Sack the b**ch! Only problem being from now on you will have to take matters into your own hands ;)

the compatible one are 4 stud renault/vaux/VW/BMW/Audi then differnt but interchangable within themselves is 4 stud ford and pug.etc

yes 4 stud Golf is compaitable with your car, But remeber spacers are bad news, they kill wheel bearings and upset the balance on the car, what everyou do done exceed 10mm absolute maximum

injectors are definitly OK, cams = dunno!

if im doing the group N discs and pads is it really worth changing the lines for braided steel ones? they seem expensive for what they are (£40) maybe if i just use OE ones the will be as good. I will be using maxtorgue discs, mintex pads, and 4.1 fluid, Does this sound like the best steup?

whats the spec of the engine now jimbo?

there is a uni chip for sale in my local free ads, £150 and it suggest its interchangable with any fuel injected car. you would be best with the williams stage 2 chip ither wise you will be underfueling, the injectors are the same, but you might need to adjust/replace the fuel pressure...

mine pops and spits the odd flame under heavy acceleration on the gear change, it good, the old 16v lump on the standard chip used to pop and spit alot more (too much) after the cat as taken out, now with the williams engine and the hill power chip it isnl;t as bad, guess the fueling is more...

i paid £45 from Renault "before" the prices cuts, but having said that i would be suprised if the wheels bearings were affected in price, the other option is going to a specialst bearing manufacturer and they will sell you an identical bearing far cheaper but....... you need the bearing in your...

the VTS/106GTi is a flyer, if i was 1ft shorter and had smaller feet id have a 106 GTi (size 13s in a 106 means you press all 3 at once) but they are a scream, fantastic revy peeky engine, good handeling but not huge grip by any means, the VTS us basicaly the same, VTRs are rubbish, they...

if they damaged it then they should replace it, but.. a cracked sump is not that difficult to fix, the garage sounds like a bit of a carp un, do you mind me asking what you had done for £2.5k? i just cant see how a garage bill can amount to that much

106 GTi = roughly £185 ceramic or £195 steel dont know about the 172

dont worry about non E marked goods, no one would ever know, loads of tyres are like that

the bloke who did my new front bumper has colour coded the bump strips but not the inserts, so it looks like i will be doing the rest, i was going to just do the whole lot black (inc the inserts) but now the fron moulding is blue i guess i will have to do the rest like then and i will paint the...

floor it. dip the clutch, lean forward, and wear a baseball cap, all proven give the best physical and visual acceleration

Ben couldn;t agree more, keep it original, shame the P2 wheels come on the R19, unlike the P1s which are a real cult wheel! they arent pretty but they are specific to that car and thats why they will stay on my car forever! but it wont get any less annoying when people say "nice car, shame it...

as captin says, but do the hammer trick, it really really dies work!

buy it and save it for a rainy day, remeber you will have a fair few bit left over to sell when the swap is done, i couldn;t afford it but its worth it in the long run. if your going to do it sooner or later you might as well do it now and get the use out of it, rather then get some money...

i missed it too!!:@ do they repeat it on BBC choice or 3 or whatevere those digital channels are?

i think we are getting confused here, there are two ways of going to 2 ltrs, both need the willy chip (£160) A - buy a 2 ltr bottom end from a F7R (either willy or early megan 2.0 16v) then you just need the starter, (the crank is all part of the bottom end, its not simply the crank casing...

how far have you got? have you got the retaining nut free? after this is done there is the metal collect that sits on the end of the track rod end and is secured by the retaining nut? to remove the nut, clean up with a wire brush, spray with PTE fluid, leave it and have a good go at it, if...

i fuked right off, i typed a big reply and the stupid thing was lost when i tried to post, (not the first time i have had this problem!:@) its not a difficult job, you certainly dont need a re-mappable ECU, any mechanic worth thier weight in straw could do the swap, provided they can fit a cam...

dont pay more then £400, you should replace everything while its out and easy to get at, i.e cam belt, tensioners, mounts, etc etc, allow £200 for these bits from GSF, and the williams chip is about £150 form Hill power, the starter is about £90, so you could have the whole lot done for a...

the backs went in OK, went to bolt the fronts in expecting them to be easy and the holes dont line up which means driling holes in awkward places on odd shaped metal, thye should be in by tomorrow, mailto:b@starding">b@starding things!!

power steering racks whine, but they all do so you can get some money off saying it needs a new one knowing it dosent, baicasly make sure its goes like it should without miss firing etc, and check for a dicky box, i.e whineing and popping out of gear, also dip the clutch hard when your going...
