Thanks for the reply. Any idea how much that would cost and if it's worth checking the local scrappy's for second hand ones?

Hi all, So while i was having the dreaded cambelt and water pump change the other day i asked them to take a look at my aircon as it seems the gas needs changing every 8 months or so. They can spot a leak with the pipes when they used their blacklight and said to replace the pipes, as they go into t...

Nothing wrong with sounding like a diesel hehe

In all seriousness hope you get it sorted mate.

Congratulations and hope you enjoy it. Stealth indeed as I can't even see it in the pictures :) That was the plan ;) nah I just haven't had any good weather to take Any pics, I picked the car up Friday and it has been raining since :( pics soon to follow!

I've got a nextbase 212 from halfords for around the same price. It's a sucky on the windscreen but i've mounted it pretty much behind the rearview mirror so it doesn't obstruct my view, got a quick detach option to. Films in 1080p and comes with a parking sensor so will switch on if the car gets bu...

Thanks for the response chaps. Seems pretty much everyone is in the mind that DSG would be the way to go next time then! May try and see if my local VW dealer has an R i can test drive.

Thanks again all.

Hi Chaps & Chapesses I'm guessing this is the right part of the forum for this question. And the question is more aimed at those people who have been lucky enough to own both a manual and a DSG rocco. Now, i've been a fan of manual cars since i passed my test those many years ago. However more a...

It's one of those age old arguments with people for and against depending on who you ask! I personally use Vpower in my TDI after hearing horror stories about the cheap supermarket diesel and how it can clog up your tank with gunge. Some people i'm sure will say cheap supermarket diesel is fine! I c...

Finished the interior trim now. I'm quite happy with the result as i feel the contrast between Candy White and black matches the exterior. Please excuse the mess inside and the dash cam cable, haven't gotten around to installing it properly yet!

Be brutal guys, give me your honest opinions!

Mine are from Ebay, but i went for the more expensive options as opposed to the cheap £1 lights. The footwell's are actually full LED replacement units rather than LED bulbs in the original units. I had the same problem with cheap LED lights. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-VOLKSWAGEN-PASSAT-CC-SCIROC...

Started my mini project to paint my interior trim candy white to match the outside!

Sorry for the delay! But here's the interior. Not the best pics because they kept coming out purple!

Hi all, I've been lurking on the forum for awhile now but thought it about time to show off my Doris! She's my pride and joy and the produce of lots of blood sweat and tears (beers).
