Update on this..... Within a few weeks, I noticed the product starting to fail.....the weather conditions have not been the best, lots of rain, flooding and the car has been driving in all conditions. The trim on the wing mirrors are still holding up, but first to go was the tyres and side skirts, t...

Not done too much with the car recently as I have been working and training too much but the MOT is due this month so had a look over the car to ensure it is ok.....The front passenger side headlight washer was leaking, bad enough would go through a bottle of screen wash in 2-3 days. Last March driv...

Only yesterday I was watching the video of your car on YouTube, liking the new alloys

I like sticker bombing, but it depends on the car tbh......sometimes i can suit the style and other times it just looks wrong.

What about automatics.....you need to apply the brake to ensure you do not roll into the car in front !!!!!

So as much as you might not like it sitting behind, im sure the person in front is grateful lol

As mentioned IPA is probably the best substitute.

Lookin much better

I have done a test/review of the recent release from Dodo Juice on the Leather kit. Check out the link and have a look as comparing to a few other products on the market.

Thanks

Speaking to Dom @ Edition38, I had mentioned i had not used tyromania (one of a few products i have not tried from the Dodo Juice range), the reason being I was soo used to using Swissvax Pneu and Gtechniq T1. I was more intrigued as to how it would work being a wax and not a water or silicon based ...

I guess some of the guys camping can tell us, but i didnt see anything on the Sunday apart from some lovely cars

Cannot see the link

I only went Sunday this year and loved it, great weather, great cars and great banter These are the pics i took from Sunday..including the showground, stands, campsite and car park https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.576446585745030.1073741851.116260085097018&type=1 If there is any issues ...

Can you wax over it or seal it ?

I have seen other Plasti-dipping and always wondered if there is anything you can do to make more hydrophobic as thats my only issue with it

But it certainly suits the look of the passat, good work

Next update as i wanted to do a few things with the car this week.... Well i installed the ipod controller (Alpine KCA-420i), removed the glove box and installed behind there with the lead coming out next to the ash tray from the iphone: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v681/Robtur/VW%20Passat%20Sy...

Not much to update but as edition is coming up soon thought would start to clean up the car a bit more....an todays task was the engine bay.... Cleaned it up with Meguiars APC and a Swissvax Detail Brush, and a Viking Long Reach Wheel Brush, cleaned the manifold heads with Megs Metal polish and 0000...

If you get dodo juice clearly menthol just use that as its contents is high in ipa

In all honesty its not that much, but for the cost of oil its probably cheaper to fix. In the pics it has been cleaned up a little so i could monitor how bad it is...

I have found this video which seems quite helpful

It's leaking oil from the passenger side of the engine, the link shows exactly where it's leading from
