Golf mk6 / Re: Any ideas what this could be please?
« Last post by Norwichdaz on Today at 15:08 »Ah ok,
Shall I stick with trying these 2 new connectors/couplings 1st then of still.happening, pipes?
They seem hardish to find , when I find ones that look similar i get the "doesnt fit your car"
But also had that before on a part and worked fine but obvs I want to get proper pipes, starting to get rather annoying with the topping up, coolant smell etc lol

Golf mk7 / Re: What have you done to your MK 7 today ?
« Last post by joe6 on Today at 14:38 »Rear brakes usually cause problems first rather than front as discs do not get that much use normally and tend to get some rust and the auto brake wears the pads. Mine is 6 years old in June so will be making a careful check and change what is necessary before the service. Still enjoying mine after 5 years of ownership and no issues apart from needing a software update soon after buying to sort the stop/start error codes that kept appearing.

I've turned off all email notifications except for posts on the model specific mark 8 board. However I still get a highlighted posts email come in each week. I can't see where I can turn this off?
Any ideas folks? Ta.

Golf mk7 / Re: What have you done to your MK 7 today ?
« Last post by SPIKE_CS on Today at 10:50 »Standard oil service via my service plan and got a new battery fitted which will hopefully deal with the battery going low during the winter months. The service tech told me I will need new rear brake pads within the next 4,000 miles which will be the first replacement elements of the brakes. I did think the front discs would be first, but he said they will be OK for a while yet which is great news!
Car is also six years old today and still love it as much as a did when I got it nearly three years ago!

The right arrow is where the big drip came from the other day and the left arrow is where had a steady drip when got back from work today, unless because it hotter as was driving bit longer than normal

Golf mk4 / Radiator options
« Last post by Mr_Orange on 29 December 2025, 12:35 »Hi,
I'm looking for a replacement radiator. Yr2000 aum 1.8t that's had a map. Various part numbers flying around and discovered a potential thicker/deeper offering. The thicker factory one appears to be from vehicles on the platform with higher power output.
Can anyone please confirm compatible part numbers?
Thanks !
