    i swapped the sensors over, and the fault changed to the right speed sensor.. so im assuming the left sensor is the problem.. is it worth my while trying to clean it up? or should i just replace the sensor? also i cant seem to find the bleed nipple on the abs pump.. where abouts should i be looking?

    right ive been out in the car, the brakes were fine for a few miles, then the brake pedal was really stiff, thats when the brakes lock up, when breaking hard... would a sensor cause all this?

    i click auto scan, and after the abs code comes up "this functions requires vag com to be registered etc....." so i click on" clear all dtc" "professional grade interface required.

    it works out about £90 inc shipping mate, if you ask the seller to send item, marked as a gift, you don't get hit with tax.... the cheapest ive seen a manifold is £150... unless you can point me in the right direction of one cheaper?
  11. b16dev
    cheers mate, do you think it will just bolt on, no modifications??
  12. b16dev
    as above... im looking for a ss manifold for my vr, and i seen this on ebay usa, can anyone tell me if it will fit a mk3 vr uk spec? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390143043757&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT

    got a new bottle and cap, put them on, topped up with more coolant, had the car out for over an hour and its not overheating, i let the car heat up to about 75... then i took it for a drive, nothing to fast... temp never went above 94, when driving pretty slow because of the snow, the temp was down at 86-88... parked the car up, let the car tick over for half an hour, never went above 90.... still only the 1 fan coming on... ive had no loss of water, all the heaters work.... seems to of fixed itself... it was about minus 4 yesterday, could the cold weather froze something???
  15. b16dev
    does anyone know where to get these, im really wanting d90s but not wanting to pay the £150 for adapters...cheers

    where is the best place to find one of these belts? what are they called as ive tried searching the net, with not much joy...
  17. b16dev
    yeah i could do with some help on this to, wheres the best place to get a new belt?
  18. b16dev
    its blue, here the thing though... i bought a new cap when i changed the water pump... but i noticed that the it was hard to tighten unscrew when cold, so i bought a new one, which i changed over, but after the overheating, the black rubber seal around the header came of, so i put the old header on... so im thinking ill just get a new bottle to put my mind at rest... thanks for ur help..
  19. b16dev
    right so im goin to need a new header tank and cap... and will i need new fans???
  20. b16dev
    right thanks very much for ur help guys... discovered a 5amp fuse blown under the header tank,which ive replace can see any belt... is it fairly obvious? the car was at 90 degrees and ive noticed coolant is coming out of the over flow on the header already??? what would be my next step?
  21. b16dev
    where would the belt be? the aux belt is still there.. not snapped, all were hot leading to the thermostat.. should both the fans come on together??
  22. b16dev
    no i just removed one at a time... the yellow one is controlling the fan thats working.... i dont know what the blue plug is for.. im just assuming its for the other fan???
  23. b16dev
    i drove my car home today, when the temp started rising to max of 110.. i nursed the car home, popped the bonnet, and steam was coming out of the header tank, i noticed that only one of the fans was running... should both them be?? i pulled the yellow plug of the thermostat and the fan switched off, put it back on,,, and the fan came on again.. then i removed the blue plug next to the yellow one.. and replaced it.. nothing happened.. is this plug for the other fan??? i filled up with more coolant took for a drive.. same thing happened.. i replaced the water pump last week have done 200 miles
  24. b16dev
    thought that was going to be the case... the nearest gsf is in glasgow.. thats about an hour and a half drive.. do u think vw will stock these?
  25. b16dev
