its one with a star shaped end, quite short, sorry not a good description, i'd take a pic but the only other one i have is holding my mirror on!
-
has anyone got a spare bolt, the ones that bolt the wing mirror on? or can i get one from vw? thanks timmy
-
this time its going to cost too much so im going to have to sell it! ill post up whats wrong with it later when i find out for sure, if anyone wants a bargain lupo that just needs fixing up a little pm me i know im going to lose a huge amount of money but i cant afford the repairs so thats the way it has to be style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":angry:" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

im not even sure whats up with it but i think its electrical style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" /> just runs really rough and the emmisions warning light is flashing more annoying because i have to re arrange loads of things i had planned

so once again my lupos broken, i havent even had it 6 months and its been in the garage for work 4 times and its booked in on tuesday because its broken again. i got a loan out to buy a newer car because i thought it would be more reliable, but no its let me down again. sorry for sounding so angry but i have to vent somewhere, i have plans for the weekend and everything just so annoyed, i think once its fixed ill sell it (for a lot less than i payed for it) then ill get a mk2 golf or something easy to work on and easily modifiable p.s oh yeah i just found out i cant even hire a car to get around because im 19 more anger

indicated speed might not be the actual speed so it could tell you youre doing 125mph just like mine told me 120mph style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

ive got up to 120 with 4 people in, its a 1.4 75bhp, at dead on 5000rpm, would have squeezed it a bit more but felt wobbly style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />
-
i get about 100 miles from £10 on average so its pretty good for a petrol
-
hindsight? just wanted it fixed quickly, its my only transport to work so its pretty important
-
i know mate im seriously considering getting another old dub, much cheaper to fix and easier to service
-
broken wire in the injector!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 fuses and £200 later i have my car back style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> 88 pence worth of parts, £170 labour and the rest v.a.t, a joke! oh well at least its fixed
