This one, Suzuki owners, V-strom forum, Purbeck and districts m/c club, south coast bike club, I like my bikes! and Vr6.

Use quantum(?) sinta silver, VW and GSF sell it, about £17 a 5 litre bottle. The plug removal tool should be on the slam panel, right hand side. Doesn't look much, i nearly bought one on ebay till i realised i had one all along!!

I could see our old house with my wifes mini estate outside and my fiesta xr2i on the road- i was at work on the bike.

It'll sell whatever mate, i bought a tatty vr for £650 ! It goes fine, just looks a mess- but i can do it up. If you can be arsed you'll get better money overall by selling the extras seperatly.

Great news, nice feeling finding a new engine is only plugs after all.

Utter crap! Totally wasted a john cooper works 's' round castle coombe in my 'proper' mini( 1330, cammed,head,flywheel,ect ect ect :-p ) In modern terms an ok car, but take the mini badge off it :@

i was the same mate, never had a VW before. Put my xr2i on it's roof and ended up with a tatty high miler vr6. The xr2i was in good nick with low milage but the vr6 was in a different league! never go back now- get one, you won't be disappointed

finally got my tester back from a mate, so could test the supply at the head unit plug. i was surprised to find two perm feeds? so just linked out the perm and switched as i had before. the reason i posted here was i pulled the head unit out and it was warm? Thought it would need to be switched live as well? guess i'll just have to actually switch the head unit off before taking the face off now- at least i know now. Ta for the advise.

BT/telecoms,data/engineers are just sparkies that can't be trusted with dangerous volyages! :-p :-p

I'm a sparky- it's a good job. How old are you? you could get a job as an ' adult trainee' that pays about £8-10 an hour but you may have to pay for your college to 'show willing' to your employer. The whole construction industry is desperate for skilled tradesmen and the ways of getting qualifed are quite flexable( evenings/day release ect) Try contacting your local college for info, then maybe find a company to take you on. Decent sparks/fitters/plumbers/chippies earn about £500 a week take home quite easy- more is possible if you want to do the hours. stu.

Hi all, need to know a simple thing, What are the connections on the 'power' plug for the head unit? i've a jcv and when you plug it in it doesn't have a pernament feed *-) can someone tell me what each colour is or post up a diagram? Many thanks, i've got a manual but it doesn't show the head units connections :@ cheers,stu.

Roughly bung in about 45 litres and get about 250 miles to a tank. Never got near to putting 55 litres in it? ( supposed capacity)

Dunno about my chains, i've got a printout proving service history, but no paperwork saying whats been done. sounds ok though.....

Nice one rich. Looks a bit scruffy that VW garage LOL
