Re: easy removal of centre caps
no need to take the wheels off or risk scratching the wheel by prying it off from the side. I drilled a small hole in the middle of each cap then put a screw driver in and flipped them out. at the most this tool me 4 minutes to replace all centre caps without risking damage to the wheel. its better ...

Re: easy removal of centre caps
Thanks for the advice, I would have taken the wheels off if they needed a clean but i only bought the car two months ago so they are still fairly clean.
i will have a look to see if they have a little hole for a screwdriver if not ill make one! Cheers

Re: Boy Racers
I enjoy putting my foot down when you can tell the person next to you has lined up for a race. I was surprised I beat a 330D the other day. the 0-60 are similar but i had a bm as my last car and its easier to get your power down in a rear wheel drive car because all you weigh shifts to the back over...

Re: Window Fault please help
thanks, i will do both just to be sure. I just hope it doesnt develop into the window problem that makes your windows drop when your cars locked and could ptentially get Stole or at least get wet inside.

Nothing seems to stand out when i search for problems except for minor things like windscreen wipers, boot squeek or windows sticking when its frozen over. do any of you kno...

Re: Engine Question about scirocco and TT
i know both the TT and scirocco now come with the 210 bhp engine but i was just wondering if anyone knew if the older engine in the 58-59 reg scirocco and 56-59 reg TT were the same or different? My main reason for wanting to know is the TT seems to have quite a few problems regarding Oil consumptio...

Engine Question about scirocco and TT
