Re: Best way to hard wire a tom tom??

So did u wire the new 12v socket to the fuse box or existing cig lighter??

If its to the existing cig lighter was it done behind the existing cig lighter?

Am I right in thinking the fuse box is on the drivers side of the dash? And that why it was wired direct?

Re: Varied B6 Saloon questions

Hi

I serviced my cr tdi with quantum oil from the vw dealers and I thought it was reasonable... £35 or £40 for 5l

I think the the oil was quantum 5w30 for long service cars

Is there a different oil for cr tdi ?

Re: Juddering when idle

Thanks for the reply Adam

I have thought the glow plugs needed changing as it cranks a few times in the morning before it starts but the vw specialist I use just told me not to bother until I got a warning light??? But never linked the glow plugs to the juddering at idle
