VW but you'll need to order - try Jabba or G-werks
-
New - £20
-
From either VW or Seat dealers - they used to be something silly like £32 each!
-
Sure it wasn't when you filled up with fuel?
-
Your really best off buying from a VW or Seat dealer - Cheap as chips (£50 each over here) and last ages! As above the shipping cost will be a lot and I think the reason no one replied at first was the fact that you only have 7 posts on this forum and they are all in this thread!

Same thing happened in Norfolk about 10 years ago - don't think the passengers were so lucky that time!
-
Could be or could be the brash bush in the gear box? What make was it - I had a 'brand new' chinese one from GSF once for a MK3 and it was worse that the one I took out!

Dudes, new LHD glove box door on eBay! -
Change it, they usually only last 10 years max!

The steering rack is knackered on my car. The garage said the gear wheel is missing but that's just a matter of a pinion.
-
It's a sheild for the stub axle bolts - may also stop the oil seal getting damaged or popping out. They usually ask you if you want that when ordering the bearing kit - couple of quid extra and there is an ABS or non-ABS version
-
Could be just rusty - they needs replacing eventually - new numberplate lights are £12 from VW

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/SearchCmd?srch=g3&x=0&y=0&action=search&storeId=10001&catalogId=10151&langId=-1 Way cheaper than any bodyshop supplier!

If it blows instantly then it's a dead short - dash lights are usually reliable so I would suspect the issue to be at the back. Take the panel off and unplug the numberplate light loom - test a fuse... if it's ok then turn on the dash lights, if still ok then you know it's at the back. I'd have a good look at the wiring back there - you may find it's shorting on the body, may not have been put back correctly after a spoiler / wiper motor change.
-
Yeah - will be alram for remote locking - trace it back, you may find a box under the rear seats
-
Irwin's are cheapest at Homebase - especially on one of there 15% off weekends
-
Awesome!
-
Bleeding might fix it for a bit but this really only needs doing every 5 years or so... The slave doesn't leak badly at first - if it's a painted part I would change it as it could be original - new ones are alloy You can bleed in the traditional method but much easier with an eezibleed - especially if on your own

Your mum?
-
Yan, I can always pop up there and have a word if needed... only up the road and want to get a heel pad sewn into my original mats
-
Excellent idea and looks a very professional setup - I'd be in there like a shot if it was near me! I know people had mentioned doing something similar before but I thought the liability insurance side of things put a downer on the business model. If this works and makes a profit then fantastic and hopefully more sill start popping up around the UK!

MK3 Golf in scrap yard!

Cars like that are pretty much worthless - you'd spend thousands getting it to a decent standard
-
Similar thing happened to me last year - repair was £2600 but car was agreed value of £5k so they had to repair it. Just be careful who does it - I wasn't happy with my repair and it's been back 4 times so far and it's still not 100%

The 2 part stuff from Halfords is the daddy
