  7. Exhaust Tip Cleaner

    in Detailing and Cleaning

    Posted

    Could anyone recommend any cleaning products for my exhaust tips on my lupo gti? They aren't overly discoloured or anything but I want a polished finish on them for show season. I have seen some people mention Autoglym metal polish a few times but not much has actually been said about it.

    Thanks

    Fair enough. I'll probably sort out what I'm doing closer to the time

    Just to also confirm. there is no camping available at the show, however its in a town called bakewell and there are lots of camp sites available. if you do decide to use one please dont terrorise the place!

    I'll have you know I'm the most sensible person I know :yes:

    You can get them on ebay but I'd be wary as certain transponders refuse to work with certain models. If I were you I wouldn't run the risk, just get one from a main dealer as at least they will be able to make sure you get the right one. Although, I don't know how vw dealership would feel about you not paying them for coding because you could do it yourself. They charge £90 for coding alone.

    If you have vagcom you should be able to do it yourself if you get the flip key. I know the transponders in the normal gti keys are a bit temperamental sometimes, and one of the leads needed to code the transponder to the car are about £40 on ebay, and to get a new blade cut for the flip key is roughly £40 to £50.

    I only know this because I lost my main key and my spare key only manually opens my car so I got a flip key quoted :)

    If you go to a locksmiths (I know some timpsons do it) they can get a flip key cut and coded for about £120 and they will also recode your current key to match as well so you can keep it as a spare. They do have to order the key from vw which takes up to 10 days as it will only have the lock/unlock buttons as opposed to the lock/unlock/boot buttons. If you go to vw, they charge just under £200 to do this.

    Hope this helps!
