    Most likley be overspray that was left on the pannels. See what next time you polish
  4. SankysVR6
    What polish did you use. It might be just bit overspray that might have been left on the car. Try running your hand over the car when its clean to feel the surface it should be smooth every where.

    It all depends how mechanically minded you are i guess (i) I had a play with my linkages but only because i was trying to improve the gear change. I was thinking abiut your problem last night. And may be you should get somebody in the car depress the clutch pedal and see if you can see any movment near the gearbox. heres the post about the linkages http://www.houseofthud.com/shifting_gti.htm
  8. SankysVR6
    Could be the gear linkages that need adjusting. I've got some posts at work telling you how to adjust them i'll PM you the links when i'm back at work tommorow

    If you do it yourself, you will have to clean the chip out fill it with paint, i find a tooh pick good for this. And then let it dry for a couple of days. Rub it down using some mild rubbing compound G3 or something untill the stonechip is flat with the rest of the paint around it. Apply a ploish of your choice and buff it up to nice shine. But to be honest £70 isn't much, and i would personaly give it to the body shop to do. As they'll have all the gear and might get better results

    there used to be someone selling them on ebay, they were made out of the standard car jack that was adapted to bolt on the hub. There was also a post telling you how to make it. I'lll try and dig the post out if i can find it

    Nice write up Claire, good to see the picturs of the car going through the transformation.

    If its had full synthectic from new i would try the Gold as thats the VW recommended brand. But depending on how noisey the engine if its tappety then i would go for silver to make it less tapety

    Just checked in the bently mannual, there's three sensors on the housing, the one for the temp gauge is the one closest to the cylinder
  15. SankysVR6
    I think the sensonr for the temp needle is in the thermostat housing.

    Looking Gof fella

    Sorry Adam, but you will need to explain a bit more. do you mean theres only 5-6mm to fit the wheel to the hub. i.e. the center bore

    Its not a bad price but i think there will be Customs Tax to be added on as its coming from the US. Earwig- I think body shop would have used a rotary polisher which are quite dangerous in the worng hands But the PC is a bit more safer as it has random orbit and has a low speed to start with so you can use to it all. And i would suggest that people try in on scrap panels firs to get a feel for it. And as Jay say's some lessons in using it properly woudn't go a miss either. This guy will help you out in using it properly http://www.the-detailer.com/index.htm And will be holding a detailing day

    Hi Neopimp and welcome to the forum, Try doing a search for "Crack Pipe" as its known to breaking
  22. SankysVR6
    We know the engine dosen't have to come out, it's the gearbox that needs to come so you can get acess to the bottom chain

    Thanks guys for all your help. I think we can take it as a fact that it shoul be a minumum of 7cm. Just have to wait and see what the company comes out with. Other wise i will be organising a mini meet outside his place !amazed to show him the various windscreens on all our cars.
