Happy days then innit
Took my Car up to Mij Exhausts in Wasall to hopefully get the backbox removed with a straight pipe with a cupra R tip to be quoted £150 +vat. errr no thanks as i swear other have had this done cheaper.
Spotted where some ****** has key'd my passenger doors
That's gutting mate i had mine done a year ago i touched it up and left it, not paying to be fixed them for them to do it again, pointless.
Bar-stewards!
i hate the people that key cars through jealousy (or at all!)
some 'orrible person did it to my audi a4 last year, why?!
Today, i Cleaned camshafts, under camshafts, sump,(about half inch of gunk)
(maybe that has something to do with the 6 year gap in the service book...) replaced oil pick up/strainer, oil filter, re sealed sump, new cam cover gasket, removed bonnet liner.
boy is it noisy now! Haha
If you like dv noise, it's a must!

It was actually yesterday but only just seen this thread lol. I programmed the windows on my tdi to go up and down using the key fob.
Was thinking of removing my engine cover,just a bit worried about clips,was it easy to do,& will it go back on ok ?
Cheers
Easy enough mate, get a new gasket from GSF first though mate, only a tenner+vat, the only tricky bit is that it doesn't come off (mine didn't) unless you bend one of the (I think) metal
vac/ breather pipes to the back right of the cover.
I didn't know where to start with the gunk, I used an oil extraction (pump up vacuum) thing... And when it did its thing, I loosened the rest with a screw driver, tried to not drop anything,, then poured a little oil over it, extracted that (to pick up the last few bits) and I did the sump after for good measure,
(Three holes in the back of the head go down to the sump)
Hopefully yours isn't as bad, I shoulda checked service history before I bought her! (Some mechanic I am lol!)
Any more info, just ask
Got the facelift bumper on properly, washed and waxed, fixed the N/S front door seal and swapped the sidelights over to a set of superbright one
