Re: Breaking 2001 polo gti 6n2
Do you still have the Steering Wheel and is it in good condition?

Black GTI - Chester
I noticed somebody, most likely off here going down Brook Lane, Newton on the Wednesday when posting some packages. I was walking at the time, since I only live locally - the GTI tucked up at home

As with mk4 glx 1.6 I'm running Michelin Pilot Exalto 2's. I'd recommend them. I haven't had a dodgy moment at all recently. Especially weird considering the awful weather. I had good experience in the past with Yokohama A539's but they wear too quickly for my liking. I've been told this by others a...

Some dodgy garages will however try and tell you otherwise. I had this happen when sorting out somebody else's car. One of Handbrake cables was applying properly. I told them I didn't expect a charge when I returned within 7 days in a fairly plain way, and they seemed to change their mind and didn't...

No the information in the flap is specific to the GTI. My girlfriend has a Mk5 as well and the information is v. different. In her case the pressures on the lower side. Plus I'd of thought also the other give away would be the suggestion it makes to use 98 RON. Wouldn't expect that'd be useful to an...

I went for Michellin Pilot Exalto 2's all round last time I changed. From experience of cars with rubbish tyres, or those that are near their wear mark, good tyres are worth their weight in gold, especially since they're the cars only contact with the ground. I'd say £70+ though for Yokohama's is o...

From the point of view of the Cambelt I paid just under £300 if I remember correctly. I bought the parts from my local dealer, and my local specialist did the work (Central VW - Ellesmere Port). I ended up with about 1/2 or 1 litre of Coolant left over which is good. From the point of view of the s...

I recently did about 35 miles on the red light. To be hones they're usually set to give you about 50 miles with the red light on. Agree should be able to get about 280-310 miles, maybe a bit more if you're lucky. Town driving only knocks it down to about 30MPG, which is good, and as said higher is p...
