  1. Would that turn all the lights out? They did come on for 2 mins the other day but no joy since then.
  2. Hi everyone i recently picked up a MK3 VR and when driving it home in the dark no dash lights would come on. So ive checked the fuses (is it the same one that controls the interior light and clock?) and now just recently replaced the headlight switch but to no avail. Anybody got any ideas? Cheers Jay
  3. Not sure if it was on ebay got it through piston heads tho. Yea i replaced the interior had the cloth in when i bought it but drivers seat looked like someone had let 1000 cats sharpen their claws on it. Quite unusual colour more of a biscuit colour than cream but like you say nice to see a VR with a lighter coloured interior.
  4. Hi all i sold my B4 passat couple of weeks ago. I actually straight swapped it for this MK3 VR6. Everyone knows i have a weak spot for VR's Details: 1996 MK3 golf 2.8 VR6 OBDII Full electrics ABS Twin airbag with lower glovebox Power steering Cat 1 alarm K&N filter S/S exhaust 104k FSH De-arched and no bodykit Boot frenched and smoothed Front and rear bumper smoothed Black roof and bonnet Full cream heated leather Camo style headlining. Used to hate mk3's with a passion but now after driving one i really do quite like them. Really solid car and such a nice drive with the VR up front. S
  5. Theres the queensway which is pretty long and jus echoes its great!
  6. Yea been through a few tunnels in the VR doin 30 in 2nd then floorin it! what a sound!
  7. We have a meet up at bassetts pole last thurs of every month! next one is the 28th of aug! Everyone is welcome would be nice to see some VR's up there as mine is off the road and i miss the sound! Have to make do with a BM 325 now :-(
  8. Yea true but i was posting up my 24v build up at the time thats why i said it! No harm done lol. Yea mike did consider the R32 nearly bought one when i had this but i keep seeing R32's in mk2's now so fancied something different. People say there is a noise difference but will see as im gonna be running the same exhaust de cat and induction kit so i can give you a proper assesment!
  9. ingham hold your horses! Think you'll find its a 24v........
  10. Hi all not been on here for ages so thought id post up how the car looks now! Done quite a lot of changes to it but this is how it looked back in november! hope you like:
  11. Thankyou very much! Will get to work on it soon! :-d
  12. Hi mate i had this when i had to replace my coil spring on the front. is it lowered? check your top mounts on your susp and the bolt underneath the suspension cap (look under the bonnet at the susp. turret undo the bolt and take of the metal cap and check the tightness of the bolt thats on the damper thread you may need a pair of snipe nose pliers!) hope this helps stopped mine doing it! Also check if your coil spring is fractured it did on mine and thats when it started to pull!
  13. cheers for the help just wondering if normal paint would be able to cope with the heat? i would use plastic primer and plastisiser in the paint then a laquer would this be ok? cheers
  14. Hi all just wondering if i can use normal paint to colour code my engine cover? It is already done but its flaking off and the "VR6 DOHC" bit is still textured and i want it smooth. Any help appreciated jay
