Got the car through it's MOT, 1 X track rod end, but replaced both. 1 X CV boot, and exhaust bracket needed welding back on. Saving for a Mongoose system. I also fitted a RAMAir induction kit that I got off eBay for £50.
 
So my drivers side window reg decided to die on me (thought i was one of the lucky ones that it wouldnt happen to) how wrong was i :/

Any way, got the part from the stealers £62 inc VAT. and to be fair wasnt a bad job 40-50ish mins from start to finish :)

now my window is back to normal and it also no longer rattles when its part down :)

My passenger one went the other week:( I got mine from seat dealer. Was £105 inc vat which I thought wasn't bad plus it was the complete unit :)
 
Filled him up with some V Power nitro and chose some tunnels to drive through to listen to the wonderful sounds from the exhaust:drool:
 
Bought an o/s fog grill as mine got hit by a pebble and broke one of the honeycombs; Also bought a fabia rear wiper setup. Both to be fitted next week :)

I used vag-com to turn of the annoying auto locking function and made it so all doors unlock with one press of the unlock button.

Scanned my car for fault codes and found fault code 17748 :cry: Did my timing belt last month and was sure the markings lined up as spun the engine over after doing it and it was lined up fine.

Have you double check the timing now!
