  1. Sorry to hear about the accident but my temperature gauge just sits on 0 too, has done for a while now. the fan still kicks in when it needs to. i think its just a sensor that needs replacing, or so ive been told before
  2. i had the exact same problem but with a lupo. i first noticed it by driving up a hill, it seemed to fill my passenger footwell with water, was like a paddling pool at one point. So i just put a load of towels down and put the heaters on full blast so they where only blowing into the footwells to clear it all out. seemed to sort it out after about an hour, then just dried the carpets and it was alright. there was a lot of water in mine though, it was running down behind the dash.
  3. aah right nice one. might have to get some of them and give them a try, their only cheap. you know what size youve got? (Just assuming you have some) or whats needed?
  4. how do these bolts work? i could do with getting some if they'll sort out the camber on mine, didnt think it was that bad untill i checked the inner edge of my front tyres the other day lol

    Spoilers?

    Done a search.. all that seems to come up is people trying to buy/sell gti spoilers. was wundering, what sort of spoilers are out there for the lupo? been having a look about and the majority of them seem to be the "double" ones, which i arent a fan of http://www.nicedeals.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=717 like that one. what others is there? theres the ones off a GTI that i think look fairly nice, is there a different one on sports or anything, or arosa's? or whats been done that looks alright? Cheers.
  7. Sorted. Got it vag com'd and it came up a fault on the gearbox sensor... got it changed and its sorted everything just replying to it, so if anyone gets the same fault and searches they know the fix. cheers everyone for the help
  8. hey welcome. White lupos all the way
  9. that looks really nice. Love the blue and white together, good job
  10. thanks a lot mate. ill have a look for them
  11. really could do with some help, dont have a clue where to start looking for the earth. anyone at all have a rough idea or anything? because im clutching at straws at the minute. thankyou
  12. been told to check the earthing for the gearbox sensor, because that might be affecting the speedo and fuel gauge. anyone got an idea where the sensor earths to? because apparently it shares a point with the fuel gauge, which would explain why thats been acting up too. Cheers.
  13. this game wrecks your life, wish id never heard about it
  14. i had the same with mine, was under where the ECU is, the drain holes where blocked up with leaves and stuff. just cleared it and ran the heaters on full blast to clear the water out, fine now lol. made my car smell like something had died in it for a while because of the damp lol
  15. pretty sure they did them in 1.0's only ever seen one though, and it was on auto trader a few months back. mines a 1.4, so yeah, they deffinately do them theres acrtually 2 white 1.0L's on auto trader at the minute
  16. Looks like you got yourself a nice little lupo there
  17. aah rite cheers. so it could be just the clocks? or is there some sort of speed sensor in the gearbox? or where is the wheel speed sensor located?
  18. anyone else have any sort of idea what it might be? turns out its just completely ggiven up on me now, all the way home from work i had to judge my speed through cameras by the guy in front. any sort of help would be much appreciated

    My Lupo

    cracking pictures. looks really good in reality, and you dare but the standard wheels back on haha. we'll have to get some group pictures one night with the lot from down maccies
  20. how much did it cost you to get yours sorted mate with it being the ECU? just incase its that? Also, you know where the plug into the gearbox is or anything? going to check over all that at the weekend, make sure its not just come lose or anything
  21. aah rite cheers. could do with getting it looked at then. really isnt good trying to go through speed cameras just guessing your speed lol
  22. Over the past few days my speedo has just been completely cutting out on me, going completely to 0 when i could be doing.. say 60. every so often it comes back to life and works for abit then drops right off again. ive also had it where it like "Wavers?" about abit, say im doing 30.. it will drop to 15, then to 20, back to 15 etc... anyone heard of this problem before? or have any idea how to fix it?.. because from what its doing it looks to me asif its some kind of connection lose somewhere, but im not entirely sure where it might be. are the speedos electrical? or are they mechanically driven? thanks. edit: ive got a video of it on my phone, ill put it up when i find the cable for my computer
  23. Hey, Welcome to CL Car looks tidy from the pictures, nice to see another open air
  24. what lupo was this? apparently a few of my mates have seen a pretty low black one about in keighley, but ive never seen it
