Yep right on cue as it has been for the last 4 months or so something else has decided that its not working any more and it needs fixing
This month its the aircon control unit underneath the battery :angry:
Still, its a job for Saturday :undecided:
Anyone else with this disease or is it just me? :sad:
-
I too have this "disease", this month was rear window, last month was passenger side window, month before it was charge pipe leak, month before that sunroof broke, which meant headliner removal, a bit*h of a job, etc. etc.
You know what they say,
"If you want something to do every weekend, buy a golf"
:grin: :grin: :grin:
-
aircon, is that all?.. i thought your car was broke for a minuite then...lol
-
mines less of a monthly disease and more of a plague.
The car goes wrong every week let alone every month! this time its the ARB's, CV joints and back axle bushes :smiley:
-
My car likes to save up faults to "surprise" me with :rolleyes:
-
aircon, is that all?.. i thought your car was broke for a minuite then...lol
it is
But i've just fixed it :lipsrsealed:
So much for VW checking the fuses - they didn't actually check to see the fuse powering was actually there!! :shocked: :shocked:
I remember a couple of weeks ago checking through the fuses as I kept blowing one or two when installing the boot handle electronics - I'd obviously removed it and didn't put it back....... :embarassed:
Will be getting ALL my money back tomorrow!!!! :evil:

My car seems to know when I am saving money to buy something which is not for the car. By the time I have the money together, something major happens with it and I have to use the money to fix it so what I wanted to spend the money on will have to wait. I'm still paying off the steering rack at the moment :sad:

:grin: :grin: :grin:
-
Payday...what's that?
-
Glad you sorted it :laugh:
Mine has been spot on though the rear axel bushes need doing i think.....
-
I've got Tax & MOT at the end of next month and she is not gonna pass first time due to emissions (got a 17545 error code). Coinsides nicely with my holiday to Mexico.... :rolleyes:

I've only got a fault code scanner, so cant do logs on her unless anyone in my area has a full Vag-com?

well only just got back in work and been saving up the list of things that need sorting, replace front suspension due to broken spring= new coilovers, Whilst changing suspension strut top mount needs replacing, whilst doing this also replace wishbone bushes due to them being split, so replace with superpro front wishbone kit, rear brakes need changing, front disc's need changing.
and to top it all off, its MOT time in June :-(
