  1. If your fans arnt working then theres your problem
  2. Might hire a smoke machine to see where its getting in
  3. The new membrane stuff comes in grey foam now
  4. Not always some stuff stays on the shelf for years
  5. That stamp will be when the filter was manufactured mate
  6. Mine steams up usually at the back on the inside right ******* to remove aswell because you have to phyiscally get out the car and wipe it off.
  7. Ah right didnt notice the stainless fittings good price then.
  8. For the price id rather get goodridge brakelines think they are omly another 10-15 quid
  9. Since replacing mine with a new standard one I find you dont need he-man strength
  10. Yeah daily driver here, the heatermatrix going in december really was the worst time for it to happen but luckily its was a pretty mild december so was able to do it in a couple of days outside the house, using a torch when it got dark. So yours is fogging up a lot because of the leak into the cabin that sounds about right, mine hardly foggs up anymore since the heatermatix change. Only bit that occasionally fogs up is the rear window but whos car doesnt
  11. Up to you mate at least that one has a non return valve
  12. That part number should have given you the metal one. Im suprised that the filter fitted as I was under the impression they wernt interchangeable as there are two types of plastic filter attachments one for the metal and one for plastic filter
  13. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Comline-Audi-Ford-Jeep-Mercedes-Porsche-VW-Car-Replacement-Oil-Filter-/201016915118?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AGolf|Cars+Type%3A2.8+VR6&hash=item2ecd8ab4ae Like this one
  14. http://the-corrado.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=46935&d=1305999495 This is what you should be getting with that part number
  15. If the metal one came out of the oil filter housing then only a metal one would fit unless for some reason tey have switched to plastic. Any pics of the plastic one (new one)?
  16. Thats mad that the switch was the cause but glad you got there mate
  17. The GF got some right angle screwdriver type things(shape of an allenkey but crossheads on each end) and that did the job. If you still struggle with the screw then just take the dashout
  18. Stereo/heater dial stuff after doing it twice last year (my car and the GF's) yeah it is probably easier taking dash out but didnt want to disturb anything so i would be left with rattles
  19. You can do it without removing the dash too you need to remove is the centre console and the glovebox then the whole heaterbox comes out through the passenger side undertray area
  20. Its easy Jim you just have to remove the plastic trim that runs along the back of the headlining that then gives you access. Cheers for the heads up with the aerial which package did you go with on the list buttles?
  21. Sorry it didnt work mate, sounds like a puzzling problem good luck with it
  22. Yeah itll be the slip ring behind loose somewhere
