Immobilizer Mk3

Right, I'm stuck in Wales, my immobilizer is dead... I can't get towed as I don't have cover, so I'm going to have to do the repair here.

Its some scummy cheap unit who'ever had it before fitted, and the wire breaks and cuts make it clear where it goes, and what its doing.

Any recommendations or ...

Mk3 Brakes...

Just got the new pads for the front brakes, anything worth noting before I fit them this weekend?

Never done it before, so any advice would be sound!

Cheers, Laurence

Okay my first advice would be try again in a few hours, Microsoft are pretty s**t, and I have no trust for any of there servers. Having said that last time I checked they where running Linux >.<

If its not been updated for a while, it probally needs a update installer software patch.

Running Temp

My Coupe often only gets up to 75 after at least 15 minutes of driving at around 60mph.

I've only ever seen in hotter when the police had a road block and I sat in traffic for 1 hour, we hit 90c.

Surely running at 75 is bad for the engine!?

Hmmmm - Laurence

Fair enough, I'll go on a mission for a new clock! and photoshop up some dials. Anyone good for parts, or should I go on a scrapy mish/ebay.

The car looks 10 times better just after a good wax, if I get a chance later this week I'll wax and clean it again! :roll:

I'm thinking of replacing/upgrading the VDU in the Polo....

I've read several of the posts on here and it look very do-able...

At the moment, I literally just have Speed, Oil Temp and a fuel gauge... how difficult would it be to scrap that VDU and replace it with somthing abit more comprehensive ...
