It would seem something goes in there, whats that in there then?

When I open my door the edge of the door card that meets the striker plate when the door is shut, there is a hole there, whats that for? It isn't on any of the other door cards.

Thing is guys I'm not after a mirror finish, my car is silver so I'll never get that same finish than say a Black car, I just want to tcut and wax like I always do but these days products seem to be made to work in conjunction with 3 or 4 other products, I simply don't have the time to stand out on ...

Mine , 2008 cr was doing 63mpg yesterday, usually average 55 - 56 mpg on country roads. It has 170k on the clock and badly needs a service.

Are the locks just pins? Or are they the type that clamps into the pulley teeth? and most importantly, are they expensive?

My old Saab had this problem, reduced light output due to cloudy projector lenses (not the actual head lamp lens), some cloth on a bit of wire sorted it out.

Does you need a puller to remove the crank pulley? I have the tools, just not the pins, ive done belts before, just not on one of these.

Also, is it necessary to put each album in a seperate folder? And how do I name each folder as the name of the album? And I take it a dvd wont work , only cdr?

They were ripped as wav and hi rres flack (sacd) then re encoded to mp3 320, one of the albums plays flawlessly and I think this one might be VBR, Ill check to see.

How difficult are they to do? Ive been told its a 6mm pin to lock the cams?

I finalised it and it works, but spme folders dont play properly, they load and play but skip.

So last night I put some MP3s on a CDR as a data disc, when I put the CD into the player I get an error message and nit spits the cd back out, any ideas? The CD wasn't finalised when I burned it.

My days of tcut and turtle wax are long gone, I simply cant be arsed. So today I tried a turtle wax wash/wax on a bottle, it didnt work, so I suspect I will need a tcut type product first to take any oxadising off the paint that it preventing the wash n wax produ t from working, any recomendations?

Dont these turbos need to be balaned?

Tdi, 2008, cr engine, can anyone recomend a decent belt kit and pump please?

So I went out to the shop, its raining and quite cool out side, temp gauge normal. I pulled into my drive and switched the car off. The cooling fan was still running, its been running for a while now. I take it the temp sensor for the fan or a relay has gone pear shaped?

Cant find a free one, paid ones range from a few quid to HOW MUCH? Any thoughts?

Mine has done 170k, book says its on its second belt, I really must get around to doing it!

Just to add I worked for a local German car specialist in Stanton (bury st Edmunds) until not too long ago (I build combine harvesters now), I can give you their details if you like? The mechanics there know their way around VW's and should be able to get to the bottom of it for you. Are you in Ipsw...

Have you put a new cam shaft sensor on it?

Ive never had an estate car before, I guess its maybe because you may well find yourself loading the boot up on occasion and not able to adjust tyre pressure? My Saab Aero saloon was 35 front and 35 rear. I suppose like said above I should play it safe and go for 50 percent loaded so take minimum an...

So 36 front, 41 rear? That sounds about right to be honest.

As it is it does drive Ok and it grips really well too, even in the wet, but I don't want to be putting new tyres on it prematurely.

so I'm thinking 36 front 40 rear? Or should I go with the heavier load rating?

Nope, I was reading it wrongly...... #-o http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k9/robertgilmore/8719b2ae-e15c-4068-a43e-5299e8bfcf2b.jpg 33 front 33 rear with two people and a small bag. or 39 front 44 rear with loads of people and loads of bags. :shock: Nothing there for two adults , two small children...

I think the previous owner read the sticker wrongly, it should be 37 front and 44 rear for my size of tyre according to the sticker.Ill upload a photo when photobucket gets its bum in gear.
