so fed up.
« on: 09 December 2009, 11:05 »
it all started when my clutch started slipping so decided to go for the g60/vr6 set up.
so i ordered my sachs clutch from a well known tinterweb site, waited a week and got fed up of waiting so decided to phone.
 they tell me there is none in stock and are on a another 10 day wait from germany :angry:.
so, i managed to get a refund and scraped the cash to source one locally  :smiley: 25 quid cheaper too.
next was the flywheel, tried every local scrappy with no luck at all, so the internet came to the rescue (ish). found a well known vw breaker and they send me the wrong flywheel :angry:.
so, got another wait now :cry:.

I know that feeling mate, since i got my Turbo back in mid November i have not stopped spending money on it :(
Was up bodyshop last night getting the rust sorted out around the boot handle.
Its all the £20-£50 that add up on the C/C at the end of the month.....(oh and there was the £390.00 coil over kit aswell).
But i'm hopeing there is a light at the end of the tunnel.......  :undecided:
Show me a man with a tattoo and i'll show you a man with an interesting past :wink:

I had the wrong flywheel sent to me when i had my clutch fitted last year - company tried to tell me they had sent the right one whilst the mechanic fitting it was saying no way is it going to fit  :angry:
