I was just wondering if anyone on here is the owner of a red golf vr6 I used to have or has seen it about? reg number M935YSN vin number WVWZZZ1HZSW514822 I had it written off (cat C) in 2011 due to the handbrake failing and it rolling down a hill and through someone's garden wall, i'll post a pic lol. I just ran a check on the reg and it's had another 4 keepers after myself but it's currently SORN'd, for some reason I thought it would've just been broken for parts but I'm glad the beast is still alive. If you are the current owner give me a shout as I still have the spare key f

1.every time i pull away when the car is cold ther is a strange creaking/springy type sound coming from the front end. 2.a rubbing/whirring type sound which increases the more i accelerate.could this be a wheel bearing? i can't tell which corner it's coming from either. cheers in advance.

i'm having to top up my coolant from just below min level to max every 3 weeks after changing the aux water pump,crack pipe and all coolant hoses,i know it looks like somthing i've done but i honestly cant see any leeks anywhere! took it to the garage who did a pressure test on it and they can't find anything either*-) i've checked the oil filler cap for mayo too and it's clear so not the head gasket. i've also noticed that when i turn the key(to turn the electrics on,not start the engine) i can hear a slushing sound in the dash area but there is no water in the footwells so does that rule out

hmm.i take it the black ball has two hose connections on it then,i don't have a black ball,i have a green vw one with only one hose connection on it,which is connected to a relay. relay has 3 hose connection on it,1 to green ball,1 to vsr flap and 1 to vacuum feed which i've took from the fuel pressure regulator,the non-return valve i was on about is on the vacuum feed hose. i'm gonna just take car out for a blast and see what the score is.
