Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Just a quick video I made a while back to show off the sound of the standard exhaust on start-up and revving.

Enjoy!

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Haven't been on the forum for a while as work has literally taken over my life, oh the fun! The car hasn't been used much in the last couple of months and I have made the tough decision that she'll be put up for sale. I'll do a detailed advert as soon as I get a chance (hopefully this weekend) but i...

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Service time tomorrow so thought I better give the engine bay a quick tidy up. She's also developed a couple of really annoying rattles/knocking noises over the past few months which I'm hoping will be sorted at the same time. The first sounds like it's coming from behind the dash area and the secon...

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

So time for a bit of lowering. VWR springs giving a drop of around 20-25mm. http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h356/orrio1/86_zpsj4em0iuu.jpg http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h356/orrio1/85_zpslovihkz7.jpg And the link to where I got them from: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151539849010?_trksid=p206...

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Finally had a chance to fit the spacers. I went 12mm all round as recommended by 'Victor' (there is a link to where I got these from on page 1). http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h356/orrio1/56_zpsgv6eyo6l.jpg As all the wheels were coming off it gave me a chance to give everything a tidy up (pain...

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Got a little bored today waiting for my gloss black front VW badge to turn up so decided to take the original off as I won't be using the car for the next few days. These are the only 'tools' you need + the Mrs hairdryer. http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h356/orrio1/67_zps6of09tc1.jpg Warm up the...

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Just fitted these today, but I seem to be getting a very slight flickering when they fire up and they also dim slightly when the windows go back up, is this something you're experiencing? Lovely ride by the way! Cheers. Checked this out tonight and yes very slight flickering on fire up but didn't h...

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Lovely car fella. I wish i could get as excited as everybody else when it comes to upgrading bulbs, though even i can see the difference those puddle thingies have made! Top job. This makes so much difference to the car! I don't understand why VW don't do it as standard anyway, especially with xeno...

Cheers Tom. I plan on looking through your thread at some point but at 16 pages long might have to wait until I get some time off work!

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Another quick update, changing the wing mirror puddle lights to LED units. Thought I'd do a quick guide just in case anyone wants to do them and isn't quite sure how. Very easy job, takes about 10 minutes a side. So here they are: http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h356/orrio1/29_zps6rdw1jfo.jpg An...

Re: ROC r mpg

Here's my long-term average fuel consumption. http://i1105.photobucket.com/albums/h356/orrio1/54_zps2sikt6b3.jpg I've owned the car for three months and would say I drive it 'sensibly'. I average 60 miles a day, mainly 'A' roads with very little start stop. Most I've had out of a full tank is 380 mi...

Re: Oryx White Scirocco R

Small job this morning - as mentioned before the 'R' emblem on my front brake caliper covers seemed to have gone AWOL during the previous owners time (not sure if this is a common issue). So I purchased the following high temperature emblems from ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/381444593759?_trksid=...
