  1. My MK1 has been laid up for 18 months should start fine with a new battery ill just wind the engine over with a socket and bar to get the oil pressure up a bit before turning over with the key. That's what I did last time I laid it up for 2 years
  2. Go to page 4 the standard wheel and tyre size is 205/50/15 Difference in circumference:76.61mm or 4.33% So when your speedo reads 70mph, you're actually travelling at 73.03mph Near the bottom TYRE SIZE CALCULATOR http://www.carbibles.com/tyre_bible_pg4.html#ixzz2uMIifiV3
  3. Think that's the size for mk4 golfs as Marneus says 205/45/16 google tyre bible that gives all the info you need for tyre sizes and offsets
  4. I had a citroen bx 16v 160bhp no torque steer what so ever possibly due to the fact they had a mount for the longer drive shaft at the back offside of the engine
  5. Yes t3 is a bit small you need t3/4 hydrid to produce 390-400
  6. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Golf-MK3-GTI-VR6-Front-Wishbone-Bushes-in-Poly-Floflex-Sale-/281229359435?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item417a93794b
  7. Thicker oils are not necessarily better as the thicker oil could put more of a load on an already worn oil pump. Have you tried to flush the engine maybe something is sticking.

  16. No I think that is still the same but my astra has gone through an mot with out either of them
  17. Please use the other thread started on the same subject by the same person . Thanks
  18. If insurance companies paid what peoples cars are worth instead of trying to give scrap or trade value all the time maybe people wouldn't feel the need to get compensation. My partner got hit from behind while stationary they offered her £250 for her car of which she refused so they told her to get comparisons I looked on autotrader found 2 cars similar mileage and age and condition for just over £1000 but they said no and showed her a crappy white one that was up for £350 no history high mileage no comparison. They paid her £350 so she then claimed whiplash and got another £1700 and all becau
