I have been using my back doors normally since I got the car and all of a sudden my back passenger door will not open from the inside or out. When I pull the handle from the inside the lock comes up, only to go back down when I let go and it will not open at all. I've even tried to unlock it...

Hi there, I bought my 2004 LCR 225 the other week and there were a few minor niggles with it after I bought it. One of the problems was that the OE stereo sounded dreadful and wouldn't play CDs properly. The cause of the poor sound was down to the tweeter speaker in the drivers door not...

I was just wondering if anybody could help me with a noise im getting from my remapped 110 ASV TDI engine. Its on the N/S, seems to be coming from quite low in the engine, and it sounds like a "whirring" noise, like a belt or pulley, but there are no belts on that side of the engine. I did a...

This is just a brief insight to the workings of the variable vain turbo used on many vag cars. The model shown here is a KKK turbo which was fitted to an ibiza FR tdi 130 pd. It was removed due to a broken compressor wheel which was caused by internal hydrolastic bearing failure. The turbo was...

It was time for my Ibiza to move on. Been a great car over the last 3 years, reliable and economical, just a little slow! She appears several times on my web-site and has been the guinea pig for testing many car-care products. :) Anyway it needed a good pep up and a few "little issues"...
