    You sure the garage knows what the bearings are like to get off. The backs are easy but the fronts have to be pressed off.

    The droning does sound like a wheel bearing to me. Does the sound get worse when turning left or right this woud help you decide which bearing needs attention although its probably best to get them both done as if ones gone the other won't be far behind. It cost me £90 a side for mine. By the sounds of it your batteries been dead for a while so i'd invest in a new one and make sure its big enough.

    Have you got springs or coilover suspension? If springs then you can either upgrade to coilovers or get your arches rolled so they dont catch the arches. If you have coilies allready then rolling the arches is your only option, that or raise your suspension slightly.

    There all the same mate, I fitted my Vr's old shocks and springs to my mates Mk3 TDi as his were fudged.
  6. T0NYVR6
    Yes they would!

    Yep i'd go with the go and buy the right size allen key, and also make sure you have a bar you can slide over the end of it to use as leaverage as they can be a right pain to undo.

    No its definately the front offside sunroof drainage hole as I poured some water down it and watched it spill out from behind the dash.
  10. T0NYVR6
    Yes but if it was just blocked wouldn't the water not backup to the sunroof and spillover there and not behind my dash board? Guess I'll find out tomorrow! Thanks for the help.
  11. T0NYVR6
    Cheers Ben, is the a connecting pipe that runs from the sunroof drain down to the outlet in the door seem?
  12. T0NYVR6
    I know this is a common problem as I've searched through a few different posts. I was wondering how people tackled unblocking the drainage holes? I've pushed a thin piece of rod up the hole to free it off but this hasnt worked. If run water into the hole it comes out behind the dash in the passanger footwell. Is there a pipe that runs from the drainage hole down the front pillar and to the exit nipple as i'm wondering if this has fallen off or something. atb Tony.

    Have you got VAGCom to check diagnostics?
  22. T0NYVR6
    lol lexus lights, everyone had a real fad on those things. Bit like the audi style headlights everyone seems mad on now!
  23. T0NYVR6
    My old MK3 unfortunately I found out how to up the boost just using a few washers on the release valve and got carried away!
  24. T0NYVR6
    They'll just mask it up mate!
  25. T0NYVR6
    Dont think this would be cost effective mate, i'm no expert but I reckon it would be cheaper to get a 4 mo engine and fit that rather than all the bits youll need to do to adapt for the VR. But as I say I may be wrong.
