  1. Lol found the lever... Learn something new every day! Looks like it just needs a new handle. :D Stevef182- you still ok to give me your spare one?? Sent from my iPhone you lemon!
  2. Right Sooooo, I have a new power steering belt for an 8v golf. Same profile but 12mm shorter hopefully will be able to tighten this one up. Also, have been experiencing a distinct lack of power and this could be one of three things... 1/ I didn't tighten the alternator properly when i fixed it the other day and the belt isn't torqued correctly as a result. 2/ the charger is slowly dying. I know it's loosing oil already... This might be time to declare of road. 3/ i have an unknown problem... Boost leak, ignition problem etc I'm having a look over the car tonight so I'll let you guys no what I find. :) Sent from my iPhone you lemon!
  3. no he's right, Also conversely I know a chap who hooked his ABS light up to the ignition switch so it LOOKED like his ABS was working because he had fitted hubs without ABS sensors.... :lol: he went through fine ;)
  4. I am a little bit of a corrado retard though... i might have been driving round on a mk2 drivers seat for the past 2 years knowing me! I'll see if i can find it. I might be interested in the handle depending on what i find! ;)
  5. My passenger seat DEFIANTLY doesn't have a handle to adjust the height... could it be that I have a mk2 golf seat in my car? ---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ---------- or maybe the handle broke! oooo oooo! I'm going to go have a look again tonight! exciting stuff! ---------- Post added at 10:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ---------- thanks btw ;)
  6. hi there! I love my drivers seat... it's wicked. Especially with the new foam I've popped in the drivers side bolster. I realy like the OEM standard seats for their comfort on long runs. However the passenger side although mostly comfortable is far to high... most of my friends and my GF are quite tall and it's hard for them not to hit their head all the time. This is mainly because unlike the drivers side seat the passenger seat doesn't adjust up and down with the lever. My question is, can you fit the drivers side mech to a passenger seat? You'd need to keep the seat so that the handles are on the right side to lift the seat back but the mechanisum from a drivers seat? would it fit onto the seat correctly and would it fit into the passenger seat well correctly? :scratch:
  7. you didn't say how many you wanted in your pm... I guessed at 2 sets. If you look on the first post the list is there and your already on it.
  8. Agh poop, only just seen this... I think it's most likely a mixture of location and the current market. It's a shame but I think the price is more than fair... You could try advertising on Svag but they ask for a membership fee I think, or piston heads obviously. But I think your just too far away. Tis a shame your selling though but I suppose with the 16v going and the VR to fix you don't need the extra hassle of a third corrado. You could swap it for a nice black g60... I know one that would do you a treat ;) Sent from my iPhone you lemon!
  9. That would also work... It doesn't get TOO hot in the air intake, all you want is an air tight seal...
  10. Gasket paper from beal uk is quite cheap. Just make sure you keep the old one! Sent from my iPhone you lemon!
  11. VW mate... About £5 I think. Sent from my iPhone you lemon!
  12. more than half way i think... another 100 or so rollers should do it!
  13. no ones too late! WE need more PEOPLE! over 300 rollers and we should be good to go.
  14. yep... there wouldn't be enough power to get the ignition system working so the car would slowly get worse and worse until it died...
  15. Cheers buddy! I'm glad you found some motivation! I think I'm starting to run out :lol: Sent from my iPhone you lemon!
  16. dear god in heaven it's about time too! crack out the dear Dr Brown and let's get some time travel going on!
  17. Poor you... :( I first lived in South marston about 5 miles outside Swindon on the A420. Then I moved into stratton next to arkell's brewery in kingsdown. Then moved into the Black horse pub in wanbough to be closer to the beer :D Then moved to the George inn nr Kempsford (next to RAF fairford) then moved to Bristol for uni then moved to Scotland about 5 years ago ---------- Post added at 01:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ---------- to right i dodge the cake! they couldn't bake a cup cake up here without deep frying it! flipping heathens... ---------- Post added at 01:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:43 PM ---------- every heard of Tiffin? it's like Toffee that's gone wrong... essentially heated milk and sugar iuntill it's dry and crumbly like chalk... Like kendle mint cake without the mint and with the flavour of arse burgers... That's baking in Scotland. I miss Lardy Cake :(
  18. Orrrrr.... I'm lying and showing my true Scottish heritage by confusing the English and fighting/drinking and general good humoured fun! aye!
  19. sorry dude! I used to live about 30 mins outside Oxford on the A420, born in Swindon, studied in Bristol.... I'm a west country boy I just happen to live in snotland... Also Dundee cake tastes of arse :lol:
