  1. taken it to the garage and it turns out to be the cv joint. thanks for the help guys.
  2. thanks for the ideas guys. going into the garage on tuesday. will let you know what they say. cheers
  3. thanks guys. Sorry if this sounds stupid (i'm no mechanic) but It does allow me to select gears with the clutch pedal engaged and the engine idling. If it was the clutch then would i still be able to do this?
  4. Could someone please offer some advice as to what the problem may be with my vr6. Whilst attempting to pull off in 1st gear, I released the clutch pedal only to hear a grinding and cracking noise resulting in no drive. The same occured in other gears including reverse. Could this possibly have something to do with the drive shafts or the diff. Having moved the car by pushing, there was no apparent debris left on the road. Havent had chance to get under it yet though. Any ideas would be welcomed. Cheers. Gareth
  5. thanks for the advice guys i drove the car today and the problem has stopped. car feels great today and throttle is very responsive. cant understand it really.if it happens again i will try the above procedures cheers again fellas
  6. Hi folks, i am experiencing problems with my vr6 (89k miles). For the past two days, when i apply the clutch (ie approaching red light) and the revs drop, the car sometimes cuts out. Also the idle revs are dipping to 400rpm and increasing past 1000rpm and the engine again cuts out. Any ideas of what the problem may be and/or advice on acure would be appriciated.

  9. cheers guys. i have decided to try a custon build system by Z-Ex exhausts on city road cardiff. will let you know my thoughts when the work is done. currently booked in for 6th feb. cheers
  10. very nice. starting to like red more and more!
  11. hi mate. lovely looking ride. i also removed my rear spoiler and was wondering what you used to fill the 3 holes in the glass. cheers
  12. Can anyone suggest a reputable supplier and fitter of supersprint or maybe jetex exhausts in south wales. If anyone would like to share their experience with me i would be greatful. I have not yet made any final decisions as to which exhaust system to get so any advice (with regard to price, workmanship, etc) would be great. Thanks for reading. Gareth
  13. I can just imagine sigorney weaver creeping through a deserted space station, and that thing jumping out on her! aaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhhh!! Oh the terror
  14. Spindat-Dub thanks for the pics. Looks great. Just spent the day fitting my G-Max 40vw25's using the Haynes manual and this guide http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?121162 which was very helpful indeed considering i have no experience in this at all. I suggest to anyone who plans to do this with manual hand tools to soak all nuts and bolts concerned with ample amounts of WD40 the night before you start. I also am running 17's (205/40/17) with a 40mm drop and I have not yet experienced any rubbing (early days though). Also very happy with the ride but will have the cam
  15. Hi MarkP. Could you please tell me where you got the bump stops and the top mounts from m8. Going to lower mine using the G-Max too but on 17's. Is anyone else running G-Max on 205/40/17's and if so are you happy with the setup. Also some pics would be nice too. Thanks for any help thank anyone can give.
  16. Cheers guys. yeah, its amazing what a set of lights and a front splitter can do for the looks. Hated the old front splitter so much it hurt ~ Here is a few snaps of how it looked two weeks ago. I'm a lot happier now Going to try and get myself to a few shows this year. I always wanted to when I had my mk2 gti but never did.
  17. Hi all. This is my VR6 8) . Had it 1 year and love it more each day lol!! recently purchased new wheels, hella cellus angel eyes, and clear indicators and fogs. Next job, FK highsports and spray rear spoiler. Let me know what you think. %-6 Peace.
