    I'm hearing it's a common problem. Will do some digging see what comes up. It's round my mate tonight drying out. Then it's getting the waterproof cover back on for safe keeping.

    I keep coming down to my car with the windows open. Seems during the night something is causing the electric windows to go down. Car is very wet inside that's to the rain. It's a mk3 golf vr6. Anyone else come across this problem? I did have the bonnet open (sitting on rest not on the latch). Closed that now so will monitor. This car is not used much, The battery has not gone flat starts fine.

    Took the car out this weekend kept it under 4000rpm new clutch feels good. Only another 400miles to bed it in. Forget how fast the bloody thing is even up to 4000k.

    Got rid of RAC and now have cover via Adrian Flux..RAC was £145 Adrian Flux £55 and they tow modified cars no issues..SO Green Flag, AA and RAC will not tow you home if your car is lowed. Nor will they tow you home for free,if they suspect your car as been through water..they will charge you so don't tell them!!!

    No idea previous owner put it in and it's the only bit if if paperwork missing. It was a techni clutch which get very bad reviews. Bought a sach performance one going in this Thursday. Got the whole kit.

    Mk3 VR6 running around 300 BHP...what does everyone recommend to put in. I bought it with a Techniclutch- carbon Kevlar clutch already inplace, and looking at the clutch its about as up-rated as my Y Fronts on a bad day.

    Such a nice car. Can't believe no one wants it

    Suspect I would had gone to his home if I was wearing them!! Will p ost up..need to get it on the rollers as well see what its actually kicking out.

    its due to it being too low..the RAC man said there was a risk of damage. Modified = anything that is not standard. RAC don't cover Nurburgring either. Insurance companies seems the way forward. RAC is around £150 per year for one car only. so moved to my trusty Volvo T5 and will cancel when it comes to renew..annoying as it renewed 2 weeks ago!!. Good news, someone if whipping my gear box out in the next couple weeks so hopefully get the VR6 fixed and back on the road before winter really sets in. Recovery guy said the same thing..normal tow truck would had got it on. Complaint form on its w

    Some may already know this, but I have had a lesson in not reading T&C's. Broke down in my VR6, RAC guy said we can tow you for £200 as its modified it will need a special tow truck, hence the charge. Its in our T&C's, modified cars are not covered and it is in their General section, point 13. So if you have RAC and have a modified car you might want to check with them, see if it is covered. Or be expected to cover the Tow home. Remember its your responsibility to review the T&C's.

    Is there an inspection point or does the box need to come off. I'm no mechanic but have friend who can help. Also if it's a fork what does that mean I need to replace the whole clutch or something else as its a uprated clutch. If anyone lives near me fordingbridge and wants to make some money they are more than welcome to come tell me what's wrong :-).

    Ok it already has arp bolts so maybe it's something different I was dropping to 5 to 4th and it was a full beans.

    Broke down today. RAC man said gearbox has gone. Gear linkage is fine. Clutch pedal has pressure. When you put in gear and lift off nothing happens. Also anyone know anywhere that does uprated boxes for mk3 VR6's? Or what my options are? It's running around 300bhp so is not standard. Or am I better to go for a rebuild?
  21. was_ser
    Not sure need to get it on the rollers to find out. But it feels quick (enough)
