i swapped the sensors over, and the fault changed to the right speed sensor.. so im assuming the left sensor is the problem.. is it worth my while trying to clean it up? or should i just replace the sensor? also i cant seem to find the bleed nipple on the abs pump.. where abouts should i be looking?

right cheers mate ill have a look in the morning, and ill let u know how get on cheers

is the pump below the coolant bottle?

na mate not changed pump, ive only put a induction kit, and new coolant bottle on...

ive scanned about 5 times tonight, once the abs hydraulic pump code came up, its not coming up now... is this the sort of thing i need to be replace? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-GOLF-MK3-VENTO-GTI-VR6-REAR-ABS-SENSOR-C481_W0QQitemZ190274945481QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item2c4d4541c9

right ive been out in the car, the brakes were fine for a few miles, then the brake pedal was really stiff, thats when the brakes lock up, when breaking hard... would a sensor cause all this?

i click auto scan, and after the abs code comes up "this functions requires vag com to be registered etc....." so i click on" clear all dtc" "professional grade interface required.

plugged my vag com in, but cant seem to clear codes...this is what came up..

it works out about £90 inc shipping mate, if you ask the seller to send item, marked as a gift, you don't get hit with tax.... the cheapest ive seen a manifold is £150... unless you can point me in the right direction of one cheaper?

cheers mate, do you think it will just bolt on, no modifications??

as above... im looking for a ss manifold for my vr, and i seen this on ebay usa, can anyone tell me if it will fit a mk3 vr uk spec? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390143043757&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT

just want to say thanks to everyone for there advice, and help... was getting a little bit worried last night, but now ive got a little bit more knowledge and understanding of my car etc... and all's good with the vr... im a happy boy... i can hopefully now start to get the car the way i want it... every day is a school day

got a new bottle and cap, put them on, topped up with more coolant, had the car out for over an hour and its not overheating, i let the car heat up to about 75... then i took it for a drive, nothing to fast... temp never went above 94, when driving pretty slow because of the snow, the temp was down at 86-88... parked the car up, let the car tick over for half an hour, never went above 90.... still only the 1 fan coming on... ive had no loss of water, all the heaters work.... seems to of fixed itself... it was about minus 4 yesterday, could the cold weather froze something???

does anyone know where to get these, im really wanting d90s but not wanting to pay the £150 for adapters...cheers
