Re: Tim's Fabia vRS

Looks like you got a great example there Tim. I got a vRS back in June. As much as I love it, I still miss my GTi...my heart sinks every time I see one. The Fabia makes much more sense financially though; half the price in tax and much less in insurance. If you have Vagcom, get Autolock put on (if y...

Clutch alone costs over £100 from GSF, cable was over £40 from VW. Based in Birmingham. Would prefer pick up, but will post if you offer to pay the postage. Also have...

I bought the SACHs clutch kit from Andrew Page on Thursday. Was around £60 - was expecting to pay a lot more.

Re: Cd Changer - How does it fix to the boot?

Ha, lucky I read this. I just had to tighten the bolts on mine. They say a picture says a thousand words. Hope this helps. http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c214/Bedsidelamp/th_100_3814.jpg http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c214/Bedsidelamp/th_100_3813.jpg http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c214/Beds...

Re: climatronic

Make sure its not unplugged. VW must have forgot to plug something back in when I had mine regassed. Another garage plugged it back in and it was all good.

Re: Gearbox problems?

Great :(

Could you do me a favour Tim and post the part numbers for the Sachs Clutch - thats the one you recommend right? Do I also need a new clutch cable - do you have the number for that too?

And how much am I looking at for the Clutch, cable and fitting?

Cheers

Gearbox problems?

I've been having problems the past couple of days when changing gear. When I put the car into first (and sometimes second) its really stiff and I have to use more considerable force. Wierd thing is the car is better when cold, but when its warm and I'm in traffic it starts to play up. I can't hear a...

Re: iPod connection to standard HU possible?

I've got an XCarLink plugged into a standard HU in my GTi. Works great and allows me to keep my CD Changer working too.
