  8. 2 things you can do fella. 1st jack the car up, Put some jump cables on the battery from reaching under. Then use your fob to unlock (only works if its a flat battery) 2nd get a 1m rule with a hole in the end. Tie some stiff wire onto the end (not string has to be stiff wire) Loop the wire though the hole. Hold the top of the door open, Holding the rule with one hand and the wire with the other. Push the rule down inside the window with the wire loop dragging inside the window untill it goes over the door pull pin. Pull wire tight. pull rule and open door

  17. follow the tube coming from the airbox to the inlet manifold.. Its the sencer/ plug just after the airbox. U will know what i mean when you see it
  18. VAG.com it mate, That will check all your sencers ect. Also a blocked exhaust could cause the same kind of problem from a build up of back presure Few things you can do that only take a few minutes Is it well serviced? Have a little mooch at your air filter make sure its not blocked up Also unplug your MAF... And go for alittle drive Failing that get it on VAG.com as its the easyest way to see if you got a cam senser down ect

  22. Id stick a 2nd hand box in if i could find one in a scrap yard or ebay... Hopfully that would sort if for £200 plus fitting Wouldn't dream of spending £1700 on a box. If you don't want to put a 2nd hand box in it then defo strip and break the car and buy another VR with your £1700.. should buy your self a real nice one and probaly see around £700-800 from scraping the auto One more option and the one id probaly take is to put a manual box in there 2nd hand obvs.. Wont be a strate swap tho. flywheel, clutch cable, gearlinkage would need to be changed aswell. Is there any reason you own a
