Yesterday got my actuator setup properly

Today - got told my aircon is broken  :angry: :cry: :cry:
knew i shouldnt have said anything about it  :grin: :laugh:

Ha - I fixed it Thursday night - would help if I hadn't removed the fuse  :lipsrsealed:  Still the monkey at VW couldn't work that out.......

Today I've mostly looked at it when I'm passing the window  :laugh: :laugh:

Mileage 1140 miles.
Had an oil change with Motul VW Specific 5W30 504 00, new filter, plug + Boron Silk engine additive + Boron Silk fuel additive to full tank of BP Ultimate 97RON. Done at my VW dealership.
Running like a dream. So very smooth now & probably due to new oil in engine.
The other stuff will take 500 to 1000 miles to be felt I am told.
Ahhhh! :smiley:

PS: Also collected my new Ed30 Manual shift. Looks and feels ver' nice. :smiley:

Removed Headliner for refit. Can anyone tell me if the Headliner in a 3dr is the same as a 5dr?
