Yep mine sounds like a quiet diesel... especially when you first start up.

.

I use to get it on my Clio 200 sport and Fiesta ST so you mustn't have been trying hard enough with previous cars

.

As far as I'm aware this is normal. Mine does it and it would be more apparent after a long journey as the exhaust would be hotter.

£600 with the following mods declared:

Lowered 35mm
Bigger brakes

Is there some way to remove the door handles, disassemble them (they consist of 2 parts?) and put inside some creek-deadening material? I did this and pretty much resolved any noises and they feel more solid. I used this stuff cut down between any parts that could rub: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/25m...

Yes, no problem - should be getting them within the next couple of weeks.

Ps. I note that you are one of the very few who have Reflex Silver - almost rare !

I just move to the sidelights during the day as I prefer the dash lights to be on all the time.

Yeah like this forum...

There are a number of things to try:

Pad out where bonnet stay rests at the front of the engine bay
Pad out the glasses holder in the middle of the car next to the interior lights
Pad out the gap between the front suspension strut and the plastic scuttle panel

If you use enough force upwards they should just pull away. I would recommend removing the wipers first as the force you need to remove the scuttle could cause it to catch on the wiper and snap!

You have to lift them upwards (They pull upwards away from the windscreen and a plastic strip remains attached to the screen a the bottom that has a ridge that keeps the covers in place). If you didn't know already you have to remove the wiper arms. A tip to remove them is undo the bolts but not ful...

Have you had this fitted?

I know mate, it is a total irritant... When it starts again when your driving trying pressing down on the centre console at the grab handles where they meet the underside of the dash. I now need to sort a rattle in the drivers door, I had sorted it with some felt but following the cold snap yesterd...

The engines generally are stronger than VW give credit for

Now to add to the weird part, the "fault" has corrected itself.. Works like normal now. Parked the car, went in for about one hour, came back out and when I got in the window went to the right position. Must have been a sensor issue of some sort. It´s plausible that the handle could have ...

The ignition barrel could be on its way out. Does moving from position 0 to I feel a bit 'loose'?

Hi,

The strap holds a bottle (Usually oil) but I'm not sure you get any with a new car.

I found Admiral to be by far the cheapest even at renewal time!

Just be careful with the air vents as they are a nightmare to remove!

I've just found out that it's actually an area BEHIND the air vents: I'll be doing the upgrade at the weekend so I'd be interested in any other tips Its quite easy on the Rocco, you just unclip the front panel, unscrew the 4 torx bolts, and the unit slides out, remove the quadblock connector from th...
