Re: Can not get into gear when engine running help!
thank you for all your replys. i took it into a garage in the end. it turned out to be the springs in the clutch. one had come out, and most of the others were broken some with little bits missing. but the car got a clutch kit so included the bearing. its amazing how good the clutch feels now!

Re: [Mk2] [NA] outside edge of rear tyres worn down really quick
it was the tracking, its been checked and realigned but not by one of those 4 wheel alignment tools so will get it in very soon as ive now got a new pair of tyres and they have got to be fitted ASP so i will get the car to a place that does 4 wheel alignment to get it checked to make sure its right.
