Rod, I think some late Sports did get 312mm brakes. Bigger brake size was fitted due to heavier (B5.5) V5 and V6/ V6 TDI engines (front and rear brake balance). None of the 4 cylinder engines EVER had 312mm brakes. a mate of mine had a2001(y) 130 sport and it looked n untouched car and that had 312...

Any as long as you change it next time. I'd use plastic as fitted from the factory.

I wasn't suggesting treble up front and mid in rear, I mean't treble to the 4 tweeters and mid to the 4 lower door speakers and a sub in the boot. That's exactly what you were saying your post. Please read it again below. Why not just use a 3 way crossover? take a left right signal from the head un...

Why not just use a 3 way crossover? take a left right signal from the head unit and put it to a 3 way, set front speakers at treble, rear doors at mid and sub in boot or where ever, the sub signal will be pre amped from the head unit so make sure the sub can handle pre amp, or even better split the...

No, you only need carriers, discs and pads.

The only difference in grills could be harder plastic so more prone to breaking, but do the same job as genuine.

You need to log the boost to find out if it has been mapped.

Nothing, just stick to normal servicing.

You can do gearbox oil and cambelt earlier, but that's up to you. It's not gonna fall apart after 100k.

I replaced both mine with SKF, 20k miles later no problems

Proper ruined look

Breambo part number 09.8690.11

Nope, just move aircon pipe forward a bit (force it). It should fit fairly easy, you are not trying hard enough.

Ferry is cheaper plus you get 2hrs to have a rest . Eurotunnel is quicker, but more expensive.

I have got 17's on Audi with 225/50/17 tyres and it's more comfy than Passat on 205/55/16.

More rubber - more comfort. Works only on the cars lol

I found conti sport 2's very noisy ..really droned in car ..but great handling wet or dry ..rain experts very quiet but only average in dry or wet ...falken 914 ecorun so far seem great wet or dry and not noisy sent using my own fingers Yep, had them on my 17's they are good tyre. For sale in class...

I have recently fited some Toyo T1 Sports on the front of mine and am very impressed with the price and performance in dry and wet and they aren't noisy at all. Think The T1 Sport has replaced the T1-R which has a similar tread pattern to the F1 GSD3. Karl 16'' tyres is completely different. IMHO t...

I used unlock unit app on my phone. Cost £14 and worked on my S4.

yes, just remove seat base.

I have had mine for 5 years now and there is nothing on the market that I think would be a good replacement and would meet everything the Passat does Don't be so sceptic. I drove my Passat home (was parked at work for 3weeks) and doesn't drive as nice as Audi does or is as comfy. In the end of the ...

It will fit, but I check load weights. If it's coming from similar engined car it will be fine.

It will fit mate, same suspension setup 1998-2005, only some balljoint size differences.
