Thats sounds an awful lot of work there Gibby! :tongue:

Not really, it's just a bit of copying and pasting into a thread from other people's answers. :huh:

If people want to make suggestions for the forum and I do think this is a good one, then people might need to get involved and do some of the work to bring it to fruition. :wink: :smiley:

Not really, I'm just not as stupid as I might look. :wink:

Len, I didn't say I would help Phil I was just pointing out how it might be done. I think you should do it though, it would give you something to focus on for the good of the forum ! :wink: :laugh:

glad you like the idea gibby. I wouldnt mind puttin a little work in to get it running if thats ok with everyone who didnt like the idea, but would appreciate any advice or help anyone can give.

So do you think I should do a thread in each mk's page for this?  Would I be able to sticky the threads in each so they didnt get lost over time?

I like the idea of people pm-ing me their things to put in there and then I can update it whenever there is something new to add. Il PM JV and see what he hays about all this and we can take things from there.

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:

If jv is ok with it then do it and ask for only you, admin and globals to be able to add or delete etc. I'd say either put an FAQ for each mk or just do one FAQ in the garage section, if you do the latter you need to make sure you have headings for the relevant mk if you do it that way, e.g.

mk1

Q) Car wont start

A) Check petrol
A) Check fuel filler neck

mk2
Q) Car wont start
A) Buy a mk1 !  :grin:

We can sticky the original thread(s) once you start it/them. If jv says go for it then run it how you want it, but it needs to be only a few that can post or edit it then it doesn't get spammed so you could advertise this by telling people what you're planning on doing and getting them to PM you with questions and answers to put into it. :smiley:
