    Thanks for that mate just wanted to make sure , will have a look at my computer as well, thanks for the replies.............just done a ccleaner and it seems a bit quicker, maybe my two year old Dell wanting some tlc............. err it was my adblock plus which i forgot to turn off on this site which caused the slowness (such a silly billy)............. :-p

    It would probably help if i had a 2/4 post lift to do the job just got me little council garage some axle stands and a crawler board. I can tell you as well im no mechanic, i think it was kevhaywire that said the Milltek for the rado is poorly designed, i dont know what the tolerances are like compared to the golf, anyway had a final fiddle with it (so to speak) and it seems to be perfect now, still no garage bills though eh?...................

    Well in the end i took the exhaust off again refitted leaving the cat/stainless pipe joint dry and used one of the old clamps right next to the new clamp so just double clamped it as the cat pipe goes a long way into the stainless pipe, it has not moved even with all the wiggling refitting. Milltek exhaust are an absolute pig to fit it seems like not a lot of thought/effort went into designing these ive spent probably around six hours in total trying to get it right in the end i just did my best......time will tell if its good enough.........now trying to bleed all my brakes after putting good

    Yea makes sense just hope theres enough room so that when i slide it on it doesnt slide the bandage off. Stainless is so smooth have thought of roughing up the inside of the stainless pipe and using some exhaust paste, cos the silicone is just to slimey cos its the non setting formula, (maybe this is where i went wrong ?)...................cheers matey..........

    Mmm interesting didnt think of that, i wouldnt say it was loose exactly (even though i did) but i just cant get it to stop twisting.......... :S

    The problem i have is that when i fitted my cat back system the junction between the cat (mild rusty steel) and the straight (stainless) pipe, it seems to twist on this point and cant get a decent purchase. The cat maybe cos its rusted a bit seems a bit loose and however tight i do the clamp it still seems to twist i used some high temp silicone as recommended by Milltek, do you reckon i should try the joint dry? Or any other tricks i should try? any help would be appreciated Dale

    Would be N/S i think matey as the left right thing is from the drivers perspective when sitting in the car, but im sure someone else would confirm this is true................ :-p

    There is definately something wrong, diagnosing any fault is difficult at the best of times. The problems you face could be a 1001 things, start with the basics a service then go on from there. Maybe a more comprehensive description of your problems may be helpful........................ :-p

    tbh mate i think the storms are a bit overpriced bearing in mind you can buy a "normal" vr with leather anyway, as you say the condition and mileage are more important than a storm badge, and dare i say colour. Personally i wouldnt have chosen red but you can't have everything..........................im happy with mine as well................ :-p
  22. daleyboyVR6
    mmm unusual colour that one matey.............................. :-p

    Hertford tyres in dicker mill in hertford (funnily enough !)........his name is kev say you'll pay in pound notes and he'll sort you out cost me £80.................. :-p

    Never in a million years will you get it accurate (camber angle) you may get it within half a degree, do it roughly your self drive it for a couple of days then get it 4-wheel aligned. Even with the right tools it took my man about 25 mins to get it right.........................anything other than perfect and the handling will do very strange things..............i put mine about half way (height on the thread) and it was about a 70mm drop............ :-p
