Hi from Birmingham!!!!!
« on: 01 December 2010, 08:52 »
Hi Guys

I am now the proud owner of a 2.0 GTi! I have just got rid of an Audi A4 2.5 v6 for the car of my dreams, to be fair though its turned out to be a nightmare, saw it in a salvage yard on the auto trader as a running car! Got it back home and it started missing then it conked out all together! I have had some valuable advice from you guys already and as i said before, i am as good with cars as i am with speaking chinese so im sure you will get to know me very quickly!  :laugh:

yeah have tested it with the electrical doofer and it lights up so from the plug so i assume there is no power running through it,
