resealed o/s front and rear doors, was going to do the bit under the wipers (i forgot the name of it lol) but couldn't get the wipers off lmao, will do the n/s next week. i cleaned off what was left of the engine cover lining. i had a look at the EGR/Anti-Shutter Valve and it looks a dirty, can i use carbarettor cleaner on this?

[kr1s77]

Does anyone know if you can get an aftermarket replacement standard backbox ie euro car parts not genuine seat ?

Got another 2 Goodyear F1 Asy 2's to replace the Chinese ditch finders on the rear, car feels amazing.

A motor factors should be able to get you a rear box.

Got new wheel speed sensor fitted, ball ache. Cleared the codes with vagcom, fingers crossed it seems to have solved the problem.

Gave it a quick wash, loving the Meguiars wax I treated it too a couple of weeks ago, the dirt just fell off!
