Nice car mate.

I tried to do my track rod ends but they were seized on so it had to go to a garage in the end.  Remember once you've replaced them you need a wheel alignment doing.

cheers bob. did the track rod ends the other week, mine came off nice and easy for a change!found somewhere local with laser wheel alignment too as my mates garage couldnt do it.

Out of interest, where did you use for alignment?

[Carl!]

quick fit, one near the town centre of Barnsley on racecommon road.. theyve got laser alignment jobbie.

Water pump went wednesday! gutted as id had cambelt done about 8month ago so messed up not changing pump then so quite a dear mistake! Also had a flat so bought an eagle f1. Ive raised the car a bit to stop it rubbing on the drive shaft and at the back and and gave it a quick wash.
ive got bora vents to fit when I get round to looking at the wiring(looks harder than I expected)  and also waiting on a few net optic bits so I can go for the ali look around the stereo as my carbon fibre efforts are better than wood but not really doing it for me.

something cut a hole into I side of my right hand rear tyre so I've raised the car slightly,  a lot less scrape type noises going off now which is nice!

[Carl!]

I can't recommend these guys enough and the stage 1 map is essential, I joked and said I might put the gti badge back on now it feels like a gti. Top top lads and a top service.

bought some bora sport clocks without checking first and mines an immo3 and they are immo2, assumed id be right with mine looking a lot more dated
