New wheels

Okay, just bought some Sharan wheels on an impulse (and bargain price - for the price of less than the nearly new tyres I got the wheels thrown in too) Anyroad, am thinking of fitting to my B5.5 tdi 130 Sport, the pcd 112x5 is the same, but the et is 50, I'm not certain what the et of the original S...

Quick question on those pics - are they stud adaptors on your hubs to convert from 5x112 - 5x100?

So which calipers are they that you managed to buy? Are the TDi 130s already 312mm then?

It's actually already got a 6-cd changer in the boot, but I want to play MP3s as I listen to a lot of audio books, and it's a pain in the ass trying to get them onto CDs. Interesting idea, looks as though it might fit. Just need to find some decent way of outputting the sound now to a couple of amps...

Nope, but it's the first "decent" diesel I've owned, the first one was a 205 diesel many years ago, that was great as a runaround, but fell apart, the second was a non-turbo 406 that was horrible...

Updates for SatNav in B5.5

Okay, gettng a B5.5 next week with the VW SatNav unit fitted, I was wondering if there was any way to update the maps in the car as it's now 5 years old and I am off to Germany later in the year and want to get around there properly too :)

Quick other question on the same sort of subject - what size tyres would I need on 7x17" alloys to keep the same rolling radius as the 16" Sport Alloys on a 130 TDi PD SE?

Quick question then on this MP3 unit, and Passat stereos... anybody know the name for the SatNav unit built into '02 Passats? (I don't actually pick mine up until next week and want to know if I can fit one of these as they would suit me down to the ground!) P.S. Hi Andi, as I said on Corrado Forum ...

What makes you say that?

I've just got an 02 130pdi estate Tiptronic - wondering what sort of remaps people have gone for (Revo, etc?), what sort of costs and what sort of power they were getting?
