    Mig on the lowest setting you can get away with, One tack at a time and cool with wet rag after each tack. space tacks as far away from each other as you can How ever tempted you get don't do more than one tack. just keep working round till its all sealed

    i suppose there are' date=' give the dull owners of mk3's an excuse to enter into conversation with other humans "scuse me mate, your car appears to be on fire" "nah its a mk3 mate, its suppose to do that" [/quote'] lol its happened to me all the time on the front with my old small 4 stud brakes, but that because us mk3 owners drive so hard Come on dude tell us whats upset you, has a VR pissed all over you and you've had panels peeling off your poorly made honda or saxo trying to keep up? Its not worth it mate writing off your car every time you want to go for a play... So what do you

    lol, his got even more time waste than i have Did you use a wind back tool when you had the calipers off? You say the pots moved out ok but did they return about 1mm after you released the brake? Sounds like seized calipers to me! mk4 ones are a good upgrade
  23. Phat VR6
    Most lightly isn't the release bearing, these tend to just colaps and then you have no clutch atall you might be able to buy release bearing separate and if you can do that and use the 100 mile old clutch (can't you just get the 100 mile old release bearing at the same time?) Only use a clutch than you know to be good, ie seen driving and not slipping, the 100 mile one should be fine the one in your garage all thought it might look to have loads of tread left on the friction side ive had the spring fingers fail on a pressure plate before causing it to look ok but not apply full pressure, I
