no worries. to be honest i use to to clean just about everything.

rb 182, good spec but £3,500.

brake cleaner.

true!! the meg only lasted about ten minutes last time.

or just do the job properly in the first place:wink:

this could be an opportunity for someone to make a good £500 or so. buy dan's car off him, park it up, wait six months until he really really regrets selling it and can't find a tidy low mileage one and then sell it back to him with a nice little mark up on it.

were they deaf? don't see how you can't find a noise when you have the car there.

find someone with one of these...http://www.dynomec.co.uk/ worst thing you can do, if or most likely when the bolt shears at the weld and you're left with a load of manky weld you're pretty much stuffed for drilling though it. had a car in where they tried this and made a pigs ear out of it...

hardly surprising it's sold, i would of been going to view it on behalf of customer of mine but said to him i'd be gobsmacked if it hadn't sold by monday evening at the latest. was it the guy from the wirral who bought it?

early scirrocco rad and you can fit two 13" (possibly 12" but can't remember) fans on the back. will be fine with just one if you want though, for competition bigger power stuff i throw two on but never had any issues with overheating with one.

give it a clean, find the split, will be quite small and lash some superglue on it.

you need the crash data clearing first before you do anything. once that is done or you chuck another airbag ecu on then see what faults come up.

that's single piece shaft so no issue with it catching on the lug on the block. have fitted inner boot but can't for the life of me remember the make?? probably gkn or lucas? will see if i can find out tomorrow. that's passengers side inner boot.

Fresh water in, out the tap will be fine, dishwasher detergent in it and run it for 20 or so miles then repeat. I use fairy platinum cos I is posh.

RE the o/s inner boot you can always cut the chunk of the block off.

Get everything checked first BEFORE you get the tracking done, have seen plenty of cars that he e had tracking done with knocked ball joints, tre's, rods, bearings etc.

Minimal copper slip on bolts, I tend to brush a bit on and then try to brush as much as possible back off so you ha e the thinnest coating as possible. Slider pins I use ceratec, ceramic brake grease, again thin amount, then a quick spray of gt85 on to the carrier itself to thin the grease as...

nope.

aftermarket rad, the bung will screw in to a brass insert.

get the diff end sorted first.

abs does but airbag is pass and advise if it doesn't come on at all.

If you get the chance try it in something with a sequential box :smiley::smiley::smiley:

give them a year or so and they will be peeling apart, seen it plenty of times with them. it's almost like the de laminate.

light doesn't need to come on.

live data and see what the cts is showing.

yarp, 44

why do people think it's hard to get bodies balanced? as long as they aren't worn then it's a doddle to set them up. also they need to be set up properly with any management.

They can be a bit fiddly to get the boot in dead on. Did you have the outer cv in the hub at the time?

i think they look cool...

i get worried when people don't know the difference between a nut and a bolt:wink:
