if its the 100bhp 1.4 16v engine they will be vented 256mm x 18 or 20mm discs. same as the polo 16v/gti.

no worries in return for that info can i have an extra 200 posts added to my name please? i will do the same for you on your porka.net account.......... haha

seems very cheap vw charge £54.90 for a straight forward oil change inc all the parts and bits and bobs, oh and you get a stamp in ya book as well for being a good boy.

i used to take my own engine oil when the car went for a service, i used mobil 1, but then once the car got a wee bit older and had like 50k on the clock i used the vw stuff as it is thicker which is better for high mileage engines, the car is now on 74k and its 4yrs old!

yes the k&n will fit. the throttle body diameter is the same. 100% sure.

i have had ebc pads in the past, in fact i have had 2 sets, they are good as they provide very very little dust and the performed well which isgood. i am now using some ferodo pads which aren't too bad, but lots of dust i have heard that pagid fast road pads are really wicked !

ooooooooo let me know if you get a copy of that cd and i will do the same if i get a copy of the cd. isn't the service schedule in the log book? i thought that says what needs to be done at what time?!

someone on porka had a maintenace cd but didn't reply when i asked him for one! so that means there is one!

QUOTE(Crusoe)Other than Mr Blakeburn style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />muhahahahahahahhahhaahhaa got ya lynsey!!

i have a copy of etka, not that useful for car mainetance, but if you wanna copy you can put a post up on the porka.net forum and ask someone to burn you a copy as i can't find my cd's anywhere! :-(

oh yeah for got about that, nevermind!! ah time for bed!

ah it looks like you are going to be in trouble coz the one you said looks ***** is the one lynesy was going to get as she likes that one!! hehe! run forest run!!

or you saying this one looks good border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> and this one looks cack border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />

does that make sense? the 1st one looks good but looks crap?! eh?

mk4 polos don't have a 1.7 sdi. they only came with a 1.9 diesel engine

ok my choice would be this one border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> its the poineer 7500mp, mp3 player etc, looks nice and works well, i have had poineer for a while now and i have had no problems with them!! apline are much better if sound is a important issue as they are great sounding headunits but don't look as good as the poineer. [blind date - 'our' graham voice] so lynsey which one will it be?! stereo no.1 who comes from the pioneer factory who has sexy good looks with an average voice or will it be stereo no.2 who looks like a right ugly minger but hasa truely good voice and big 'buttons' for you to play with.................the choice is yours......... [blind date - 'our' graham voice] [blind date - cilla black voice] thanks graham....so lynsey which of our lovely stereos are you going to pick? de dum de dum dem <----music tune to blind date!! crap i need to get out more!

gotta admit aplpine are good but they seriously look *****!

get a pioneer, they aint crap!! they are good as i have had two and they been brill, i have got the MP8400 with the wmv and mp3 player on it, been great!! this one border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />

pioneer

very nice indeed

nice

also induction kits give less power http://www.porka.net/modules....id=5377

this is a very very common problem with these engines its to dowith the throttle body, either it is dirty and needs a good clean out or it could be a faulty one, check this link out http://www.porka.net/modules....id=9682 also if you do a search for throttle body on that forum you will see loads of posts about it.

yes the disc set up will be the same, i think on the non 16v/gti models the discs are 239mm and 256mm on the 16v/gti models like the polo 16v. to change them its the same as any other car, just whip the pads out, undo the carrier bolts and then wal al! you can bleed the system in the same way as you do a normal car or a mk2 golf.

take it to VW, you can claim under warranty!
