[Repainting tailgate]

I've just bought another tailgate for my golf. I need to respray it metallic blue, it is currently black. Does anyone recommend what paint I should use and how much I might need.

Thanks

[HELP, acceleration hesitation problem]

Thanks again guys,

I will try the coil pack tests as mentioned and clean the MAF.

IP how much and where from for another coilpack??

[HELP, acceleration hesitation problem]

Thanks guys,

I have changed the HT leads in the last 18months so I don't think its those.

How do I check the coil pack?

What about throttle body and MAF could it be either of those also??

[HELP, acceleration hesitation problem]

I have just forked out a fortune to fix the immediate problem of a stuck open injector. This is OK now but the car (OBD1) still has an intermitant problem of a dead spot at the bottom end of the rev range.

It still ticks over OK but when I accelerate the first 1000-2000 revs, the car hesitates then pulls. It does the same if I decellerate the accelerate again. It pauses then picks up.

Any ideas guys??

It really pi"£$%"es me off!!

[Which OBD cable]

I've just been stung to the tune of £220 to diagnose and cure a broken injector!!

I want to be able to diagnose myself. Which cable do I need for a '95 Golf VR6? Software is on its way. £4 on ebay.

Can the car be tweeked using this connector??

Thanks

[ELECTRIC WINDOW MOTOR OR REGULATOR?]

Both windows on my VR6 were broken when I bought it. The guy who I bought it off gave me new motors with the deal.

When I looked, both regulators (cable systems) were shot.

It is a common fault.

I bought two new regulators off ebay and fitted them. Its quite easy - takes about 30 minutes per side.

WARNING:- The after-market parts on ebay don't last very long, mine lasted 18months and both are broken again!! DOH!!

Cheers guys, will have a look at the Ford Galaxy PCV.

Thanks.

[Air-intake to rocker cover breather pipe]

The connection tube on the small check valve between the air-intake and rocker cover has broken on my car, I've tried GSF who don't stock them. Is there anywhere else I can try??

Thanks,

[Will tyres fit??]

I need to change my front tyres as they are worn. Will a set of 215-40-17's fit under the arches when the car is lowered by about 35mm?? The car has a set of 205-40-17's at the moment.

Cheers

Free BTTT!!

Can the tappets be adjusted with the head in place??

Thanks

[Cylinder Head/tappets]

I haven't changed the oil yet so I don't know whats in it.

Which oil do you recommend??

[Cylinder Head/tappets]

My Golf has got a tapping noise coming for the top of the engine when it has warmed up. I bought it from a mate who had the head refurb'ed. He said that the company that refurb'ed it had put the tappets back in the wrong order - hence the tapping noise.

Are the tappets adjustable and if so, can it be done with the head still on the car??

Thanks for any help.
