UKPassats

I got my radio code (albeit ford now) from ebay,I just gave them the codes from the side of the radio and within 2 minutes I had my radio working!
Worth a look for 99p?

When I experienced this with my second passat and my Galaxy what I did was....if you can get the nut to the end of the bolt and smack the living $hit out of it (after soaking it in copious amounts of wd40 and the like)and eventually they came loose....I did have to cut one off because the end had cu...

Looking good with those wheels fitted,your dad has good taste

The last coilovers I had on that passat (no hubcaps pic above) were jom coilovers and were by far the best on that particular car,it drove nice on normal roads, felt planted on the motorway and surprisingly safe driving on roads like this. Plus you can always raise it if it is too low!? http://i259....

The other week my boss gifted me a private plate from my old hgv unit,just so happens that it has my families initials in it (not mine though )
Here it is on my old unit!

First let me congratulate you on getting a true bargain and secondly thank you for upsetting me by posting pictures of my old passat
I really miss that car
Should look good when you have finished because you have good taste in how you want the car to look ha ha!

Just keeps going,so I polished and waxed it as a little treat for giving me 0 $hite to deal with

New Aero wipers fitted yesterday,I must say that they have made a massive difference.....old ones were the wrong size and worn out and rusty too
...No wonder they have made a difference eh?

I know you will have emptied the fuel tank for the rebuild but brothers mate says empty the fuel every time you use it (if it ever starts)
You can put fuel back in original container but don't store it in your machine.

Swap for my super c max on coilovers?

Why not?

You can't convert from rhd to lhd or other way. That thing you pull only will straighten out the beam to stop dazzle oncoming drivers,so its ok to use overseas. It might be ok for mot, if you straight the beam, but it will depend pretty much from mot inspector. On my hella xenon ones i still can se...

Sits just nice that matey! Stereo should sound great with the new speakers %-( Can't help but think that the wheels would look nice anthracite or just a couple of shades darker than they are? Here's a photo shop of my old passat just to show what I mean http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/styli...

I have some 15mm H&R hubcentric spacers to sell (but no longer bolts unless I by some miracle can find them?)
P. M. Me at the weekend and I will see what I can dig up.
It would be a shame for you not to have your wheels fitted just because of a bit of tuck

Four wheel aligned today
Drives like a go kart now!

Coppaslip washed off and some fk anti seize added,also ended up buying two new rear arms as the bushes were worn-out,just going to get it 4 wheel aligned on Fri then leave it alone for a while unless some rims come along at the right price

Looking good matey
Can't wait to see it with the new wheels because I think the current ones are a little old school for your more modern car (just my opinion....not necessarily the law )
Still doesn't stop me from liking it!

Already have done matey! This is the picture from when I was still giddy about fitting them and before final adjustment ha ha

Sunday i fitted my full coilovers kit,all went well but I do need a new bush for one of the rear suspension arms. Here's the piccies! http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/stylin-passat/20160710_144032_zpsrjlj72or.jpg The front is around two inches higher now and in the second picture it's my dri...

Not the previously predicted update (try saying that out loud :D ) As my little brum brum has been running faultlessly for the last few months I decided to get the wheels off and clean up the insides and painted the calipers red....that's when I noticed that one of my front springs had snapped a coi...

If you look at the rear of the headlights there should be a metal clip and what I can only describe as a small metal ramp.....if you slide the clip over the ramp that should move the headlights aim to the correct side? It's a long time since I had mine so forgive me if I'm a little vague :-? Mine lo...

Still going strong!
Didn't realise that my new ride has 120 bhp no wonder it feels nippy,going to be getting a K&N air filter and maybe a sports exhaust as mine is looking a bit crusty and all for under £140!happy days.
Will keep you updated when this happens.

Or buy a ford galaxy

Done

My wife has just stuck some black tape on


O veR my eyEs

My fuel consumption is currently around 35 mpg, the handbrake questions I'm afraid I can't answer as I have no experience of it, today I had a little fettle with some satin black paint, originally grey http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/stylin-passat/20160530_171144_zpsdzke53iz.jpg then satin ...
