[diddles]

Put the standard radio and cd changer in it and getting pissed off that no one wants to buy it!!!!!!! Would of thought at £2950 it would have been snapped up!

I had something similar on my MR2 and the cambelt was out by a tooth, don't think that would be your problem though tbh.

I don't have a petrol, but could it be a coilpack?

Don't think its a coil pack, had 2/4 die on me a few months back so changed all 4 and the plugs as well

could be the leads? fuel filter possibly?

 

[Rivva]

Hmm yes fuel filter, I have noticed when shes nearly empty it runs really rough yet when I pull out of the petrol station with a full tank shes smooth as silk for a good few miles.. does this sound like a fuel filter problem?

Could be worth doing it just to see..they're not expensive and don't take much to change them.
Could also try some injector/fuel system cleaner.

Yeah got one earlier, read the how to guide on here as well. Just a shame about the weather, ill try some redex and also take the TB off and give it a clean.. will then need assistance from someone with vag-com to realign it as my cheap ass cable dont work

I feel your pain man, I was trying to sell a mk5 golf for £4500 a few weeks ago. In the end i got sick of trying and let it go on eBay for £3k. Seems no one can afford second hand cars these days over £500 unless it's financed.

Today, I fixed my leaky rear door. Stripped down, resealed, done in 45 minutes. Well chuffed.

Then I spotted my drivers front foot well sopping wet too. It wasn't like that 3 days ago! Might as well fix the other 3 now!

 

[kr1s77]

replaced the white clip in the clutch pedal

 

[LEE69]

did you beef up the weld at the same time?

 

[yellonvi-R]

Had it mapped at badger 5 stage 1 as the map onit when I got it was aweful. Buzzing now.

 

[kr1s77]

yeah had it welded don't want to go through that again

 

[Rivva]

Put my bosch DV back on to see if it would cure my hesitation and premature dumping.. which it seemed to, but nooo it has come back, but my god does the car feel much more responsive without the 007p on... actually brought a smile to my face to drive it.. and that hasn't happened in a while!

 

[Keithslippery]

Finally got round to fitting my gauges..

 

[ThatWayneBloke]

Them gauges look tidy!

 

[Ronin225]

Looked at the ever growing pile of parts I need to fit, at least the weathers good...oh wait

 

[Gingerbread Man]

Cam belt, water pump, 4 new plugs, rocker cover gasket and wallet significantly lighter! Next up is getting hazard light flasher thing replaced and then start trying to do something about the water in passenger foot well front and rear. I think its door seal and pollen filter, I didn't long ago get that replaced though.

Finally found a place to do my alignment that doesn't have a fit when they see a lowered car, toe on the left wheel was out 1 degree, right was out 14 degrees, safe to say the insides of my tyres haven't lasted long.
