lovely jubbly! mechanic rang & the VR is ready to be collected it seems there was a pin hole in my oil cooler somewhere & it was causing the leak when pressurised new penny washer on the rear exhaust heat shield mean no more annoying little squeak when going over small bumps - that took me a little bit to work out I can tell you & freshly refurb'd speedlines now have my bridgestone tread on them & ready to roll just need to get to work on getting the centre caps painted to match oh yeah & the small issue of trying to fit 3 rado's on my drive lol

im lost for words reading the last few posts wayne however i am not understanding how a garage can rack up such a bill & give you a diagnosis when they haven't, or cant, even plus it in to the diagnostics you could drive into VW & pay them £50, ie a fraction of your current bill, & they would hook it up & give you a read out of errors etc plus, how can they have ran diagnostics if they haven't got VAGCOM it is making me wish you lived down by me as i would send you to my mechanic it is such a shame as you really need to enjoy this motor m8

ha ha please don't encourage me chuggs lol you're right i have seen quite a few G60's advertised as well lately & yes to find an unmolested one would be a challenge fitting 3 on my drive is going to be tight so a 4th is a no no plus i have a big birthday next april & am kinda hoping i might finally get the keys i have been hoping to get for many many years

The definitive "What Air Filter?" discussion thread
g0ldf1ng3r replied to CazzaVR's topic in Engine Bay
Hassan - your not to far away from Stealth in banbury, give Vince a call there & he will order the correct one for you & also make sure he gets the extra silicone hose you need to connect it up to your air intake -
lovely jubbly :)

indeed the KW V1's are a little firm but the suspension is not at fault, it is our awful UK roads get them on smooth surfaces & round the twisty's they are superb. i haven't touched my ARB's & absolutely love taking the VR round the clover leaf where i live IIRC KW will provide the V1's with a slightly softer spring rate, which i think Kev Bacon said was excellent as it removed a little harshness without compromising the performance too much. im sure if you drop him a PM he wouldn't mind sharing the info that would be a slightly cheaper option than the V2's & once you have set the height as you desire you can just enjoy them & not worry about fiddling with bound & rebound rates etc

im in it up to my knees m8! i do have 3 if you count the gf's storm lol my wallet goes into hiding when either of us sees a nice G60 in the classifieds ;)

if the head unit is loosing all of its settings, time etc, when you remove the key then it sounds like you have got the permanent & switchable live the wrong way round - you should be able to swap them over fairly easy as someone else said the standard door speaker size is 5.25" FYI they mount from the inside of the door card, thus need to remove the door card to fit & there is only a limited depth i have the below & they fit ok, plus there is room in the door pod for the passive crossover http://www.crutchfield.com/S-0WYmIYSbFtd/p_108529I/Infinity-Kappa-52-9i.html

ha ha was it a red one as well m8 ;) lol

exactly, we all do it lol
-
excellent news m8!! as mentioned the VR manual is one of the many i have which i actually read, rather than just store, & a gem of a piece of info it produced :) lol
-
well spotted chugs be careful what you wish for m8, 2 is starting to be a challenge.....3 in the family is a little insane lol
-
what a difficult but inspiring post im sorry im at the other end of the country else i would like to have helped good luck, im sure there will be people on here who will assist
-
your head unit should have a permanent live & a switchable live connection - the former is to retain memory settings etc it should also have a remote wire output for you to connect the amp remote wire to does the wiring behind the stereo have the factory connectors or have they been cut?
