  1. Take it back to them and say OI WTF sort my door... should be easy to sort tho, slack the two bolts to the part of the lock thats bolted to the rear qwarter and more it in 5mm
  2. you got it prity much stop on fella, Personally id undo the 3 13mm that hold the ball joint in the wishbone and leave the ball joint attached to the hub knuckle, Its alot easier that way, Its the N/S rear one that needs the engine lifting, Al tho it doesn't need to be lifted a lot
  3. Has every VW dealer got a TPS inside it? I donno how to find my nearest one?
  4. fK wheel spacers are also rubbish, Don't fit over the hub properly and leaves about a 4mm gap between the spacer and the face of the hub :@ Im having to fit cheep crappy 6mm halfords spacer, then fk spacer ontop of that haha doesn't sound safe does it but the hub centric bit still fits inside the space so should be ok
  5. Even people that don't like cars still enjoy watching top gear, Its funny and generally interesting and just seems to work so much better
  6. Donno if its different for OBD1 but my OBD2 didn't have one, Or anywhere to mount it on the rear axal. If you think about it theres no need for a load sensing valve if you have ABS, 3 up in the back, wheel locks ABS senses this and then the abs pump controls the amount pressure need to the back, Pull the fuse and there's nothing regulating pressure to the back, If yours is OBD2 then the back WILL lock first To do it properly you can use your current VR master cylinder and use to T pieces to run diagonal split braking, Ie one out let gets split in the engine bay to run N/S/R and O/S/F...
  7. If your pulling fuse because you don't like ABS your back ends going to lock all the time before the fronts
  8. When you hold the clutch pedal down does it go away?
  9. you lucky fucker, Will be nice to see figures when its got some fuel to run on lol Can i be abit cheeky and ask how much it cost to do track days hear in UK. or any useful info about getting my mk3 on a track
  10. Pure dirty car tho, Love the cavalier 4 by 4 turbos, Dude at work has a 6 speed one, Its full of thing i wouldn't think they had even invented when it was built

    Window rubber?

    strange as the rubber is never really on the glass as you know, Rubbers in the door and the glass slides in it, Would be very surprised if you can't buy them separate, You can for the mk1 on there own but they anit cheep, Nearly £100 each iirc Sure the person that told you this know what there doing as it doesn't sound right to me atall, Try ringing a different dealer
  12. could be the level switch on top of the brake res cap, Make sure it still connected and the fuild is upto max
  13. search OBX diff on ebay and it come up strate away
  14. LOL guessing so.. ive just had a mooch, very interesting, my user name, phatvr6 :-d lol
  15. lol It does get cheaper dude, All declared on my 8v its £1100 im 22 3ync 6points, Don't even want to imagine what they will want once i get round to dropping the VR in.... Do you think Adrian Flux s the best people to talk to in my situation?
  16. found that plug and all is good there, Think its time to assume somthink else has broken as the same time
  17. filler on the front of the box about half way up, Its a big 17mm allen key thingy, Your going to find it hard to get this out tbf, Its also a oil level, On level ground fill till it starts to dribble out of the hole, so fill when its in, Personally id fit the cut with the box out, Id put what VW recommend as far a oil, You do need to reseal the shift tower, I use a black silicon the vaxhall sell for sealing sumps (free from work) sure vw sell the same stuff Alex thats the word i was looking for, preload :S thats the only bit im scared of as ive never done it before, How do you set thi
  18. you should be alright, Set of Allen key sockets 7 or 8mm can't remember. 13mm spanner, 15mm or 17mm spanner, Big screwdriver, Bracker bar is nice, Impact screw driver is nice for screw that holds disc on but you can just drill it out, not really needed, copper grease, jack and Axel stand
  19. Go to the parts desk at a VW dealer with your reg and they should be able to tell you
  20. Yep everything else works, Sounds promising ill have a look for it cheers,
  21. Alex what is the FSI? Guessing its a new type of injector and pump but how does it work and what its the advantages
