Wing mirror problem
Ever since I have owned car the driver side mirror heater doesn't work and unable to adjust it. The passenger one is fine. When i got the car it was just a cheapy replacement glass in it so I swapped it for the proper heated one and no luck so I am guessing there is no power going to it seen as i ca...

Re: Indicators Don't Flash When Locking/Unlocking
The bonnet switch in mine is broke so every time I open it i need to manually push it down otherwise my indicators don't flash. Maybe worth checking to see if you can push it down then try locking

Re: iOS 7 upgrade
that's strange unless mine is genuine but it was free with a 1.99 case so doubt it lol I just use it when I am playing music through my phone. It is connected through the headunit though so I don't know if that makes a difference

Re: 1.8t spark plugs
I changed the gap to 0.7mm and it might be my imagination but it does feel slightly better

Re: 1.8t spark plugs
on the NGK website it's sais this "A good rule of thumb is, one Heat Range colder for every 75–100hp added" So I wouldn't need to get a colder plug all i need to do is reduce the gap to 0.7mm? Last question i promise lol Yogib5: just noticed you edited your post saying if its not misfiri...

Re: 1.8t spark plugs
Cheers, no harm in trying i suppose. I know you said the BKR6E is copper and doesn't last as long, is the PFR6Q the longer lasting equivalent and I would just manually adjust that to 0.7mm as well? or is there a better longer lasting one

Re: 1.8t spark plugs
Cheers so the BKR7E is only really if you have the bigger turbo and a remap not just a remap then and the BKR6E is best for just a remap and then manually adjusted to 0.7mm? Just want to make sure i understand right before i make any purchases. The car for years does sometimes struggle to start espe...

Re: 1.8t spark plugs
just reading through this is making me wonder about the gap of my plugs. Mine is remapped and almost positive its just standard gap rather than the 0.8mm mentioned. Would i notice this driving or am i best to buy a set and put them to 0.8mm? will i notice a difference
