Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: chrisr103 on 13 September 2010, 18:47: Went a bit OCD with it yesterday,

Basically I was out with my Girlfriend doing the weekly shop & she had to get a Laminater for her Uni coursework, Anyway we got back home & I wanted to see how it worked so I ended up Laminating all my Invoices & service bills that came with the car, I then realised I couldnt fold them up so I went out & bought a nice Red A4 ring binder folder to keep them all in.

Means everything I buy for the car that I get an invoice for ill have to Laminate now :laugh:

So these ones use my normal wheel bolts?
Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: mikemk4gti on 24 September 2010, 19:36: yes, you get new bolts to fit the spacer to the hub then use your original bolts and locks to fit the wheel to the spacer. so no need to buy new longer locking bolts :wink:

Post by: chrisr103 on 26 September 2010, 17:30: Its still not as good as I would like it, The car had quite bad swirls in it from a car wash by the looks of it, All I did yesterday was quickly go over it with the Buffer using some 3M Finnese it on a soft pad & the some 3M Perfect it again on a soft pad & then some Autosmart Polish,

I only did it because I was bored & it was a spare of the moment thing, If I had planned on doing it I would have brought a few more bits home from work with me & given it a proper going over including sealing with some Carnuba wax ready for winter

Post by: chrisr103 on 27 October 2010, 19:08: It was Payday earlier this week & as usual the car needed some repairs (Was Hoping to start the Modding!)

When I Was driving the Temp gauge would drop from 90 so I thought it needed the temp sensor cahnging, Went to work & took the engine cover off to check what sensor I had & noticed this

(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c339/chris246/76759a52.jpg)

The car had been hesitant at just under 1500 rpm (perhaps this was the reason?)

Anyway rang TPS & they had one in stock, Got it delivered the same day along with some new Genuine Aero Wiper Blades & Green temp sensor, Fitted everything in my dinner break, But on the drive home the gauge was still dropping so then I knew it needed the thermostat doing, Ordered one from TPS yesterday along with 3 litres of G12 plus,

Changed the thermostat today (Bit of a pain with no room!) Drove home Tonight & the Gauge stayed bang on 90 :cool:

Since I had spent a bit on repair items this week I thought it was only fair ro get a little mod for it so another quick call to TPS & this morning I had something delivered

Post by: chrisr103 on 02 November 2010, 22:40: Oh dont worry ill be the customer from hell if its not right!

With working in the motor trade for a main dealers I get to hear the different ways in wich people complain about faults on their cars, I learnt quite quickly you dont get anywhere from ranting & raving,

The best way to get what you want is to build a rapour with the person your dealing with & get them on your side before getting into the main discussion of the problem

Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: chrisr103 on 02 November 2010, 22:50: The warranty guy was saying that he had never had seen 4 or 5 cases where it was the same & each of those had been resolved by VW, He then told me I would need to come back another day so he could check the depth of my paint & make sure it had never been painted,

On my second visit he proceded to check the depth, Firstly on the panel in question the reading was 160 microns, Once he saw this he said "its a bit thick that paint, I think its bee sprayed at some point"

But talking politely to him I persuaded him to check other parts of the car, Surprisingly they were 140 - 160 microns, With this he started to look at the seals on the boot, His conclusion was that it had not been repaired.

Told me it would probably be a waste to submit it to VW as they have become very funny lately & for me not to build my hopes up. I Carried on talking to him & slowly won him around & got him to submit the claim anyway & today got the call saying they will do it

No CH Reps

Do you have some CH reps?
Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: chrisr103 on 25 November 2010, 21:22: Nope, But didnt know it would need 20mm spacers either
Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: Grand Master Patch on 25 November 2010, 21:26: RC's are 7.5J,CH reps are 8J.
Assuming both are the offset the CH rep will have 6mm more clearance,you might get away with 15mm spacer if that's the case.
Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: chrisr103 on 25 November 2010, 21:28: Cheers for that, I do have a pair of 5mm spacers & a pair of 20mm spacers that I was going to fit the other week,

If I use the 20mm ones what would I be best off putting on the rear?
Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: Grand Master Patch on 25 November 2010, 21:34: Probably 25-30mm mate,before you jump the gun i'd trial fit the new calipers and discs and see what's what.
Title: Re: 25 Th Anniversary No 0672
Post by: chrisr103 on 25 November 2010, 22:14: Cheers for that Patch,

Just found this on another forum

Got these brakes on my car, just changed to LMs but my RCs needed a 10mm spacer. MIGHT have got away with 5mm but not 100% sure

So hopefully they will be on this weekend

Post by: chrisr103 on 27 November 2010, 16:46: Bit of an update from Today,

(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c339/chris246/DSC_1263.jpg)

(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c339/chris246/DSC_1264.jpg)

Got it up on the ramp & took wheels off to do a few things to it

looked like this once wheels were off

(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c339/chris246/DSC_1265.jpg)

Discs & pads were in good condition & loads of life in them still.

Did what I had to do & dropped it back onto the floor, This is how it sits now
