There is a great pub just up the road from exeter services,can't remember the name but used to go there when I was a member of migweb.
Will try and find its name.
Sundays are best for me.

madrob6 and myself are in Barnstaple,maybe we should get a meet going?

yes it does mate,might help to remove the glovebox,only a couple of torx bolts.

tony

I drilled a hole just to the nearside of the aircon grommet mentioned above as my car has air con.This also comes out behind the glovebox,so it's easy to run the power cable to the rear of the car.I used 4 gauge and had no problems running it.

Thanks for the replies,will get hold of madrob6 as I think he has got vagcom and he's only down the road.

For a few weeks the osr door central locking hasn't worked and I noticed today that the electric window isn't working either.This makes me think that the two may be one fault.Is there anything I should check? Is there a common earth point for that door?

thanks
tony

it's not me

Whilst starting to fit my ice today I found a sticker in the spare wheel well,next to the main factory sticker.The sticker is from my local main dealer and has recall 40G3 written on it.Does anyone know what this recall is?
The car is a 99 1.8 estate.

thanks
tony

Anytime mate,give me a bell first.

Rob,you could always buy my golf!! tony That all depends on how much you want for it, and whether it's a GTI or not? the idea of the Polo was that I can pick one up for around £500 and it's cheap to maintain and uber cheap on insurance. yep it's a Gti mk3 8v 5 door,standard apart from a k&n in...

If it's a saloon then the answer is no,but if an estate then the answer is yes.

tony

Rob,found green panel filters for about £35 plus vat.Let me know if you find any cheaper.

tony

I don't go in there,every time I have they are rude or don't seem bothered to serve you,and the last exhaust I had done there was total c**p,not even joined together properly.
I'll have a look on the net,but not sure what make to get.

That's where I put the cold air feed to my pipercross kit, had a fun time trying to get it between all the hoses and the radiator though. was easy Rob,the pipe is 70mm and just fitted between all the gubbins down there,although I did move the lower horn slightly. Just need a panel filter,and I migh...

I don't think the sprins will be any good,the passat is a heavier car for a start.
Your car is both a 3B and a B5.

tony

Hello and welcome mate.

What's your location?

tony

The cold air feed arrived today,so fitted it to the airbox using a jubilee clip. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v25/tonysri/coam004.jpg Then I fed the pipe to the o/s lower grill in the bumper. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v25/tonysri/coam005.jpg This is as far as I got today,just need to se...

Feel free mate,btw I saw you earlier on the square,was in my carry van.

tony

I started my own version of the COAM mod today.I started with some black 67mm downpipe which I have fixed to the bottom part of the airbox.It's position took a while because I have angled it so the feed pipe will miss the a/c condenser.The reason I have added this pipe,rather than feed the air feed ...

Looking good there.
How much and where from if you don't mind me asking?

tony

Hello and welcome.
