Had it aswell turned out to be sensors and rear abs cages but you'll need vag com to confirm. Also if its getting to the point where its dangerous to drive it pull one of the abs sensor plugs off on the top front suspension turret abs light will permanently go stay on but you wont get any weird problems till you get it sorted

Cool

Just noticed on CCGB registering for stanford hall i put 2 people down for (number of people) and the allocation left went down by to from 16 to 14 just changed it to 1 person (number of people) and its gone back up to 15. I was under the impression when it asked for number of people its how many in the car? If thats the case then you might need to ask people to change it back to one person Also a quick count of how many are down for the stand and the numbers dont add up theres 24 peoples names down and only 15 places left = 39 on club stand i thought it was 50?

Enjoy the bill at vw

Cheers will look into the switch thing, as said im getting clicking from the rear module when the switch is pressed though will that mean the switch is ok? I checked the module connector blocks today and sprayed electrical cleaner in them nothing was loose

Interested in the window module etc how much posted?

Still got it mate £50 quid posted to uk mainland where are you based?

Well had the rear quarter panel off and checked for continuity across the pins and apparently its open circuit checked wires up to fuse box and all alright so now im stuck

Yeah i tried the opening passenger window thing and then it began to work last time doesnt work now though....glad that youve ruled out wiring and regulator as heard its a ballache to get at especially when the window is stuck in the up position ---------- Post added at 8:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 8:21 AM ---------- And yeah never had any problems with.mine either just started out the blue but suppose these things do

Just had a read through the bentley manual and its says about checking the window module will have a look tomorrow

Think is when it does work theres nothing to indicate its the guides, no nasty noises etc

Right all started when i went to leave an NCP car park pressed the electric window switch and nothing happened had to get the GF to get out and put the ticket in to open the barrier. Tried the switch all the way home and still nothing but the relay click from behind the drivers rear quarter. Got home and had the door open and held the button after 2 seconds the window worked fine both up and down perfect i thought. Roll on a month and 1/2 later and was about to leave work and thought id roll down the window and nothing again (passenger side worked fine), got home and still nothing left it the night and was driving to work in the morning and it worked again. Just tried it again now on the drive and nothing again, switch activates the relays and there is power drawn as can be seen on the volt gauges. Stripped the door card off to see if i could see/feel anything wrong, nothing i can see both cables are still connected. Ive tried swapping the switch from the passenger side and it still just makes the relay click Anyone shed any light ?

Reason i ask as mines going down to Vince on the 2nd March for a bottom end rebuild and some other things

Any news on this did you get it sorted mate?

Ive always filled from the top rubber hose as then it goes through the housing etc making it less likely to have an airlock. done it that way loads of times and never had a problem

Can i have a set please?

Cheers shower is a good shout didnt think of that

Just took apart a spare vr6 inlet manifold and took the throttle body off and noticed pieces of swarf/metal inside i presume the engine it came off had some problems. Anyway whats the best way to get all the swarf bits out? Im going to get it vapour blasted but want all that metal out of the inside before i take it down Cheers Jon

What about the yellow temp sensor on the thermo housing when was that last changed? My brothers fans were always coming on at stage 3 yellow temp sensor change (for the now brown one) and all is well

^^You mean tensioner pulley

Any more before i get the rest needed from vw? ---------- Post added at 10:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ---------- Also there are two oil coolers listed on etka one being more expensive than the other why is that? And is it a part that needs to be replaced or should it be alright?

Where did you buy it for £99 craig?
