Scirocco Central

VW Durham forgot to update me again... Bloody useless! Atleast the warranty have authorised the clutch plate replacement! Phew!

good news, selley [emoji106]

Got the car back. They replaced the clutch plates and the release bearing under warranty .

Also noticed small scuffs on the black plastic bit under the bonnet. Where they must have leaned over the car.
But in VW Durham's defense they were very understanding.
They have offered to replace it for free and also repair the stone chips in the bonnet and the stone chip on my alloys for free as goodwill for miscommunication

Added one nice Scirocco light from carstyle4u.com:

Well it would seem that the led sidelight units I sent back to China last year got returned last month..
They wasn't even signed for. Just got returned. Seller has ignored every single email and message from the day I said they had been sent back. So with ebay not interested and seller ignoring me I'm stuck with faulty units.

So today I thought I'll try and fix them my self and in the process extend the connecter cables and make a more tidy job so it's sealed.

No before or during photos but will post some afters tomorrow. Both tested and working now as they should. Weather was terrible so haven't had chance to re fit them.

Like this a lot just at €29 each it's expensive

Yes they don't come cheap indeed. But if you want to make a custom switch it's also very handy.
They deliver the complete switch with a relay attached and wireing.

Received the last of the gear i ordered that i needed to perform decarb process of the inlet valves and chambers.

Warned the wife I'll be disappearing into the garage for the full day this Saturday.

Had a good clean and a coat of the trusty Auto Finesse Triple then got hit by a stone on the A1 and need a new windscreen, £65 excess so could have been worse

So, after this happened to my HTAutos splitter after a year of having it which I thought was pretty good going ....

How was the fitment of that splitter? I also broke my ht autos one, does it use the same holes or do you need to make new ones?

drove her to work... because I could... and the last time I drove her was nearly a week and a half ago!

Booked in for lowering springs Tuesday. Then wednesday stage 3! :o

The fitment was very easy, doesnt follow the same holes as the HTautos but just get yourself 10 self tapping screws from B&Q, £1.30 and they have pre drilled holes! I put a few others in to make sure

Cheers Huttchy, it's on the shopping list.
