Thanks dude one job I can get done out of the way.

Jay

So scanned it today and cleared all codes (this is what came up) I'm going to scan it again in a few days see what comes back up.

Anyone able to help with these ones?.

Jay

Ok so I've been showing the old girl some love she's had coilovers, new wheels, cambelt, aux belt sorted but still needs more and I'm needing some help. It's a 1.8t '99 First issue, occasionally when first starting or sometimes idling she "hunts" not massively but I'd say 300rpm fluctuatio...

Yes guys it was a genuine thermostat as had read the posts on here, it comes up to temp pretty quickly which makes me doubt thermostat (also the fact it's pretty much brand new) but I guess I'll change it again.

Jay

Well finally got around to changing the temp sensor and it's better but still not sorted, temp is going up now but only to the first dash after the three bottom ones so well under the 90 degrees centre, any other ideas what I might need to look at?.

Jay

Thumbs up from me as I've got to add footwell lights

I have coil overs on a wagon and have a good chunk of audio in the boot and have had it loaded up for tip runs also had it five up with large adults without issue, ride is a bit bouncy at times but the only real issue is grounding over bumps as I have it sat pretty low

Guys I need to wire the illumination for my boost gauge which is sited above headlamp switch anyone know which colour wires I can tap into?

Jay

I've got the same problem with my fronts (bought second hand) I'm dosing them with plus gas every other day at the moment to see if it will help free them off before I have to buy new ones

Jay

So I'm about to buy the kit to retro fit which with the guide I'm reasonably confident I can get it sorted, I am however going to need it activated once fitted from what I read in the guide. Is there anyone near Grimsby who can activate it for me along with the window closure feature?

Jay

You pay for the skills they've learnt over years as well as the time, sure you can get it cheaper but I'm sure it'll be a worse job or take longer.

Jay

Better daytime shot, sadly need to raise her a little

Fitted new driveshaft after lunching the old one and then new wheels got fitted got to roll the arches tomorrow as its rubbing and I don't want to raise her unless I absolutely have to.

Jay

Got it on my 5s and not one issue at all

Jay

That's what I ordered mate 0.01's just waiting on new driveshaft to arrive so I can fit them hoping they'll be on today as mate is coming around with driveshaft.

Jay

Cheers guys back with the car tomorrow so will check then, appreciate the help

Jay

Cars not currently drivable having lunched a driveshaft and CV joint so can't do the obvious and slam the brakes on!, how can I tell whether my B5 wagon is ABS equipped or not?. I need to find out to get the new driveshaft ordered.

Jay

Quick question can I use my current alloy wheel bolts and locking bolt on these 3SDM's does anyone know?. I want to get them ordered if I need some!.

Jay

Ordered some shiny sparkly wheels :thumbs up:

Awesome thanks dude mines a wagon but that gives me a good idea. Hopefully they'll arrive Tuesday/Wednesday now I've ordered them.

Jay

Anyone have a pic of a B5 on 3SDM 0.01's?? I've looked on Google but not finding much to help looking for the polished face ones ideally. Or is anyone handy with photoshop?.

Jay

Reception on shark fins is shockingly bad don't bother!.

The standard aerial should do a more than good enough job so I'd imagine it's the adaptor that's the issue, having the amplified part not powered won't be helping for sure.

Jay

Thanks guys

Jay

Thanks for that, Mine looks a little different is it the plug sticking upright? Mine looks very sparse compared to other pictures I'm finding!.

Jay

Thanks, don't suppose there are any pictures of what I'm looking for back there?.
