Argh I've had such a bad day. Go to Halfords buy ramps for £32, then go and get oil and a filter from VW that's £30. Try and get the car on the ramps and burn the clutch badly in the process, lots of smoke was coming out of the engine. Also managed to screw my front splitter. So that's a new clutch I'll be needing a lot sooner than originally and a new front splitter. And did I even get my oil changed? No! The screws wouldn't budge using a star-head, normal allen key or spanner. So now I've wasted £60 when I could of just booked it in for £60 in the first place and had it done profesionally. And I also noticed more stone chips and scratches on the car, and the new dust caps I bought don't fit (after someone knicked the originals). I am so pissed off right now and feel like selling the car. Silly I know but thats how annoyed I am right now. All the little things are adding up

Wait until you try and get the oil filter off mate.

Bit of a struggle as not a lot of room.

Don't worry you'll be over it in a couple of days. Trust me. I've speaking from experience. You'll be loving the car once again.
