What's the difference between RHD and LHD pedals? I always thought they were exactly the same, order, size and all, so I never would have even thought to buy LHD or RHD

LHD is slightly larger, but both will work as well as each other

Probably a blonde question, but- how come? Is there a reason? or just one of those Random kooky Germany things

Something to do with the way the pedal box is made, and funky LHD design lol

Is this what I'm supposed to do with the accelerator pedal or do I fit it directly to the metal pedal plate after removing the plastic cap/pedal cover?







Or have I got it completely wrong and there's some other way?

Need to put it straight on the pedal mate and use silicone to adhere it

This is what i did.

So straight on to the metal plate/pedal?

Either way is good mate I went for straight on the metal pedal plate yeah can get it sitting more flush than on the plastic bit buddy

Don't think I've posted these yet

I seem to only ever post about my issues with my car... don't worry though, I do love it

First issue is my clutch. It's been getting increasingly stiffer, creakier and springier all at once... it's impossible to pull away smoothly without the car juddering like i'm about to stall unless I have near 2000rpm and even then it lurches forward like I've just dumped the clutch. Start stop traffic is just a nightmare. I'm thinking clutch cable or pedal box but as my knowledge on such things is very limited, I'm open to suggestions

Second Issue is handling. The rear of the car has completely let go a number of times in fairly normal driving circumstances... it's a little dangerous. It's like lift off oversteer without lifting off or without inducing understeer to begin with. I could just be turning a corner at maybe 40mph and the back end will let go. It actually let go on me on the dual carriageway at around 65mph the other day... I genuinely thought I was going to die. Initially I thought it could be because I have rubbish budget directional tyres on the back (granted, there is loads of tread on them) but sometimes driving in a straight line it feels like the car starts to drift off in one direction by itself quite dramatically. Other times I could be turning a corner and it'd feel like it's turning in just fine and without the corner tightening up it's as though it's trying to straighten itself up. The body roll seems to be a bit excessive as of late too but perhaps that's just in my head. I've tried to describe everything as best as possible, it is a dangerous problem and one I'd like to get sorted. Thoughts on this one could be shocks, anti-roll bar or bushes? perhaps the tyres are contributing too? ...but as my knowledge on such things is very limited, I'm open to suggestions

Once again, thanks for your help

So I've got this new scirocco rear wiper blade... umm.. how does it fit?! It seems different from the passat estate one

Same as the passat one, though its a bit shorter. Should have a click right to release mechanism, pop the blade on then push the mechanism back to the left towards the arm.

It seems the clip is completely different brb..... i'll get a pic
