Any links to the guides mentioned?

https://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=283174.0

The pics in the guide sub-linked within that topic are dead so I also used this Youtube vid just to get an idea of how to access (not full disassembly), bearing in mind that car's LHD so the wipers are mirrored meaning I could only get the right panel out.

Golf mk2 / MK2 GOLF GTI 16V STEEL COOLANT PIPE
« Last post by PhilWR on Today at 12:47 »
I am replacing the steel coolant pipe on my 1992 GTI 16V. It is a 1992 model with a KR engine. The part number for the pipe is: 027 121 065P. Can anyone advise if 027 121 065D will fit. They look the same? The suffix D part number model list includes the 8 valve engine?
If not any ideas where I can get one.
Thanks.

Golf mk8 / Re: Gti 8.5

eerily similar to issues with the missus' mk8, had steering wheel changed twice, something to do with the wiring and sensors, all issues gone now but that took like a year to resolve, apparently try and fail is VW's go-to method for these things

Golf mk8 / 8.5 Dashboard display
« Last post by valentino on Today at 08:35 »
I like to have a dashboard display without clutter. On mine i have chosen the circular rev counter and speedo with no display in the centres. How do you get the area between the two circles to just display maybe the speed or the date and time, as mine as you scroll through with the up arrow just shows info like average consumpton, average speed etc with just looks messy?
Thanks in advance

Golf mk7 / Re: KW Street Comfort Coilovers Review

KW have also just brought out a new kit - V3 comfort coilovers/V3 levelling where you can adjust bump and rebound - also allows you to keep stock ride height or even increase slightly - not sure how these compare to Street Comfort ? - there is a youtube video by Awsome Gti with a road test "KW V3 comfort coilovers

I watched the Awesome review, thanks for flagging. They look really a really nice kit, but I just having a tiny nagging issue with the guy from KW constantly saying the focus is on comfort and not really talking up the handling benefits. I believe it perfectly possible for a high quality suspension to deliver both comfort and handling, the KWs most probably do just that, but why don't they say it more clearly? Probably wouldn't stop me though.
