im looking to repaint the leather(black) in my car, was wondering what products people have used and would recommend,thanks

Mines a tdi with speedo cable,was originally a td so must be using original clocks and cable

Yes got everything out of a Vr6 just in the process of retro fitting to my tdi.

Got climate aircon and 2 wires go to 37 + 39 on ecu.I haven't got an aircon ecu as standard what do these connection do and will I need to fit ecu from aircon car.

It must be no 4 but I couldn't find it as wires dissappear through bulk head in main harness and didn't have time to strip back harness to track wires but been in contact with owner so hopefully he can find it.
Thanks for help.

once its up and running ill let you know

picked up climatronic today but think i missed a sensor, the blue&green wires dissapear into r/h bulkhead with main loom but i did find sensor any body know where that sensor is.
thanks

If the arm won't move sounds like the lock mechanism at bottom is siezed and the only way to access it is to remove plastic panel but you're going to scrap the panel trying to remove it. Have you unclipped arm from key barrel end and tried to pull it as it might be the barrel end is jammed causing t...

Lock seized or actuator arm failing to work, you will need to either prise inner plastic cover off enough to gain access to actuator arm and pull it manually or drill hole in plastic cover to again get access to actuator so you can open boot.

Cheers fonz I knew you'd know.

ill try it when i fit new bearings, but surely with the full weight of the car on the shock it should give enough pressure to force shock up into correct position to allow tightening of nut

is this the correct assembly order as my top nut comes loose and as a result failed mot, also top bearings have worn, it seems as there is not enough thread coming through top mount to fully lock down the top nut

if its on the a38 near lichfield its very flat there.

this is her now

the b4 with checked bonnet and pink rims didnt get broke, ive had it for 5yrs, got it from mark the guy who did the fancy paintwork and i got him to remove bonnet and paint another one in standard colour and also got him to graphite grey the wheels before i took it.

going through insurance they will write it off, by the time the insurance approved repairers have put in their sky high quote for a new bumper and rear panel it,ll probably come out to over £700 and insurers only repair up to 66% of car value so unless you got agreed value i think you may end up wi...

classic insurance is only for over 25,s and car will need to garaged overnight and also limited mileage as i looked into it ,met the over 25 rule no probs, unfortunately failed garage rule.

as its my weekender, well at the moment its my daily, im keeping it as its just so much fun to drive and yes the colour and wheels do get a lot of positive comments from people.just got to find someone who will fit the mohair roof skin without charging silly money.

cheapest option would be to get hold of inner lights and remove lens and cut to shape and then use b3 tailgate plastic tub for fixing to, got to be worth a try and would be much easier to get parts.

try polish ebay also as theyre mad on b3/4

im sure ive got a set, ill check in week and let you know

yeah i did see it up on ebay over a year ago in southampton, but its only had 4 previous owners so not been in that many hands.

roof is always down as being folically challenged i dont need to worry about it messing my barnet up

i know its not a passat but as my b4 is getting sorted for upcoming mot i treated myself to this little beauty,hope you like http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af223/red_shed/006.jpg http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af223/red_shed/005.jpg http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af223/red_shed/001.jp...

can you not try and remove plastic front grill and get access that way, cheaper to replace grill if you damage it than damage the bonnet.the grill is only held in by 3 lugs at top and 2 pegs at bottom iirc
