Did it just suddenly do this or has it got like this gradually?

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Well, i'm not too sure, I had the car lowlovers in October (end of) and the guy who did it for me didnt adjust the brake bias valve so I spun it on a dual carrage way... Any how it has been off the road since until 2 weeks ago and I adjusted the valve last week.... and its since I did the valve...

I topped the fluid up and its still topped up so it cant be a leak...

You sure it's adjusted correctly?
Bleed the whole system and put some decent fluid in.

My 8v has always been like this since i had it.  I've put on goodrich hoses, a new master cylinder and changed the seals in the front calipers but that hasn't made a difference.  Obviously all the brake fluid was renewed. Just thought it was mk2 golfs to be honest.  Sounds like it isn't! :smiley:
