  1. Hi, my gti has developed a knock which sounds like it's coming from front near side. It mainly happens as I accelerate and on acceleration after each gear change after that. Same noise seems apparent when hitting a sharp bump in the road. The car has new cv joints, wishbones, ball joints and drop links. I have have checked everything including top mount and everything is tight. Can't seem to find the noise at all and it's impossible to replicate when not accelerating under load. Any ideas anyone? Cheers
  2. Yeh, got new tyres an sure enough it doesn't rub anymore. Surprisingly rare 195/45s are. Cheers for your help chaps
  3. Took the gti for a mot yesterday and it failed because both front tyre rub whilst on full lock, the car has coilover fitted so I have raised it as much as I can however they still rub! Currently has standard barthursts with 195/50/15 tyres, would dropping to 195/45/15 solve this or is there anything else I can try before buying new tyres?

    Vw mfd

    Recently fitted a mfd from a mk4 golf into the gti, I used the conversion harness and everything is working fine apart from one thing. the head unit does not turn on or off with the ignition, have to press the power button everytime. Anyone have any ideas? Cheers
  5. That's just what I was after mate, cheers. However the top arrow in the photo isn't the support frame (part 13). It is attached along from it directly under the headlight. Any ideas? It doesn't seem to be on the diagram at all....thanks
  6. ok so im trying to find a few part numbers, from the elaswin pic below i need No16 and No20 (also what is 20 for?), also from the second photo i need the 2 parts arrowed, one being a bracket which sits under the headlight and bolts to the wing, the other clips behind washer jet hole (assumingly keeping it secure). Any help at all would be appreciated, been searching for hours and cant find any info. cheers
