Noticed today that the fuel pump at the side of the engine weeps fuel out the bottom and is dripping on the water heater pipes and has perished the pipe. Has any one else who's got a 1.4 tdi had this problem? Any body no if I can get a seal kit to repair it?

That's not how you adjust the handbrake properly on vw drum brakes. That 10 mm nut at the end of the cable if tighten that up to make the handbrake feel better
means you have pulled the handbrake levers off there stop inside the drum. To adjust it properly remove the wheel remove the drum check that the levers are at the stop clean the brake shoes with brake cleaner etc. You will see a spring with a piece of metal with a hole in it put the drum back on making sure that the shoes are centered put a screwdriver through the bolt hole in the drum that fits the hole with the spring and bar It downwards tap the drum with hammer which will center the shoes. Turn the drum if it's stil not tightish to turn then repeat not to tight tho or the handbrake will stick on. Just so that there is a slight friction. The same process is applyed to remove the drum by barring the adjuster up. Once both sides are done put wheels on then pump the brake pedel up you will here a click inside the rear drums don't pull the handbake 1st or the adjuster won't self adjust. That's about then hope I helped some1

Just bought some new rubber top mounts for the rear springs. They were a little pricey though........ almost 6 whole pounds!!!! Oh, that's for BOTH
They should be here soon so'll i'll find out if that stops the banging once and for all!!!!!! If they do i'll add them to the "parts number" thread.
did fitting these new top mounts on the rear springs sort out that banging sound? because mine does the same thing
