Funnily enough I pulled out a bottle of Z8 on the TVR now the Infinity Wax Synergy has worn off. Inredible depth. Which way around are you applying, Kev - Zaino and then C2V3 top ups?

Picked up some Adams shampoo so looking forward to using that, thanks. What will strip Autofinesse Aquacoat as a contactless process? Am I going to need a tar and IronX hit, or is there a new product line for stripping sealants?

What’s the go to quick detailer? I’ve just run out of Bouncers Done and Dusted and gutted to see it’s disappeared from shelves.

Folks, please, can the collective brain trust help me, as the issue below is making me go insane... Hit a pothole in the Passat (B8 2016, 80k miles), a few weeks later the MOT failed on a leaking front driver's shock. Indi quoted £300 per shock for Monroe DCC. I found them on AutoDoc for...

How did you get on with the Adams stuff? I'm keen to buy their blue shampoo for the waterspotting tech and Tesco would be ideal.

What's the go to tyre shine at the moment? My Megs gel has run out for the first time in approx two millennia.

Can I call on the Cliosport Bullshit'o'meter... MOT failed on the Passat B8 - front (DCC) shock absorber leaking fluid after hitting a pothole (Council claim submitted). I asked on here about OEM quality aftermarket brands - the consensus was Monroe. Ordered from Autodoc at £115 a side, which...

Feel like that solves it as my power source is a 40m extension reel at the moment as I only use it for power tools in the shed... one wire for the camera run and buried down the garden would suffice I think? Or does that limit me to only PoE stuff and therefore more costly versus Rob's suggestion?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the technology but when you say "network cable that supplies the data and the power" that means one cable from my router to the camera, right, supplying both? I'd not need to plug it into the power source. The power to the shed is via a long extension cable at the...

Search didn't appear to provide results on PoE... Our shed is 40m from the house. We have power but no Wifi coverage. I'd like a camera on it after a few local issues. What are my options? PoE looks like the best route. We have a brand new EE router but unsure if I'd need additional equipment...

Fair :D Holts from Amazon at £8.99.

Bought the cheapest I could find and worked fine on damp and dog sh1t smells from winter walks. Sod spending £17 on the AutoGlym one!

Ordered and delivery today. Can't argue. Indi is being good about it too. Sounded like genuine surprise their parts supplier was significantly more expensive. Booked in and saved circa £400 on parts! *inserting a thank you Jamie and Cat.

Great tip. I was cheeky and shared a referral code with... myself. 10% and already saving £400 on the indie quote.

That was my thought and desire. Any ideas on one to choose for VW?

How reliable is Autodoc on right part numbers? The company I use for service and repairs, who failed the MOT, have come back with £630 for two front Monroe shock absorbers and seemed surprised their supplier (when taking off the extra fat on top...) isn't as cheap as Autodoc (which shoes £115...

Ta gents.

Do they have a good reputation for aftermarket? Never heard of the brand. Yes, im sure you’re right re Golf, Leon etc fitment.

Would anyone know the best OEM-standard, aftermarket replacement for Passat B8 front shock absorbers? The car has dynamic chassis control so would require electronic dampers.

From what I've read, it appears to be a K series type concern - i.e. similar engine in a different application ( K series was a small capacity/powered engine fitted to a heavier car like a Freelander). There is a design difference (unsure what specifically) between the CUAA engines in the...

A second daily tank has landed, earlier than I was considering but effectively (lucky me) inherited based on my father's despising dealerships and trade in. 2016 Passat B8 estate 2l BiTDI, DSG, 4Motion It was a press car, I am led to believe. It has every option ticked bar leather (suits me...

I've kindly inherited a VW Passat BiTD estate from my father. He's damned if he'll trade in with Volvo for half its value and doesn't want to deal with Joe Public... 16 plate, 80k miles (50% covered in the last three years as he drives NW to SW a lot for a few building projects). It's a mega...

If they're not in bad nick, yes - it'll give a good "as new" finish. But it's not a product that will bring greyed plastic back to black. It's a sealant not a dye.

Remember it doesn't go a huge way to making the plastics black again. It seals them. How grey are they?

Which one are you using?

It'll likely damage if not remove the ceramic coat.

Cheers, Riz!

FRP!! Cheers Kev.

What’s the go to QD these days? I’m about out of Bouncers Done & Dusted after about 5 years!
