  1. I need to replace three ABS sensors on my 1995 Golf VR6. Both the rears and drivers side front. Is this a ball ache of a job? I understand doing the rears involves getting under the rear bench seat. Is this correct? Any clues as to how much if I took to a garage? Any advice gratefully received! :-)
  2. I agree this was a cracking race, worth the wait!
  3. Can't believe you got this for just a couple of hundred! Lovely motor mate.
  4. Hi all, When I first loaded the site this morning, Google Chrome threw up a malware warning page before allowing me into the site? Has anyone else had this? Dan
  5. I had to replace mine not long ago. I didn't do the work but I think it was fairly straightforward. Basically you drain the coolant, remove the airbox, undo the rear engine and exhaust mounts and jack the engine up 5-6 inches so you can unbolt and remove the pump without the inner arch blocking it. Fitting of new is just the reversal of this. My local independent garage did it for under £200.

  6. Pirelli? They look very similar to the p slots fitted to early MK2 GTI's
  7. Just wanted to post a thread to thank Bungy! He kindly offered me a VCDS scan and I went down to see him this morning. Not only did he spare me an hour and a half of his time but was REALLY helpful and was able to help get a better idea of what a problem with the VR might be. And when I offered a small cash token as thanks he refused it which I thought was bloody good of him! The scan threw up some ABS sensor issues and a problem with the carbon filter but otherwise was good. The engine is running clean and sweet and despite soon needing a good service was producing around 160-165bhp in stan
  8. Thanks looking forward to it! See you all there! Here's hoping for good weather.
  9. I'll be there for sure and will probably drag a couple along with me! :-)
