Is this any use ?

What's the correct position for their alignment? I assume the old ones will be in their correct location, but just incase? The bushes have a thicker bit of rubber as you look at them (if you see one you will know what I mean) this thicker part aligns with the trailing arm - the outer bush, thicker ...

Ahh i did see them from euro but disregarded them as they looked so different. I appreciate all the help, will i need the use of a press to put them in? The ones in your link look like front subframe bushes - the ones in my link are the rear axle pivot bushes, I made a bush puller out of some threa...

These are the ones you need x4 - there are two each side, I have replaced mine & they don't just push in or out, they need to be pulled - also they have to be aligned the right way round as you fit them http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/REAR-AXLE-BUSH-PA2-81-88-VW-PASSAT-MK2-HATCHBACK-80-88-HATCHBACK-EQ...

Hi Benntenn Done a little research and evidently the part number is 113955975B which seems to indicate that its just a bog standard T-piece connector and not a valve :???: Cheers Karl Hi Karl - the P/N I have is MLO 281 955 187 made by Hella in Germany & has the VW Audi stamp on it - it's a rou...

There is a 1 way valve in the system - well I say one way but it looks like a T piece - this has a direction arrow on it worth checking you have fitted it right

This lad had a spares car - worth asking - viewtopic.php?f=6&t=40918&start=25

Does anyone know of any 5 cylinder santanas forsale at the moment? In Silver and auto would be perfect,not holding my breath though.I used to have a Nissan built santana when I was living in NZ,brilliant car. I have a Passat saloon that I may part with - It's not a Santana or a 5 cylinder just a 1....

Nice GL5 in a nice colour - the seat material used for the GL is quite hard wearing & will scrub up well with a wet vac

Saw in another thread that your fuel lines have a leak ? try these for fuel pipe & fittings, unions etc

Replace the fuse in the fusebox (behind glovebox) even if it looks ok - the radio might also have a small fuse usually at the rear where the connector plugs in

Thats the 1st 2dr I've seen too - looks very nice but the roof line seems odd after the B post ??? car is a credit to you though

yep, that's what I'm hunting for, the whole RHD GL5 pedal setup. TBH, the reservoir setup I could manage to build up from other parts if I needed to, it;s the pedal assembly and the clutch master cylinder sub-assembly I need. All as per the image above :) I can't help you with the parts you need bu...

The RHD GL5 had a separate hydraulic circuit for the clutch - LHD had a combined brake/clutch hydraulics reservoir

Etka seems to agree with me. D

I thought the facelift was 85-88 ??

???? the black on the bonnet is a plastic trim fitted to the late b2's as part of the face lift

I think headlights are the same but fog lights are different, early ones had a taper to them where they meet the grill

There are two bushes on the inner ends of the steering arms, where the arms link to the rack - inspect these 1st before condemning the rack - another possible is the front doors bottom hinge pin (believe it or not) have know a worn one of these to cause a knock before

Cheap & safe bumper revival, peanut butter,linseed oil & the cheapest of all ..... old engine oil I noticed the GL seat cover & fuel inj The GL is nicer & harder wearing material than the lower spec trim

Hi & welcome - What do you get for your money with the 'trend' ?? I think you will be busy with the T CUT LOL - any interior pics ?? cheers

....The plastic check straps have broke on mine, so you have to hold it with one hand as you open it, otherwise all the contents get tipped out into the passenger footwell not much help to your question I know

The higher spec passats had center consoles - the GL5 has a large oddments space in the console (optional Fischer C Box Cassette holder)

I got some for my Hatchback from here - very easy to deal with & can use paypal

How about fitting double din in the center console & fit aux gauges in the slot where radio once was - would be easier & tidier than moving heater controls perhaps
