clutch slave cylinder? i think.

in a way im glad im not the only one getting this problem,cant we just go back to the old ways,or see what its like with out the adverts on the top of page to see if it quickens up?wonder how many others are getting this problem?the site is better with the upgrade just slower.cant have it both ways i suppose?

water mixing with oil will give a white mayonaise apearance,if you do get head done or dont give your water system a good flush through and get rid of that blue collant and replace it with vw g12+ its pink in colour,much better on the engine,dont forget when your engines warm and under pressure the coolant level will be lower as its pressurised mate,a couple of members including myself have noticed the header tank throwing out a bit of water,ive replaced cap and still does it?someone said its the way the vw designed the system?so your not on your own with that one.

i had my chains and clutch done last year but i didnt do iy myself that cost me £800,i believe if your just taking the head of the gearbox dont need droping but you will have to hold the chains up while the heads of to stop it dropping of the spoket.get your compression test done as water leaks for many places,waterpump,thermo housing,coolant pipes,any trace of oil mixing with water?dip stick,filler cap?

right what the fcuk have i just done to my computer?family in bed and im still playing (with the computer!honest)tried to download from a google search ei6 download and it says it cant download as my computer already has a newer version already installed of what im trying to download?then i try logging on again and my computer wouldnt even find the site kept giving my a plain blue screen with done at the bottom of the page? had to do a system restore (this i do know how to do)to get back on here.i really dont know what im doing but thanks for all you help lads.

thanks for your quick replys guys but im not very computer minded! (maybe my kids will no what you mean?) im running windows xp. temp folder?? i clicked on tools at top of screen but didnt get options? sorry to sound so stupid on the computer subject.

since the upgrade on the here im having a real mare trying to get on it! takes ages to load up,constantly pauses for about 30 seconds everytime i click on any thing,if i move the mouse while its paused i get a full white screen then a blue one then after ive smoked 10 fags i get the page up!its winding me up as i love coming on here to help others and ask questions but as of late i dread looking on here and hope that next time i click on it might of sorted itself out?any others having this long paused problem?

how many present owners are likely to be on the insurance certificate? not alot i guess as most were fitted when the cars were about a year old wasnt they? i knew they wasnt a cat 1 or 2 as i went through all this with my insurance (adrian flux) when i bought the car.id like to get operation manaul and maybe get a new remote programed ive got a new uncoded remote but as there that old i dont think they can do it any more?

original vw keys dont have the red plug in them,only the after keys mate because the origanel are hollow black plastic these can be prised apart,if you did this you would prob see the chip?it looks like a grain of rice only black and with a couple of very small printed numbers on them,the after market keys are moulded solid plastit(coz there cheap)with a cut out in,this is were the chip is inserted into a little red holder and pushed in.

maindealers talking crap mate,i got a second spare key with chip a little while ago at a local key cutter,take your key and he will do a copy first then he plugs your original key in the coding machine,takes your key out and puts the new cut key in pushes a button (very technical stuff) and hey presto coded key! the only down side is it wont be a origanal vw key its normaly a plain black key with a little red plug in the side that holds the chip.cost about £15.00.

my hoses are soft untill the car been running for a bit and the pressure has built up then you cant sqeeze them together,i get a bit ot coolant come out of expansion bottle but only if its over filled it then finds its level and doesnt leak.as for the oil cooler it sits at the front of the engine its a square alloy unit with 2 small collant hoses going to it,there prone to leaking oil the seals go and drip oil down the front of the block,as for when they fail i dont know on that one mate what to look for.

mines the same as eat this.

just looked in the handbook for you and it says its the low brake pad warning indicator,so id get the front pads looked at asap,either that or one of the sensor wires has come unplugged mate,hope that helps and also welcome to the site.

nells,were are you finding the traces of water mixing with the oil?mines been showing a bit of mayo under the oil cap,ive had test done and nothing showing up?but im not getting the overheating problem.
