Dont want to sound too stupid but how do you tell when the pads are worn. Is there a set depth?

I have a 1month old , mint condition Stealth Shelf Parcel Shelf. Its dark grey and the speakers fit between two bits of wood held together by allen bolts, to completely hide them from preying eyes! Its a dark grey top quality felt. The felt is in mint condition but the wood underneath is slightly ma...

I recently painted my front calipers (very carefully) with out taking them off, but now, about 3 weeks later im getting an awful sqeak when braking slowish (not heavy braking). I think its coincedence but just wondered if any of you experts think otherwise or if theres anything else you think it cou...

Yeah I thought that as I painted them on my Type R and no trouble. What about spraying brake cleaner on them then going for a quick HARSH spin!?

Yeah i didnt want to pay that but I couldnt let a clean car pass. Started modding myself. If you cant get insured on a Gti they wont insure on on a highly modified car. I used to have a Type R (03) , churchill cost me £900, then got a 1.4 Polo and they wouldn't insure me with an induction kit!!!!!!...

Re Mk's: Thats a Europeon Thing. You have a Mk5 / 6N2.

Do any other lights work on that side? Could be a loose connection

I just recently paid just under 4K for a SE model (only 8V though!!!) 5 door, with full mot and tax. From an independent VW dealership. Mint model, in and out. Just alloy scrapes. 3 Months warrenty, which i used as water pump went!! So doesnt sound too bad if its got a good history and its clean Plu...

Hi, thanks for your reply but for now i've chosen to just change the filters, either BMC or K&N as my insurance company wont insure me and the cheapest I got quoted was an extra £300.

Not worth it for poss 5BHP and some noise

Go to K&N website and they give you step by step guides which shouldn't be too different to what your after.

With Induction kits they do give a small increase in BHP and your adding something, which would void your insurance if they found out you've got one. The next option would be replace the air filter as your only changing same for same and K&N rekon they give you a tiny increase but no noise i'm a...

Yeah I also had the 1000w Fli in my old 6N. Very neat, matched carpet, easy to instal and very good quality for the price.
