Leaking T bar seals

Hello all, after changing the doors on my 91 Mk2 Rev 2 NA T bar due to a rust issue with both, I now have created a new issue. The driver’s side seal around the top of the window now seems to be letting water in (never leaked before :roll: ). After trying for the past week to solve the issue with si...

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Replacement Wheel Arch liner

Dont think there is a replacement inner arch you will need to knock one up to weld in. Cambelt can be done with engine still in car but will be a pain in the ass. Replace the water pump while your at it. TBH if i was doing mine i would take the engine out as it only takes me 1 1/2 hrs to whip the e...

Oil recomendation for 135k Rev 2 NA

Can anyone recomend a good oil choice for my 135k Rev 2 NA? I dont want to spend a fortune.

The cars not going to be used daily, just weekends and the occasional track day.

I found Valoline Maxlife Semi Synthetic 10/40 recomended for older, high milliage cars.

Any thoughts :?:
