My VR failed its MOT today on a rear wheel bearing. I already have new bearings/discs/pads/abs rings. Anybody got a good idea what ballpark the labour cost to change a bearing should be? As all the other bits would have to come off to do it, there shouldn't be any additional cost to put the new replacement bits on at the same time.i assume?

Got mine too yesterday :) Probably wont see any use until over the winter when I plan to do most of the work on the car.

Good stuff :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, pull the gear stick gator up and you will see it. No idea why it only worked once, annoying though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My 94 VR has the 16 pin connector, so you may not need the 2x2 adaptor. For the cost though, you may as well grab one if you can't check the car yet. As far as getting the cables to work, mine read the codes once, and never worked again. And because I didn't expect it not to work again, I didn't take a note of any of the codes it had read either :( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not in Loughborough any more, but was my stomping ground for many years having lived in Loughborough, Mountsorrel and Shepshed. Welcome to the forum.

I've never seen/had an MOT tester check the light pattern from my fog lights before, only that they come on, is that a new check? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is there anyone in the Basingstoke area that can do a vagcom check on my VR? ABS light is permanently on, so there must be a code lurking for that, and probably others. If not, anyone know what VW charge for a reading? I asked them to do it when I had my geo done, they said they had, but I can't see how they could've with the abs light being on. To be fair to them, the lamp is disconnected at the moment so they wouldn't know there was an abs fault, but they should've still done a reading :( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Films over the long weekend.... "Prometheus", visually, 9/10, story 7/10. Despite what I've read, it seems like an "Alien" prequel to me. "Woman in Black". Really enjoyed it. Despite the 12 rating, I challenge any 12 year old not to sh1t a couple of bricks during the film. 9/10. "In Time", again, really enjoyed this and I liked the story line, 9/10. ...... All in all, a good result on the film front considering some of the disappointing films out recently. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is that not what the two brackets are top and bottom (4 in all) at the right hand end of the rad in the pics? You just move them to where you want them, or have I missed what you mean? :shrug:

Cheers Ben. Can you PM me payment details please mate for the bonnet strut? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If Ben hasn't bagged the bonnet strut, can I have second dibs please?

I'm interested in these. What P&P are you looking at?

I can vouch for MyAlloys in Basingstoke. I've had two sets of 18 x 8.5 and 18 x 10 wheels done there. One set in bright silver, one set in anthracite. Very pleased with both sets. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry mate, not interested now that the price has doubled for all four.

PM'ed you yesterday, just in case you hadn't realised. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do you have the door locking pin surrounds/trims (on the top edge of the door cards)? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What postage costs are we looking at?

I'll take the all red rears mate. Can you post? Paypal? I take it it is all four clusters?

I would at least make them powder coat the tyre mount surfaces so that tyres can still be mounted. At least some compensation for the major **** up they have made. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yup, interested in that, what price you looking for mate?
