Ok did the Driver's Door seal as it was leaking, fix worked perfectly also it seems to have cured a door lock solenoid that was clicking, it could have been me properly connecting a loose connector or maybe the inside of the door has dried out not causing a short!

Im thinkintg of getting a Bluefame mate did it sound nice? Was gonna get Miltek but they aint loud enough and Piper sound sweet but I dont like the tailpipe design,
Blueflame are good and they used to be the exhaust to have on this forum, but I think sometimes forums can be fickle.
If you want Loud then go to Dan at Longlife he will build you whatever you want for £400, tbh I would prefer to go him than any off the shelf system,

I dont want mega loud so its boomy but I wanna be able to hear it and sound nice. Ive had powerflow exhausts years ago. You got any pics of yours mate?
With a custom exhaust builder, he builds it to suit the sound level you want and with the tailpipe you want, I think your best bet is to look on youtube there are loads of clips or lcrs with a multitude of exhaust compilations?

Put it this way if you go to Dan and are not happy with his work I would be amazed and it would take a very good reason for me to visit anywhere else for an exhaust system.
Yeah I know mate I have had them a few times. I have looked on you turbe and theres a couple I like the sound of just didnt want it boomy on the motorway and the one on my Saxo VTS was proper boomy
So just an update for my own service record, changed the handbrake cable and found the hb mechanism on the rear NS caliper had seized, managed to free it off and it is working again now, but also found out it is a common fault and there are some springs produced by VW to remedy it, part number escapes me but they originate for a Touareg iirc!

My exhaust hasn't matured yet, so won't sound the same, but have dug up a few on youtube for you!
Main problem I have is I am a crap cameraman, I own a crap camera, and finding somewhere in the middle of london to do a driveby is a little tricky
Hey mate,2 of the clips on here are my car
Where's the edit gone on posts, don't seem to have the edit no more
Fitted the new forge piston today and I'm impressed makes a noticeable difference, but wonder how long the rubber seal will work being compressed all day long?

Little bit narked off today, I found out the garage that installed my tip have put the PCV puck back in the wrong way, reinstalled the correct way and instant improvement!

Yes it's unbelievable to be honest, I don't think there has been a single mechanic I have been to that hasn't cocked something up down the line, that's why I do most of my own work!!!
