Yeah, I thought it could have bad implications, but its had no issues at all....
Anyone else got a two pence worth? Is it worth flushing coolant, new thermostat and seeing if there's any issue?
The last few times I've pulled up in the car, if reversing into a space, when I open the door it seems quite warm. The engine is running no hotter than usual on the gauges or anything, but when pulling up and reversing into a space today, I thought I'd check it over...
When I opened the...
It is just the rotary ones, same as are in any mk2 ph2. The bulbs felt tight as hell, didn't want to break nout :(
Cheers mate, I'll remove it all and give it another tug... lol
I'd be getting some material seats, cheap random buckets from something like a scoob etc... (Then wangle the rears in too)
Only thing letting it down IMO.
Oh, and fix that poxy CV joint you pikey.
Right a few things for you to do....
Open the drivers window, lean into the car and press the lock button on the gearstick surround, do all of the doors lock??
The key in the door will not activate the central locking, it's just the way the car works. If the doors lock/unlock with that...
Gillingham, I'm down there next Tuesday, want me to pop by and take a look at it??
I'm no expert, but I've been an owner for a lot of years so can at least help try to diagnose some issues and you can go from there.
There was also a member who joined up in the last two months who has a family bodyshop, if you can be bothered to search it may be worth your while.
(He was from Essex btw)
If I could find one at Daniel-prices, I'd buy one.
Wick - Sounds like me and you want very similar things next, will make for interesting run's out in the future!
Danny's coming with me, so I need to pick him up from Billericay... means it's not so much of a poxy lie in for me now! FFS!
I might try to get him to drive to me :evil:
Just bought our tickets, I'll text you my number later.
Anyone ever done it??
Opened it up and had a look, felt like they wanted to pull out but seemed to be VERY stiff. Didn't want to break anything so stopped.
Is there some sort of magic trick to this?
Very easy to find indeed.
Tunst on here is selling a full ph2 172 interior (all seats and doorcards for around £300 I think).
I did it my non sport back in the day and it was probably my favourite mod.
The alarm unit sits ontop of the glove box, if you remove the dash top you should be able to see it, try unplugging that before anything else. As far as I'm aware the alarm isn't what activates/deactivates the central locking, as it's an after thought.
Jon_r is selling exactly what it sounds like you want, a set of 15" dynamic wheels, with or without tyres. If you become a full member you'll be able to see the FS section.
If I were you, I'd do the following:
Standard headlights
Skoda splitter
Spacers all around
O.Z Ultralegerras/superlegerras
Remove tints
It'll look SO much tidier, I've always been a fan of this car.
