in regards the mouldy filter, they changed that on the last service, in regards to the hand licking, go out on the ale for 9 hours have a kebab and a chicken balti on the way home don't brush your teeth and in the morning lick your hand and thats what the blower in my gti smells like!!!!

The symptom/smell of a leaking matrix has  sometimes been described as a currylike smell   :tongue: but I can't see what the garage would have done on a service to cause a matrix to start leaking :undecided:

Does my arse look TOO BIG (to fit) in this (forum).... or was it something I said ?
