hiya mate. HT Leads: i replaced mine with magnecor http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/products/category_results.mhtml?category=magnecor7mmleads;car=vwgolf3;manufacturer=magnecor;sub_category=1

it made a big diffrence it stoped pinking/pinging and the responce was good too!

Clutch release bearing: if its an AGG engine code then the bearing slips in from the pass side of the gear box also id recommend to get a new cover plate (normaly green) this goes on after the bearing it costs about £4-£6 from gsf. its a 5-10min job if the guy knows what his doing, with the box off.

Hope that helps.

I love my car :D

I have fitted it all (garage did box and clutch) and seriously feels like a completely new car.

Now the saving begins for the borbets!
