Jnmercury00 Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 i was looking in my boot today because i have a weird rattle coming from the rear of my car and i am not 100% sure but i think there may be some stuff missing that should be there.(i had my car serviced recently). there is that little blue box which i think is the tyre pump but i am sure there was something strapped in with it last time i looked.could someone either take a picture or go over what should be in the section next to the battery.thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossjohnc Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 That might have been the tyre weld stuff - it should be under the compressor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossjohnc Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 Well other than that you should have a screwdriver and a centre cap removal tool (small bit of wire).There is a big gap with a strap for a first aid kit/warning triangle, but it's not standard equipment.Phatnoise fits in nicely style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jnmercury00 Posted July 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 i think thats all in there, it just worried me because there were a couple of moulded areas in the foam with nothing in it.cheers big ears! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignore tow rope etc I put those in there!! border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />oh and you should have an air compresser as well.Hope this helps mate.Nick. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossjohnc Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 Ahh yes, forgot the little (really useful?) spanner...And your centre cap removal tool is in the wrong place style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossjohnc Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 I think he's left it out to show the tyre weld. border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossjohnc Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 No towing eye if you've got a GTI - that's built in to the front of the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

db Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 (edited) My boot looks empty compared to that, i dont have the grey polystyrene holder, my compressor is under the battery cover with the battery and i have a big empty space next to it, i'll post a pic tomorrow when i can be bothered, oh and the battery cover has snapped clips.
