basics
« on: 12 January 2005, 19:51 »
help required, just got my first vw and just a few questions.

1) tyre pressures front and rear?

2) can bulb inside heated rear window switch and headlamp switch be replaced?

3) heater panel switch which type of bulb?

4) mfa continuely shows 6:00 have taken fuse out can I do anything else to get it working?

think thats it, 1988 gti 8v by the way if it makes any difference running 15" wheels with 195/50 tyres

help would be appreciated
cheers

4, pull the fuse out and leave it out for 10/15 secs, then put it back in

whatever tyre pressure you run always run 2psi higher at the front

cheers guys.
mfa now works a bit, think the vac hose has come off so not getting mpg etc.
got to work up the enthusiasim to tackle bulb replacement,
coing for new switches and heater control from gsf and replacing all bulbs with LED ones from ultraleds.co.uk and hopefully will never have to do this again!!!!
