Re: B2 Steering issue

It would be a good idea to check the subframe mounting bolts too.....I had one break on a GL5, that had been clonking on initial acceleration and braking and I didn't find the culprit until it was too late.......it was a subframe off job to retrieve the broken bit of bolt still in the chassis....!!

Re: Fabulous B2 Wagon On The Bay

Nice one......

It would be good to meet up anyway.
I've started work on the Red Fiat Coupe now so should have that ready for the summer.......I guess I miss the old 5 pot warble too much....!!

Take it easy....

Re: MY FIRST B2 PASSAT

The Passat GT had black plastic wheelarch covers like the Golf GTI.
I've seen them on Ebay Germany.....

Re: Any takers for my GL5 Estate..?

Ok......... We are supposed to be fans and guardians of B1 and B2 Passats here, so why whena good one comes on the market at sensible money does nobody want it..? I have reduced this good car to £350 from £500........There is an Audi 90 project car, rough with no t + t on ebay with that as a start...

Any takers for my GL5 Estate..?

I've had lots of hits but no callers...!! She's an 86 C reg auto with 75k on the clock in silver with blue trim. All doors good, as is the tail gate......solid underneath but needs rear arches doing. She runs great....Tax and test into December. What she does need is a good home. I'm looking for £3...

Its the same box on the Audi 80 1.8S up to 1991.....That should give you a bit more choice.

Re: GL5 rad..??

Hi and thanks....

Surprisingly, all the card shrouding is still there, its just I think the car has sat around more than its run over the years.....its still only got 74K on the clock.
I will sort it, no worries about that.....the old girl deserves it...!!

Re: GL5 rad..??

MIne does exactly the same thing.

I had a GL5 years ago that did this and I cured it with a better rad. They tend to get sludged up on the 5cylinder cars and the narrow rad can't cope after a good few years.

I'm finding it difficult to get a good rad.
