  1. all prices listed are genuine vag and are plus vat. it works out cheaper to buy a recon one or secondhand.

  3. and the difference is? still not solved the problem though..
  4. Hi guys, help please if u will.... I have a 95 vr6. I have recently topped up the power steering bottle 2wice in the past month, both times with 750ml of fluid or to the fill level. I cannot find a leak, nor any wet/seep marks. Does anyone know where the fluild is going? and how do i rectify this problem? thanks, tony
  5. do they remove the windscreen? if yes, how and what happens if they break it?
  6. jay, check ur wiring.. on the top of the pump. in the tank there is a mechanism that tells the gauge how full the tank is. check wires on this. check fuse under dash. and check wires under dash. i'll post which ones later on. tony.
  7. i agree with mike.. I prefer the first idea u had with the exhaust.. the way uve done it, looks overly massive and hangs down too low. Personally i'd have a rethink. Lovin what u done to the rest of the car though. tony.
  8. Firefox.. latest version. It seems to get slower and slower each page click and load..
  9. i@m finding that the pages are taking at least 3mins to load and some don't load after 10mins.. only on this site.. all other websites work fine. Any ideas???
  10. great.. cheers for that kev.. you nearby by any chance?? ;-) tony.
  11. i put both next to each other and were the same lenght. I was thinkin.. the guy doin the tracking put the steering wheel 'straight'.. but i recon the wheel was out by a few teeth.. maybe if we turn the wheel slightly and re'align it then it mightmake a difference?. tony.
  12. i'm over near dartford tunnel.. i've got the nuber of a place.. but i can't see whats wrong.. or why it could be.. it's just dead odd..
  13. HI guys.. I replaced my steering rack at the weekend as the track rod was loose.. save any messin, replace the whole rack and ends.. Anyway.. Took it to kwik fit to get it aligned, it was out +14 on passenger side and +4 on drivers side.. I expected something like that.. But......... When he tried to adjust it, the drivers side would only do 2 turns of thread before being right at the end of the thread. he adjusted the pass side ok.. but that was near the end. when i say 'end' i mean the end of the thread closest to the engine, not the wheel.. if u get me.. So he told me i have to take the c
  14. Thanks to Kim at Chris Knott, my wifes renewal premium went from £580.. down to £390.. had various quotes around the £420 mark.. gave CK a try and have smashed it.! Thats for the higly modified pink vr6 that we have. Thanks guys! tony.
  15. Can u run ur car without turbo for a while with the spacer in, will this affect performance n/a?
  16. I was down our local Veedub place earlier this week questioning the same thing.. They said that i should remover the original lifters and check the tolerances..tolerances are very tight.. and nothing much wears. if they were worn, replace them, if they not worn they'll be fine. Worn buckets come from crappy servicing. The buckets can be bought seperatly. £9.20ea Just me tuppence. tony.
  17. [url=]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Garrett-Turbo-GT3582R-aka-GT35R-aka-GT35-40R_W0QQitemZ170353129922QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item27a9d679c2 Check out the above link to see what types of turbo housings u can get.. They cater for any taste.. ;-)
  18. probably silver/aluminium clolour with veryminute lines in it where the cutter that made them cut.. if they were cheap halfords wheels that were painted when u bought them. If they are originally silver then u will just get silver/aluminium. if u don't have any protection onthem.. paint/laquer, they will furr up with oxidation in no time.
  19. Hi guys.. I have a problem with my O/S lights.. When i turned on my lights today, i noticed that the rear and front sidelights weren't on.. i checked the bulbs, all fine, checked the fuse.. it had blown.. so i replaced the fuse.. SMOULDER..SMOKE...POP.. the wire from the headlight switch through the fusebox up to the large twist connector on the front of the car above the rad burnt up.. i just spent 3 hrs taking the car apart to find no problems at all.. apart from the burnt wire of course.. Can any try and shed some light on this? cheers for ur help. tony.
  20. or a knackered earth.. sometimes earths look ok but fail down the line somewhere.. Changing my earths to the block has cured numerous ills for me in all but 2 of my 8(previous) cars.
