Super subtle mini mod

Super quick, subtle Mini mod to save my sanity.....

Always plug in passenger seat belt if no one is in the car cause it knocks and bangs while im driving, drives me crazy!

I put a strip of the soft half of velcro on the buckle.....

....then realised why not just use the other half and can stick it to the pillar when not in use

Does it not rattle & bang on anyone elses?

Went for a drive round the corner to the Berlebeck hills to take Winston walkies...

Only piePhone snaps like

Got all OCD on the car today. Washed it (twice), then clayed polished and waxed it before cleaning the engine bay and interior. I'm sure the wife and German Shepherd will mess it up for me again pretty soon though!

 

[Bignod00]

Sorry dude, got all confused and posted in the wrong thread! God damn it!

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Hahaha, no bother. Never thought Id see the day a dog went in the car but with the boot liner and his car harness it's not too bad. He's only small lol

 

[Bignod00]

Me neither buddy, got a massive rear seat liner and dog harness also so the puppy doesn't destroy the interior! He's only 5months old but 31kg already, gunna be a monster!

[Tfsi_Mike]

Gave her a quick wash this morning at work...

Then took her to Seat for a new fuel filter...

Started and drove really nicely, made me wonder if it would stop the most recent spluttering. *But was nearly home going up hill with 25M to empty on the dash and splutter splutter. *:fighting:

Going to do a scan in a min to see if the cyl 3 missfire has settled and then going for some new irridiums.


Also called into say Morgen to the local fire fighters as they were all pointing at the car as I was sat in traffic...

Cant wait to get a decent camera! iPhone's good for random quick snapping but not upto some of the great shot opportunities that randomly arise...

Thanks mate.

The upper spoiler has crossed my mind, I wouldn't fit the bumper

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

^^^ on a side note it was yours that made me want / do the gloss black fog grills.

 

[Barry-Lee]

Ja i don't care much for the back bumper but trying to source the wing in SA is proving to be pricey.

Glad i helped someone out.
We even then, I'm wrapping my roof in gloss black come November.
As much as I'd like to spray it wrapping seems to do the same trick.

this its SICK!!! mega love man keep up the good work

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

^ thanks dude.

Just hardwired my satnav today and ran the wires to rear view mirror for red LEDs.

Got a misfire problem that coils, plugs or new fuel filter don't seem to have sorted

Ordered a new revision Pcv and will take off the BSH catch can just to rule it out. Then may swap Forge DV for OEM revised DV

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Mini Update;

Hardwired my Tom Tom and ran the wires into my Rear view mirror for the Red LEDs as found in the auto dimming mirror

Then one that Im loving, a cool mini mod - 'The Boot Pop'



Having a nightmare with a missire mostly on Cyl 3. swapped the plug to Cly2 to see if it moved, no change. New coilpacks, no change.

Ordered a new PCV as there is no change in the revs when I remove the dipstick.

Ordered an injector for Cylinder 3. Fingers crossed
