  1. I'm pretty sure mine had that same gap when i had mine off before, at a guess its to let a little bit of air in whilst the car is stationary?
  2. Go to main dealer mate, will be cheap enough.
  3. These could't of came up sale at a worst time! Beautiful wheels and good luck with the sale :
  4. Right, found out the problem on my GTI was the drive shaft, luckily a mate had a spare one. Took the old one off the car tonight. Went to put new boots on the new drive shaft but i noticed the gearbox end had no movement like the old one off the car. Can't work out why its not moving. Made a quick video to show what i mean.
  5. I have plugged my VCDS in and nothing came up. Definitely drive shaft was the problem
  6. Plumbed it back in to work the same as the standard setup.
  7. I thought that first as well but had a look and its definitely not that. Just been to a mates garage and he is convinced its driveshaft :/
  8. I'm pretty sure that as its a sort of knocking noise as well, it disappears over 30-40mph. Had a good look today and can't spot anything obvious
  9. Had a quick search but found nothing exactly the same problem as mine. I went for a random drive tonight and as i was nearly home i heard a horrible grinding noise coming from the front right. It doesn't make a difference if i'm turning the wheels or not. It does it i coast in a straight line as well. Also when i rev it slightly the revs seem to drop very slowly. Does this sound like gearbox or driveshaft? Thanks,
  10. Well the latest mod is a new intake set up, i went for the BMC with custom stainless pipework. Quite pleased with how it looks and it sounds nice too Stupidly i forgot to get picture with the engine cover off but these are the 2 pictures i took
  11. Well i fitted the spring yesterday and it definitely made closing the bonnet easier! But my handle inside the car has gone really loose?
  12. I bought these around 6 months ago from Germany with the intention of putting them on my GTI but decided they didn't suit when test fitting today. They have had tyres fitted once since the refurb and never been driven on. The tyres are not included in the sale. All four are absolutely perfect conditon. These now come with a set of brand new Uniroyal Rainsport 3's fitted. Spec: 15 Inch 4x100 7J ET43 £450
  13. The MK7 wheel looks lovely, i was thinking of changing from my MK6 one so this has helped me decide??
  14. I have had this exact problem since owning mine and never found a fix for it. So this is a massive help, cheers mate!
  15. I done this a few weeks back, it does make a difference!
  16. It will bolt straight on but then there is wiring to for airbag/horn etc
  17. Huw on here did have some Porsche calipers for sale, not sure if he still has them or not.
  18. You need a Rayon pad and some Cerium Oxide.
  19. See you earlier, smoothed front end?
  20. Great video, such an awesome wax and probably my favourite
