Blue tac on a piece of wire/stick. Has worked for me before

This happened to one of my mkV polos. Replaced the locking mech, and had no more problems

Credit to the emergency services, air ambulance pilot was amazing. I'd literally just moved away from the strip when it happened,but friends stood on the opposite side saw it and said it was horrific The announcers on the tannoy were very careful about what they said but I know one of the injured had a fractured pelvis.

times Times Congrats on the award

Im really not very technical savvy when it come to suspension- but a tiny little ring on one of mine started moving around, it's hard to explain but this tiny thing sort of held the shock in place, it slipped up, and it meant my shock could come straight up (popping the little mount cover off) I brought them second hand, I guess the person before me managed to dislodge the bit by hitting a pot hole- or maybe it was just a general fault. Anyway It's a long shot but might be worth checking on yours.

yeah its been proper battered bits and pieces falling off

my boyfriend works for VW, and is always getting sent down to Milton Keynes for different training courses. hes a serive advisor tho, so he does different training. ive seen a few photos and the place looks awesome (if youre a vw fan lol) tech wise - well I know that theres like every model car VW have made there, all there for the purpose of training people on, just swapping parts and all that. keep an eye out for the Hulk Touran from Tokyo drift lol

It's ok if you ever have any more problems just let me know and we'll get it sorted for you

Length wise they fit, but youd need a different fitting kit

well that sucks!! My car was registered in Jan 2001. so i should have lower tax like the guys with polos registered in 2000 boo mr. tax man

its the same with the mkV polo GTIs. the very early ones have a slightly lower tax band then the later made ones (they were only made for 2 years :/ 2000-2001)

wow. sounds like the police where you are suck as much as they do where i live my car was broken into last year, i phoned the police and was told theyd be right out. they never came. 4 hours later i phoned them up to ask them when theyd be out as i needed to go get the window fixed and was told 'oh they dont think it would be benificial' my boyfriend's bike was taken the year before (cost over a grand) and they never came out. the only reason he got the bike back was cos he hunted out the little srote that took it. a car parked in my drive way...full blown meters past the gate. they did nothing. but when my boyfriend twit of a neighbour phoned to complain about a car parking infront of his dropped curb (the car was infront of his garden, so wasnt even blocking his drive) and they came out Three times over the weekend to get the car moved!!! the policeman that came out to see you sounds like a right gerk. how dare he be rude about your car. and make up such sh*tty excuses about how the screen broke. hope you get the parking ticket thing sorted out!

Urgh! same. we find alsorts of nasty stuff by the one entance of our drive. theres a school/college opposite from my house, for foreign kids. my garden seems to the hang out spot for them. i drove up my drive one night and spotted some people stood at the other entrance, so i drive down there, open the window and told them where to go. I followed them out of the drive in my car, then turned around down the road, and drive back up the way i had orginally driven up. only to find the kids had come straight back (obviously thinking when i drove out i was leaving for good) cheeky w***ers
