while it was still wet i smoothed it over.

Re: [All] [NA] Very annoying STEREO PROBLEM HELP PLEASE :(

if its been bodged - i would personally say it will be a bad earth or a live that isnt secured properly!

just re solder/connect all the connections that are already there.

it will take you about 30 mins to do and i'd put money on the fact it will work!

yes the ecu has been changed. and so has the passenger side wiring loom. also i have noticed that the clocks are burning when the ignition is on. a friend of mine looked at the connecter blocks in the passenger footwell and has said the wires dont appear to match up. could this be a dash loom issue?...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Oil dipstick housing

about 1/2 way up the housing there is a right angled knuckle (as the pipe bends)

its there so you can belt it with a hammer!! - then just twist it around to line the bracket up! :thumleft:
