clipped in properly

    Good man - make sure it's a decent quality M8x80 bolt (grade 8.8 and above) as you don't want it snapping! I remember doing the one on Dom's car agaes ago - use the ratchet spanners to get the tensioner bolts off as they will be tight and they give you good advantage.

    You need to be very careful with the piston / bore surface and not to get anything inside... maybe best left to a specialist

    No idea what's going on here but the car is a set width so you'd never need shorter track rods.. What Car is it?? If it's not a VR are you sure it doesn't have the (longer) VR6 track rods fitted incorrectly?

    I have brand new Mintex discs and pads - £100 + £10 postage
  16. Supercharged
    Yup - I picked a set up from Mr Crotch yesterday... £37+vat and look much better quality than the last set I bought around 6 years ago!

  18. Supercharged

    Why can't Stevie Wonder read? ...becuase he's black
  21. Supercharged
    It's not obselete mate - they wouldn't make a servicing grease obselete!!
  22. Supercharged
    £20 for a day ticket - ****takers!
  23. Supercharged
    And I have the same in a Corrado which is 25% lighter :-) 6 Spd would be nice on a VR but I reckon an LPG conversion is what you want...
  24. Supercharged
    What work were you doing??
  25. Supercharged
    You should be able to order one - usually a fiver from VW? Call another dealer or TPS centre - should be able to order it next day...
