Re: Water ingress into frunk and boot

I've been trying to find my boot leak for a few years now. I've cleaned up the rubber seals and used silicone spray to refresh them a little. I've tried taking all of the boot lining out and spraying it with a hose pipe but nothing seems to get in when I try. I wonder if making a line with some chal...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] CT26 boost tail off.

I read 1 guide that used a boost controller that would increase boost at the higher rev to combat some of the drop.

Decent flowing exhaust and a decat does help hold the boost level a little later.

I believe Paul woods at woodsport has done some work on the final drive changes. Believe there was even a write up on it.

Re: AC condensers

Yup different connection for the different pipe sizes

I got mine shipped from America via rockauto. Ended up paying more in postage than the radiator itself.

Small body repair advice

Some **£" hit my car while parked in a car park, they hit the front number corner, smashed the side light, scuffed some of the paint and took a small chunk out from above the sidelight. The insurance have gotten nowhere so I will probably end up repairing myself while the weather is nice. Any a...

Tcb parts are also worth a call, they didn't have any in stock last time I tried. Both work on the basis of sending calipers to be rebuilt once they get o...

Re: [Mk2] [NA] seat sag!!!

oh nice, i wanted to sort my seats out as they feel like they need some fresh foam. I guess this is much cheaper than getting someone to replace the full foam section.

Maybe the double sided tape is the better option, its what was on the car before the badge fell off.

I think some sort of padded double sided tape was what was used before.

Re: Fit front bumper badge

I did consider glue, wondered if there was another option (i have a habit of sticking myself to things)

Will find some more normal glue.
