No worries mate! It has wound me up at times and thrown down all sorts of challenges etc.
But hey at the end of the day we all pay our money and make our choices.

Did a service on the mk3 yesterday - and found out it needed a little more!  :sad: found rear shocks leaking  :cry: rear disc/pads shot to sh!t  :cry:  so off i went to ECP and endd up spending a small fortune - service items  plugs/cap/rotor arm/air/oil filter/pollen filter  forgot the fuel filter! DOH  :rolleyes: new rear discs and pads, Bilstein suspension kit,  went to fit new discs today and found out that they dont come with bearings  :rolleyes: back to ECP for new bearings stripped the rear brakes down and rounded off 1 calliper bolt  :angry: then found the abs ring doesnt come with new discs and old one is solid on old disc - back to ECP  :angry: :angry: £25 for 2 abs rings! :shocked: so fitted them all up  and then changed the rear shocks without to much drama!
Front were a pain in the ass but looks much better now  sitting nice and low, but now have what sounds like spring binding niose when turning - all was fitted as it came off, any ideas on how to get rid of this noise?
