  1. no it's like a switch so the alarm will sound if the bonnet is opened. If it's still in place it might look a bit like a solenoid. Mine is a 2cm cylimder of plastic sticking up vertivally
  2. booking is now open. There is also talk of leccy hook ups this year as well as portiloos
  3. dunno got euro break down included with car insurance
  4. i guess a poor air / fuel mixture could throw the o2 sensor and also cause knocking. But i'm no mechanic! Did your friend clear the codes?
  5. i got yearly policies last year which are still in force :-)
  6. 525 is O2 sensor voltage low 524 is knock sensor 1
  7. looks like it comes out from near you alarm. Could it be for a bonnet switch?
  8. thats normally why it's done. Order from their web site and postage is free although the spolier is £20. Either way far better than VW. Got mine a while ago. Not tried fitting it. Keeping it as a spare until I do something proper bad to the one that's on
  9. I'm going to drop you one off at the team south meet
  10. believe hvr6 got the last set in the country a while ago now
  11. same as post feb 93. Was a little hopefull for it to be otherwise i guess
  12. whats the deal for cars pre feb 1993?
  13. i thought you meant go and drive it. La source to les combes is sometimes open. I do agree that eau rouge has to be seen to be belived.
  14. and if you get them from rally design probably cheaper than an oem set. VW charge upto £70 a hose
  15. Told you the trek to Vince would be worth it. Can't see AMD having gone to such lenghts. Stretch of autobahn south of Prum is deristicted
  16. Friday is a club thing. Monday on the other hand in open. E195 for 4 20min sessions
  17. i was thinking about spa but there is a track day booked on good Friday
  18. Really! Now that does surprise me. P.s. did I receive a text about a day in August from you recently. ;-) My phone didn't recognise the number.
  19. Idling should only be a a problem on OBD1 models. OBD2 have a better idle control system. The weakest point of the HG seems to be just beside the airbox/MAF. Alot/most./all weep here a little but too much isn't a good sign. I own both a 16V and a VR and the VR is in a different league. So smooth yet so grunty. Doesn't feel like there is only 24 horses different. Oh and the VR roar :-) Never ignore a sign.
  20. 107K isn't hile milage ;-) Quantum Synta Silver from VW and maybe Eurocar Parts. GSF sell Fuchs which is the next best thing ( or identical depending on who you listen to). Semi Synthetic 10/40 IIRC
  21. couldn't agree more. Top pictures of the clubs cars. Knew you lot would do us proud.
  22. Not immediatly, it'll just be good to know how mapable the old girl will be if it ever comes to that.
  23. Mine is about due ( 24 days and counting ) and now I'm working Chris Knott will be my first port of call.
