VW Champion Alloys

Hi guys,

I've found a breaking willing to part with some vw champion alloys for £294 posted. Am I right in thinking I should bite his hand off for them?

How about brands? Are there any differences between them?

Wheel spacers

Hi there guys, Newbie with two questions in one post. I was hoping someone could help me in my quest to fit new alloys to my B5.5 saloon. I have purchased some A3 Sportback alloys (see pic for reference) and wondered what size spacers would be ideal? http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161110/c3cb70d6...

Light on dash

Hi guys,

This came on whilst I was driving to the bank today. Does anyone know what may be causing it?

Re: Central locking problemsolving.

So I have tried this! It has worked a couple of times! However, it is intermittent! Usually front and back on drivers side.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Central locking problemsolving.

Hi guys, Have a sizeable problem with my central locking. When I press the key fob only the drivers door locks and unlocks. I know that water ingress can be a problem, from looking on this forum and stuff. Any ideas on how to attempt to troubleshoot this problem? Where should I start looking? Thanks...

Seat problems

Hi guys!

Having problems with my front passenger seat. It refuses to move, back or forward. Has anyone had the same issue? It's a highline, with heated seats if that has any bearing on what the problem might be.

Thanks in advance,

Mikey

Re: Wind deflectors

So do that mean that you can't really roll the drivers window down without faffing?

Wind deflectors

Hi guys, Considering getting a set of wind deflectors from eBay for my b5.5 saloon. However, I think I saw a post about somebody having problems with the motors and such like; as a result of the added pressure on the glass. If anyone has them, if you could let me know how you've found them! [emoji1]...

Re: Need help with wheel fitment!

Thanks for the replies guy! Can you think of any OEM wheels that would fit? Don't really want to be spending out for aftermarket alloys and kinda prefer the "stock" look. Was originally looking at 17" but the local breakers had the 18s so thought I'd get some advice. @Gazwould Would a...
