Thanks guys, well I'm probably not going for 18" Rims, not sure what to go with on th 17", wanted to get a new set before Edition 38 but might be a little hard as I'm very fussy on what I want. Most likely deep dishes looking for a good deal as I don't have a huge amount of money available due to rebuilding my engine and holidays etc so the the fun will start today looking for a set, cheers! !lol

Hello, I nbought my car 3 months ago and it came with Koni adjustable suspension, it was dropped to 40mm and is like rock and very uncomfortable. I would like to raise it to improve the ride quality and was wondering how hard is it and is it worth adjusting the dampeners and how?? I am looking at raising it by around 10mm. Any help would be good cheers!

FOr Itunes, the boxes unticked will mean that they are not available on the Ipod, the songs that you want adding to the Ipod just tick them then connect the Ipod and it will update automatically.

As above sorry to here about your acident. I would consider getting the work done, find a decent garage (not VW) nearby and get them to look at it, there is a guy called Adrian who is breaking a VR6 and has all the front grill bumber, bonnet in excellent condition at good prices, email him on ads@aphex.co.uk as I can't aford to spend any more money on my motor (over 2k rebuilding my engine), good luck!

If you want some good advise speak to Storm developments s they specialise in VR6, took mine there to have a lot of work done and very good price and service. www.stormdevelopments.co.uk Good luck and I hope all works out! -
My timing chain went last week and cost me a fortune as the cylinder head went, head gasket had to be done and valves and tapets had to be replaced. As you look down on the engine on the right side if there is a rattle I would get it done ASAP. otherwie start saving. The job for the timing chain is long due to the gear box has to be removed. The company that did mine are based in Berkshire off Jun 11 of M4 called Storm Developments.

Does anybody know where I can get leather interior to replace the standard cloth for my VR6 please? :?

Welcome mate. I can't wait to get the car back i've only had the car 6 weeks and it's been in the garage for around 2 of those so it will be good to finally get the car running like it should. all I need to do now is replace the alloys as one has a dent in from the previous owner, the other is to look at a full respray not sure on colour yet and finall to ad leather and remove the current upholstery.

Just had to post about this company, what service, advise and price these guys now exactly everything about VR6's if anybody is looking for work and advise give these guys a call. I've had new head gasket, front wheel bearings, Air induction kit, Timing chain and tensioner, Power Front discs and pads and a whole load of advise on other things I am planning doing to my VR6 and got exceptional pricing compared to other garages in the area. Speak to Andy. http://www.stormdevelopments.co.uk/ Thought I would pass on to others! MT.
