[My Poor Lui Lupo]

Driving back from a friends house last night i had trouble getting my GTI into 4th. Then it started making this grinding noise and i could smell what smelt like a burning clutch.

PUlled off the road and waited for the RAC to come check it out and the bloke who turned up said that the hydraulic for the clutch has broke??

U can get it into gear with the engine off but with the engine on it wont go into any gear style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

The car is now at VW in southend and im waiting for them to call me back to let me know what is up with him.

Anyone else had this kinda problem with their GTI?

OH it was £79+VAT for them to just look at it style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />

Cambrige is defo the way to go on a Black GTI

They should have been standard equipment on a GTI.

do they not do any with the reverse light tinted red aswell?

[Rear lights]

Is there any other rear lights available for the lupo apart from the lexus ones?

If so where can i get them from?

Thanks

[Advise Guys on Mirrors]

Hi everyone

just need some advice really.

I went out the other day and parked my car up while i did a bit of sun bedding and when i cam back to the car someone had smashed my drivers side mirror.

the glass is cracked and the casing is pretty mashed too but the mechinism still works fine.

What i want to know is can i get any lupo mirror and just fit the electronic motor and stuff from my GTi mirror or wont that be possible??

Thanks

[30k?]

its unbelievable

where apart from VW can i get hold of the cam belts?

[30k?]

ive just phoned VW and they want about £700 to do the 40k service on mt GTI and change the cam belt

what is exactly involved in the 40k service as a friend of mine is chief mechanic at the local audi and he said he would do the service for me for allot less

[New Girl needs some advice]

Hi peeps

i got my lupo Gti about 2-3 weeks ago now and i want to start doing things to it

ive been looking at a scorpion exhaust and maybe lowering it on some 16"x8" wheels (not sure what ones yet)

can anyone give me some advice on the best places to buy the exhaust and lowering parts and what wheels do ppl reckon would look good on a black GTI??

[ahh wats going on with the brakes on my gti....]

ive never rated green stuff pads

they seem to take a while to get warmed up before they work as they should and who wants that on the road

think its coz of the materials they use to stop them producing as much dust as normal pads.

Just dont think they do the job well enough.

Tarrox dics with Pagid pads seem to be a good combo on my past cars x
