Ty. Look like I’m going to have to strip the boot out

I would not have thought of that, thank you.

Thank you. Yeah 2.0 TDI. So what do i need to be looking out for ?

Thanks for the replies, but how do i stop blinding people ? I think the solution is to use normal bulbs. Yep I am all up for that, however i am not sure if the headlamp units i have just purchased will allow me to convert back to run normal bulbs because of the ballast packs. Am i not thinking this...

Hi All i think that the water damage i suffered from has now made its way to the rear doors, as i now have issues with rear door locking. can anyone give me any information on the location of the wiring harness that feeds the rear doors and if there are any more connections under the carpets in the ...

Its A B5.5. Just had the boxes out that they came in and there is no mention of any bulb strength. Will it be on the bulb. ?

to be honest, i dont have a clue, i bought them from a chap on here, brand new in a box, ill try to find out lol. also the adjuster in the car doesn't work now either.

Hi All, ive fitted some new headlights on the old girl, they have HID's, problem is im getting flashed by other motorists constantly, presumably because the lights are too bright.

You did remove the smaller pipe first, the one that feeds the turbo ?

Howey, im not 100% but I cant see or feel anything wrong ? for the £50 its going to cost for the new part i'll try it, I can always return it if its not right.

It made no differen...

Cleaned the sensor up and no different.
I’ll try and get it booked in somewhere to have the codes read.

Delivered and fitted, sorry to report there has been absolutely no change. Any more ideas please. As in my first post, I need to drive the car over 2800rpm before it loses the chocked up feeling, then drives absolutely fine until the engine is turned off.

I am happy to take all your help, h...

Thank you, is it difficult to remove, I take it I need to remove egr and other sundries to get it off ?
