Hi, apologies for this not relating to my vr highline but to our 99 cabrio. I have two problems with the passenger door side and would appreciate help: 1. The passenger leccy window works from the drivers side but not the switch in the passenger door. It's Bern like this before I bought it a few years ago and is just an annoyance. 2. In the past couple of weeks the passenger door will open intermittently. The key goes in and twists the mech fine, you can hear central locking whirring, sometimes everything works, other times you can open from inside, others from the outside, or not at all. A

Ok, thanks for the advice, will get some VW ones and a free Saturday afternoon!

Hi I've been informed that the rear bump stops have gone on my VR6. Before I buy some from VW or GSF, is there any difference and is there a performance alternative? The rest of the car is thus far standard. Oh - and how easy are they to change? Thanks Paul

Ah found it - amp remote! Thanks

Hi I've just found I have one of these fitted to my car but the blue lead is not connected to anything. What should I connect this to? Thanks

Hi I have the same problem, but no solution yet. All I can say is that on my car it's not the dash insert or the fuel sender, so it must be a broken wire or bad earth? I've had the wires around the fuse box checked without any joy. If you get anywhere with it, please let me know. Paul

Thanks - will try thsi once I have the car which should hopefully be this weekend!

Hi I am looking at another Golf to add to the family (we already have a 96 Vr6 highline). this time its a 3.5 cabbie. there are a couple of electrical gremlins on it ad I wondered if you could help? 1 - the front passenger switch does not control the window, it can be from the passenger switch on the driver's door. - is this likely to be the switch that is faulty? 2 - Heated seats - the passenger seat won't switch off - what could cause this? - broken switch / relay/sensor? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi I've got a 96 Golf Highline and it came back from its service today with some advice notes. They include Front Discs and Pads Flexi hoses cracking Cat Bung Middle Section of Exhaust needs replacing rear caliper balance kit needed Can you help me with how much of this is easy to do / source parts or recommend upgrades over standard? Thanks Paul

Hi just to let you know, problem fixed. The alarm had a feed from the fusebox that was loose. This isolated the ignition power!

I have a wierd problme that has started this weekend. i went to start the car aftre an hour's break and it wouldn't work. When I say it wouldn't work, the lights worked, but nothing else. Turning teh key woudln't start, there were no lights in the dashboard, the cenral locking only worked on the key rather than the alarm remote. All fuses were intact. I replaced the ignition switch about wto montsh ago. Now, I popped the bonnet, turned the key in the ignition and hey presto, it worked! All fine until lunchtime today. Same problem, then I pop the bonnet andit starts again when I turn the key. W

Priceless!

Thanks guys, plenty of food for thought for me. Where do you get your anti roll bars, poly bushes etc?
