Wipers Not Touching Screen in Places
northwick replied to 99hjhm's topic in Car Care, Maintenance and Mechanical
I've had problems with my aero wipers too (see http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?app=forums&module=forums§ion=findpost&pid=741697) I just think they are crap. And very expensive. -
Another NGKs only from me

Anyone watch it to the end? The suburu hits the stationery crashed focus! Fool!

Where is all this work taking place Clairey?

Spoiler Brakelight LED's!

£36 at my VW dealer -
Not the same one with the youngish lad in it? VO51? Not seen it unless its the one that lives out on the Hereford road (that one belongs to a girl). I'm not a GTI stalker, honest.

I'll keep my eye out for it!

I'll keep any eye out for you then! Only need a Raven Blue in Worcester now. Well... if Tom's silver counts for both silvers!

Clairey are you getting a GTI?

ABS Light on and brakes gone funny
northwick replied to savavoom's topic in Car Care, Maintenance and Mechanical
To echo others, that is a knackered sensor. Exact same thing happened to me. Have fun trying to get old sensor out and the new one in. Its tight (and it was an OEM one). To reset ABS light you need to hook up to vag com. -
Its got character. Something that Clios, Corsas etc don't. I like it. I do like the C30 though...

I'm coming home this weekend for Town away at Leeds so keep an eye out for me! Black GTI.

They are stored straight but I think that when removed they curl up too much and become a bit useless.

About six months ago I bought brand new Bosch Aero wipers for my GTI. They worked great. However, about a month ago I took the wiper arms off to take off the wiper motor to get access to behind the dash. The wipers were off the car for a couple of days. Upon refitting one of the blades juddered really badly. I checked I'd got the wiper arm back on properly but no change. Bought a new wiper and its fine. Moral of the story - if you are removing the aero wipers don't leave them off long because I think they lose their shape! Expensive lesson at twenty odd quid a set.

Whats it worth? Stolen recovered will come up on a HPI check when you sell it. If you don't have any sentimental attachment (and its properly insured) then refuse to have it back without some compensation for the stolen recovered tag.

Anyone a regular poster on talk audio?
northwick replied to nfbr's topic in Interior and In-Car Entertainment
Nice work. I noticed that you'd said in a previous thread you used to do electronics repairs (I think). How come you didn't look into these? -
Need help urgently???

Driveshaft on chassis? -

Stop peddling your broken amps to all and sundry PS I don't have 50 posts either -
A year?! Don't go to many multi-storey car parks / drive-thrus then?! Power failure is uncommon. Much more frequent are broken switches and regulators. I'd get a second opinion on the power problem before trying to track that down (unless the other side doesn't work in which case it'll be a fuse).

That handbrake is fit. I want one.

My first spotted! On an interesting note to all Worcester Lupo fans, I saw a silver GTI outside Halfords just before/after you saw me. Private plate S3 MEK. First time I've seen it. Saw our mystery VO51 on they way back home too. He's got white LEDs in his sidelights I think.
