  1. Thanks for the replys guys, but the thing i didnt make clear before is the exhaust is louder at the end of the tailpipe. I cant hear or see any leaks along the system. Is it likely its still just a really small hole in the exhaust or could it be summit else? Btw the vibration is bad at idle and acceleration but when engine braking it goes completly
  2. driving along the a46 today at a healthy ton, the vr all of a sudden sounded different. it got a deeper note from the exhaust naturally i slowed down a bit but nothing else seemed wrong as i tried to accelerate again it feels low on power and when im stopped at lights etc. i can feel the steering wheel vibrating. bit worried cuz im workin 7 days a week at the mo so cant really get to a garage. any1 got any good ideas what this might be?
  3. best race ever yesterday, sum one has to stop vettel tho he's starting to annoy me.
  4. just trying to remove the aircon on my vr got the condensor off, got a new non aircon belt from gsf went to fit it and it's longer than the original. thats not right is it? and how does the new belt route is it the same just missing out the air-con any info appreciated cheers guys
  5. If anyone else has this i found these really usefull http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/5-piece-bolt-grip-set
  6. don't know how good they are but JOM do stupidly cheap coilovers
  7. just sprayed and fitted two new front wings so definatly don't want to be doing that, I used 15psi worked fine.
  8. definatley I might do the brakes with it next, the fluid I got out the clutch looked like treacle so probly for the best.
  9. try autosurgery on lockhurst lane in coventry just had two new wings and both rear quaters sprayed on my vr good price and good finish http://www.autosurgery.co.uk/
  10. the eazi bleed works a treat costs £20 from halfords if your havin trouble bleeding yours then I definatley recomend it
  11. Got an easy bleed now that uses pressure from the spare tyre, hope that fixs it.
  12. okay guys, just tried to bleed my clutch it was working alright except the pedal didn't always return to the top of it's travel, I had a new slave cylinder and clutch about 6 months ago and was told that somtimes that that happens and it just needed rebleeding. But now i've tried to bleed the pedal only comes back up a couple of inches and i can't engage gears what have I done wrong? was using an visibleed with a 1 way valve on the end and getting missus to press pedal while I opened and closed the bleed nipple. Any ideas welcome tah.
  13. Cheers guys, now I just need sum good weather to fit them
  14. Just got some new headlights from gsf, but they take a different sidelight bulb than the standerd ones the main plug in the back of them fits and they look like they should fit in the car fine. Any idea's why this is and if it would cause a problem? Cheers
  15. Yeah definatley working, wondering if i've got an air leak in the rad what with the bit of steam an all. Does that sound reasonable?
  16. Got the same problem, tried bleeding it and more air seems to keep coming out. A little bit of steam came up from by the rad, but i'm not losing water. Also was told that once it's up to temp with the cap off to give it some revs to get the air moving round the system but all that did was make the coolant over flow. all I can hear in the car once i've turned the engine off is water rushing round the heater matrix. Any idea's cuz this is drivin me mad.
  17. Quick question lads, Which pin does the live wire go to on the aux water pump, the one nearer the front bumper or the one on the bulkhead side? Don't ask why I can't just plug it on like a normal person it's a long story!!!
  18. nice one I managed to drill a hole throu so shouldn't b a problem now, Thanks anyway.
  19. Bump, come on someone has to know the answer to this one. PLZ.
  20. Sorry guys looked around and can't find out what this is so gotta ask the question. where the two coolant pipes go trough the bulkhead into the heater matrix there's also a little pipe like a vacuum hose or summit. What is this pipe for because my new heater matrix didn't have a hole for it. Tah.
  21. As above on my vr6 the pipe from the heater matrix through the bulkhead has snapped on the engine bay side. just wondering if i've gotta change the whole matrix for this or is this a seperate part. Really don't wanna take the dash out cheers guys.
  22. I'm up for this, missed me with the pm as well. Star city has to many speed bumps, we need a car friendly location.
  23. How could you tell? would the engine no. tell me?
