Re: Bumped my bumper!
That doesnt sound too bad, ive just had to purchase a new bumper( well scrap dealer "new" there is a few light marks on it) and rear light cluster after my rocco rolled off my steep driveway into a wall! Great! Handbrake was on but obviously not enough and it happened to be the only time i...

Re: Grinding when braking???
30000 mate, seems bit premature but they reckoned they were binding slightly too! So calipers have been greased on the pistons to hopefully prevent that! Hope you sort it mate on the plus side im moving to audi !

Re: Grinding when braking???
Thanks for the replies everyone, im starting to get a whirring noise now on the motorway from rear end so may be warped discs or sounds like hub bearing failure will be getting it into vw to see what the useless (i mean useful) mechanics can sort out.
Cheers

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?
Glad your happy with the remap, i bet she rips now! Im looking at getting mine done in the next couple of weeks, how much did it set 'her' back if you dont mind ? Did they say whether you will get improved mpg just as i drive a lot of motorway miles!

Re: Odd/annoying inner film on windscreen??
Cheers for the info lads i will try out the neat screenwash and the cleaner and see if that clears it :), if not it will be a case of just living with it till its next service is up then asking the dealership if they have anything strong enough to remove it. I will give the pre wax cleaner a try tod...

Re: Odd/annoying inner film on windscreen??
I tried to upload a picture but it failed unfortunately, i have cleaned the inside with tardis too thinking it was just a build up of dirt but it hasnt cleared this (rough to the touch) inner film. Thanks rw1 i will try that cleaner and see if it does the job. Thanks guys

Odd/annoying inner film on windscreen??
Hi there, am wondering if any of you know how to cure this problem. It is clearly visible when the car is misted or driving in rain, its definately on the inside as ive fully cleaned the outer with tardis and fastglass. Its quite annoying!
Any information would be great
Cheers chris

Re: What car cleaning products would you guys recommend
Visit polishedbliss.co.uk. Auto finesse products are excellent as deacon said. Invest in a good lambswool wash mitt and a good drying towel, along with some decent microfibre cloths. All information required on what products to buy are on the polished bliss website, quite good IMO.

Here is a picture of my scirocco parked up at my Raf base, big water globules sat there which quickly slid off nicely as...
