Grrrrrrrrrr!!!
So as most of you know i have planned to go away tomorrow evening for the weekend with my g/f.
Got the 16v all topped up on coolant and engine oil, wash and polished, hoovered, etc.
Took it out tonight and... BANG!! There goes my gearbox! :angry: :angry: :angry:
Gearbox oil sprayed everywhere under the bonnet and bits of metal hanging out of where you put the gearbox oil in :shocked: Strange thing is it still drives through the gears but accelerates like a kangeroo and the clutch slips! :cry:
Still i got the diesel golf to take but it is hardly a turn on turning up to the g/f's house all dressed up and in some cr@ppy old Diesel which has no heaters! Not impressed :angry: :cry:
-
gutted mate! unlucky!
at least you have another car to use I suppose :undecided:
-
sorry to hear that mate!!
i just replaced the p.a.s pump on mine
just over 100 pounds with belts from gsf :sick:
and i thought i had it bad.
-
Yeah i guess i can't complain about the Diesel because without that i would be fooked! :laugh:
That'll teach me for showing off in a delicate car :embarassed:
