    ive noticed that my steering has started to feel a bit wooly recently , seems mnore vague and suffering with what seems to torque steer . ive changed both the bushes in the wishbone with powerflex items , recent ball joints also, what could be causing this ??

    only in complete standard guise , the vr has a slightly softer set up in comparison to the gti, soon as you change the shocks that soon changes things. Ive just bought a neuspeed 28mm rear anti roll bar for my vr , they are awesome .

    plugged my car into my mates v.a.g com earlier this eve as its been running like shit recently , stalls when warm and ticking over lumpy , it came up with 4 faults recognised . -vehicle voltage terminal 30 signal to small . -Idling speed regulation -throttle valve potentiometer-g69 , open /short circuit to earth -air mass metre -g70 short circuit to positive all i can gather from that is buggered air flow metre and throttle body . Can anyone shed anymore light on the codes and what i should do next ?

    time for some new coilovers me thinks, Supersports just dont cut it anymore, Ive been scouting the market finding whats available etc , ive read mixed reviews with the FK stuff. Im torn between the kw variant 2 kit and the koni kit , was hoping some of you guuys could shed some light on both products ? im also a little concerned that the konis lower the car by 60mm max, 60mm isnt a lot these days on a dub , so if you have any pics of mk 3s lowered on konis that would be excellent , all feed back welcome . Thanks.

    probably 2 hours each side cutting out foglights and plastic welding new bits in , about 5 hours of filler work , i didnt use hardly any but if you look at the little groove in the front bumper , the groove between the number plate and the fog light is bigger than the groove thatcontinues round towards the front wheel, i hope you understand what im getting at , So basically its just a case of building the larger groove up to match the smaller one .
  19. jonny6
    cut out the fog light recess , bought a cheap rear gti bumper ,cut out two sections to fit into where the foglights were , plastic weld them into position making sure the bumper groove lines up perfectly, fully plastic weld all the way around , sand down welds , skim with filler , high build primer it , paint .

    tapped into the bk of the headlights for indicators

    Decided to change to a vento front end, looks more aggressive imo , Bit more individual aswell , i also plastic welded over the fogs and indicators in front bumper , quick skim of filler and its good to go. Im really happy with the end result , Job is top notch, you would never know , save me $$$$ to
