  1. I got one 3 years ago and it was about £125. I thought that was steep but 354 is insane, no way it costs them that much more to make. On the plus this means that my price updates must be correct lol
  2. I went for the full purple powerflex kit, I have oem new top mounts and AP coilovers which are known for keeping a nicer ride. I changed them as my originals were knackered. The change was immense, it didn't make the ride crashy much, in fact when going over bumps it feels like the car has a suppleness but tightness at the same time.
  3. Hmm that is the exact inc vat price on Etka.
  4. Too thin really, 10w40 is usually the cheapest grade of oil too
  5. Quantum Synta semi syn 10w40 Mobil Super 2000 semi syn 10w40 Shell Helix HX7 full syn 10w40 Castrol Magnatec semi syn 10w40 Millers Trident semi syn 10w40 Used all of these at one time, trident used to be called XSS, they are all the same, I just buy the cheapest at the time. Use a genuine filter, the oil does seem to stay cleaner for longer with a gen filter.
  6. If you want to give VW a ring to see what they say the p/n is 021 905 106 It could also confirm whether or not my price database updates are correct or not
  7. Very expensive and it will be a beru anyway
  8. nope, didnt catch a word of that.
  9. If its raining its worse job than doing anything else on the car, real PITA

  11. I had the same issue, as you can see this fixes it awesomely.
  12. Not sure how well the red will work in the headlight switch as the markers have green paint/dye on them, I tried on a dead switch to see if you can get it off and it just brings everything off so you have a clear smudge with no icon either.
  13. They're gonna sell them in England too you know
  14. I know you don't want to hear me bang on about iPad again but I've used all different tablets and they are the best, most stable, I'm not saying it because I'm a fanboi, I'm saying it because its true
  15. Any what? It's about offset as to where they sit in the arch
  16. I would change the oil first yea, 6L 10w40 semi syn VW spec 501.01 : 505.00 Halfords have 20% off Mobil atm http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=10151&storeId=10001&productId=256851&categoryId=165581&langId=-1
  17. You can make one easy enough using hockey pucks or billet and a high tensile bolt
  18. I'm running 7.5J et38 (iirc) with 205 tyres and don't run any spacers
  19. Is it from the right side where the plastic shroud that the HT leads clip in?
  20. I used payen from a motor factor and it was exactly the same quality as the VW ones, I think they are an OEM supplier too
