    It could be a bit of oil leaking into the water system from a failing oil cooler jacket? its just above the oil filter housing and as they are alloy they deteriorate internally and can let oil in the water and visa versa, just a thought as this was pretty common on mk2`s and i have heard of it on vr6`s too, just have a visual check it may not be that but its cheaper than a head off job! if it is the head gasket you will start to see some more symptoms gradually untill it finally lets go, get it pressure checked at a garage to put your mind at ease it wont cost a lot

    23k for a 5 door highline, i was talking worth today though, vr6 is still an awesome little car pound for pound against a lot of more expensive machinery, mind i do remember fondly my Lhasa green mk1 gti whooping my my mates mk2 gti every time we went anywhere, just goes to show the build and engineering is always years ahead of its time on most vw`s, it took the japs long enough to catch up with the Germans when it comes to fast reliable small-ish cars didnt it!

    he he it was pretty even which is why it was fun! 18k vs 4k, the vr only really started opening the gap at top revs in 3rd, and i can assure you the mk5 driver was trying!! i know its a bigger engine but not by much and it goes to show you just coz its newer dont mean its better! people either under estimate the vr6 or just dont know what it is sometimes, most people i know are shocked when you tell them its a 2.8 engine, cant wait to get my R32 with the 4wd and another 60 bhp will be fun!! i have found the R32 i want i am just waiting to move house and i will have all the money!!! bloody soli

    Hey, just found out the mk5 Gti is pretty quick! well at least in the 1st to 3rd gear stakes, absolutely no chance after that against the vr and it was a mere dot in the mirror and getting smaller by 5th, i slowed down at 77mph :$ to let him pass , took him a while it got a smirk from him espacially as it was a 55 plate motor v a P reg!, all v dubbers together and all that

    that sounds like a plain old flat battery to me, have you proved the spare you used is a goodun? clifford alarms are notorious for causing flat batteries if left for a while, my boot light switch failed and caused mine to drain and that had the same symptoms

    dunno, women are such great drivers usually especially the ones on the school run in a 4x4 that cant see over the steering wheel or park, cant think why they would have special insurance? i wonder if the segregation will extend to white/black/asian/chinese only policys or maybe even a dedicated policy for people with a "david peckham" hair cut? the world is a strange place!!

    good pictures warren, i live about 25 mins from the hatch! always a good day out, and you always seem to drive like a looney on the way home!!!!

    some people have their own diagnostic leads, but vw shouldnt charge too much for a quick check anyway, it only throws out the codes for the fault, its probably just a faulty wheel sensor, i just had one of my rear ones done, it only cost about £50 to get fixed

    could be an immobiliser or ignition switch fault? check earth wires on the starter and in the engine bay, we have had a lot of rain lately!! have you had anything done to the car recently that has disturbed anything? i would get an auto elctrician out to test it mate, its no good guessing it can be too expensive when the fault maybe just a few pennies.

    I thought that was a good challenge! no need for simulated diving there! he got some of the ball didnt he?? thatcher needs to go on the next british lions rugby tour!! as the adage goes "they cant run without their legs and they certainly cant run without their heads!"
  16. purple highline monster
    heard some good reports about them, i would asume they will be pretty good from a brand thats been proven over the years in the vw scene

    post his reg on a doggers website!!

    ner heard of the clocks being linked to the transponder! i think he may be talking bollocks! newre golfs may have that set up? i would try a different set of clocks mate, it is possible to fry them by jump starting and maybe? a small amount of damge occured when you jumped it and it has just burnt something thats noe given up the ghost, this was a problem on mk1 nad 2 golfs on the rear of the clocks was a voltage regulator and blue printed circuit, these often failed as then burnt the tracks, i have never seen a mk3 set of clocks out but they are probably similar? try the cheapest option befor

    he he, i am sure Arsenal will draw another 6 or 7 bum teams and scrape it to the final; only to lose to proper oposition

    You done the right thing mate, the guy sounds like a knob!, i got road raged by a wrinkly old twat in a rover the other day!! claimed he had priority at a traffic calming, he didnt!! he was very aggitated but calmed down when i told him he was a dick head in the calmest voice you can imagine! and that he at no point ever will have right of way, whilst being the driver of a rover!! he was just a knob road captain, but there are some people who take things too far! always best to just drive off and ignore them really.

    maybe worth spraying some contact cleaner in the stalk switch as well, years of grime build up and sometimes stops the contacts working, if its not that or a fuse best check the motor is getting power, it could be a broken wire in the tailgate within one of the rubber boots you can see at the top of the hatch, very common problem on a mk1 mk2 and mk3, incidently the washer jet will always work as its powered by the pump at the front of the car in the engine bay, unless that pump goes too!

    the american name given to a GTI over there, F***ing Yanks! only someone who cant tell the difference between a British soldier and an Iraqi soldier would call a car a Rabbit!
