    Not too sure, but would guess if I understand right, after pressing the alarm button you can work the windows with the door switch for about 30 seconds? If that's case, can't be the door switch. Maybe it's purely a glitch with the alarm system? Have you got a key to disable the alarm? What happens if you do that? Andy

    The wheels I guess would have a small amount of toe-in but not sure how much? Wouldn't be masses of it Ref the rest, garage should be able to tell you, but worth checking steering arms, wishbones etc that nothing is bent, esp. if tracking already checked

    Found the how to again. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3859031 What do you think? Its from the US but guess will be the same. Agree with the posts too that the guys sister looks pretty cute, if maybe a little young

    They'll want to know year, may be enough. Go VW, I bought one for my MK1 a while back, I think from GSF from memory and it cost more than from VW dealer. They're quite common parts as used across range of vehicles - think the MK1 switch is used on commercial vehicles too - maybe same for the MK3?

    Cant answer your question, but this was posted up the other day http://www.carbibles.com/tire_bible_pg2.html See page 2 about offset, may be some help? Andy

    I'd agree, as not structural
  11. Hairyarse
    Nice one! Thank you
  12. Hairyarse
    You're not the only one dale, I find this too so you're not going mad. Doesn't spoil the enjoyment though

    Thanks for the tips chaps, sounds easy to disconnect but would like to keep so will have a bash, at least no MOT issues

    I got a rust free tailgate yesterday to replace mine, (Cheers Mark ) but one thing I didn't consider is this one doesn't have the 3rd brake light fitted and mine does. Do I just leave it off? It looks like it's bonded to the window. If yes, do I just tape over the wires - will it affect the other brake lights and will it fail the MOT if I do this - not sure if illegal if factory fitted??? Any help appreciated Cheers Andy

    Found a guide on tinternet recently but lost it now, think would be comfy to have MK4 arm rest in the front but has anyone done the mod here/recommend it? Cheers Andy

    Looks spot on mate

    Good point. On my mk1 noticed after an oil change temps were much lower - worth changing and not too pricey

    Look forward to seeing your progress

    How did you get the look on the inlet? Nice thread, good progress, like the make-shift garage!!
  23. Hairyarse
    Like the red, reckon this could look pretty stunning
  24. Hairyarse
    Yeah, looked like it's popped up - think may buy a new one if noise not totally gone

    ...if it helps anyone....? Sorted mine this evening; Took wheel off (disconnected battery but for some reason still worried air bag would go off in my face! ) Not much dirt/shavings of plastic but think main culprit of the noise is the brass horn contact sticking out I greased this after giving everything a wipe down, then greased my ring (pardon the expression!) on the back of the steering wheel Not been for a drive yet but turning wheel it's much better, not 100% - think would have to replace that brass contact as it's worn flat. Oh and air bag didn't go off which is a relief
