Re: Plastic part on the dash

Re: Useless aircon
I turned my air con on yesterday and it was making a loud whining noise and not very cold.
Booked in for next week to get it checked out. Sounds like a leak though.

Tyre Choice & uneven wear
Hi I'm needing to replace the two front tyres and was wondering if anybody had changed to something other than the Pirelli P7 Cinturatos 235/40/18 and if so what did you go for and would you recommend? My two fronts have worn down in the middle of the tyre but still a reasonable about of tread left ...

Re: Repairing a damaged bumper
I had my front bumper repaired a few months back. Filled and painted - £175 at an approved VW bodyshop. Brilliant job, you cant see a mark and paint match is perfect.

Re: Bumper Scuffed
I had the very same problem. I contacted the dealer where i bought the car and they put me in touch with the bodyshop they use for similar things. Had bumper resprayed and you cant see a thing now. The bodyshop was a VW authorised one and they took £145.

Re: Bumper Scuff
Just back from the dealers and they quoted it at £175 compared to £125 from a mobile company. It's a no brainer, dealers it is. Thanks for the info guys. Have you checked that they are doing a proper body shop repair not getting a smart repairer to site and charging you a premium for the privilege ...

Bumper Scuff
I have noticed a scuff on the front bumper tonight (rising blue). It's about 2"x6" not very deep. Has anybody had to have a repair like this before and if so, how much did it cost? I'm tempted to use one of those mobile repair guys but was thinking i'd maybe be better getting it done at a ...

Re: Winter Tyres
I've got some 16" steel wheels and 205/55 winter tyres on order (in transit somewhere) - would rather just swap the entire wheel/tyre than have them changing tyres over twice a year and increase the risk of damage to the alloys. But your car will look like an utter shed with balloon 16" w...

Winter Tyres
Was just wondering if any of you guys had switched to winter tyres 235/40/18 and if so what make did you go for and how did you rate them.
I'm seriously considering a set but seem to be hard to come by just now for obvious reasons. Anybody use any other options??

Re: Bonnet Triangular Condensation Mark
I get this on mines as well. I think it's normal as i've had it on other makes and models in the past.
