Thanks mate, where do I get that star tool from? right pain in the arse in it thought it would be just a normal screwdriver job lol

Hi guys, how do you got about de-wipering the arosa? I worked out how to take the wiper itself off by just undoing the nut, but what do you have to do from the inside of the boot?

Quick update on this, now fixed and running sweet as a nut Getting amazing mpg on her as-well 55mpg at the moment, mind you I am not driving that fast maybe reason why its so good

Still no mats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has anyone recieved their mats yet? I am still waiting

I am in Steve

Cheers for the info guys, mine is a 1.0

Hi mate, basically the car runs really nice and idles fine until, when you come to a stop the rpm still idles high despite you not touching the accelerator until when you finally come to a stop and the mph reads 0, it then goes down to 800 rpm. Another way to explain it (incase I have confused you ) when the car is at a standstill on a hill the rpm ticks over nicely at 800, but if I then remove my foot from the brake over release the handbrake,... but dont touch the accelerator the car starts to roll and the rpm shoots and stays up at 1,200-1,400 rpm... but then if I put my foot on break and stop the car from rolling the rpm goes back to 800 rpm. Bit of a mouthful that wasnt it Can you help?

Hi guys, how do you work out the mpg? I recently got just over 300 miles to a tank, cost me £25 to fill up 88.9 per litre.

Hi guys, I believe that my delayed idling when coming to a stop in the car my be down to the ecu needing adjusting. Is this a specialised job, as in can any garage do it, or can only certain places help?

Nearly got hold of some mk2 rear lights, next step was the front lights but as you can see from thread had a change of heart now as it seems like a lot of messing around.

Hi guys what a lovely sunny day Noticed a couple of days ago the external aerial had black tape wrapped around it so decided to buy a nex external aerial expecting when the worst when removing the tape. Well, removed the tape and its in a bit of a mess the old aerial. Tried to unscrew the aerial and it unscrews to a point and then it just doesnt seem to be unscrewing no matter how much you turn. I have a feeling a thread in the bolt may be damaged or something? Can someone help? with the tape off now it looks a bit of a mess

Thanks mate, think I will stay with standard then and just change the rears over.

I will take that as a no then, unless I fancy alot of messing about Shame....

Thanks mate cant fault you

I need these quite quickly steve, how long do you think we are looking at before we can go ahead with the group buy?

Hi guys, me again I am in process of facelifting my mk1 arosa with mk2 lights. Regards the front headlights can these also be changed over for mk2 lights?

Where is best place to get hold of the Cambridge lights guys?

Thanks for the replies so far. Based on my car being black any opinions on which of these would look best on my mk1 arosa? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...bayphotohosting or http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=370145759789 Appreciate any comments or advice

Guys, can you post up pics of your rear lights please? Thinking of changing mine from the originals and am looking for ideas My car is black if that helps...

Hi Steve, can you let us know asap regards the mats fitting the mk1 arosa?

Guys as you already know (if you have already read my previous post) my drivers door lock is not working and have ordered the replacement lock (fixing kit) from ebay. But, my question is that the driver door handle is very loose and when driving rattles alot Can anyone recommend how to fix this please?

Well took the car to the garage today and they say they needed to clean the throttle body out as it was stinking. They then said it was fine. Well... I started to drive it home and its not stalling now when coming to a stop but is keeping a idle speed of around 1,000-1,200 rpm. As far as I am aware this is far too high, am I correct? The positive thing is that that car is not stalling (therefore less ) but I am sure she is idling to high therefore using too much petrol. Can someone please advise as to what I can do to sort it?

Yep, I am interested. Count me in
