    How best to 'work' the engine?

    After reading a post on here last week where someone was told that they weren't 'working' their TDI enough, it got me thinking. Five days of the week, my car (PD130) genuinely doesn't go above 2000rpm, or below 55mpg journey average, so it's hardly getting thrashed. Presumably I should be...

  4. Wipers sometimes stop, won't work again until I leave the ignition off for a bit?

    Not sure how to explain this. Often when I get in my car, my wipers will judder very slightly and then stop. I can either 'fix' it by getting out and moving them manually with my hand and hoping it starts working again, or just by leaving the engine off for 20 minutes or so and coming back to...

  8. air con takes ages to work plus funny fan noise

    My bloody car mists up really easily and clearing it is getting a right pain. The air con doesnt seem to work all the time and there is a funny whirrin noise from the fan in the dash when the windscreen blower is on.

  16. R32 slave cylinder, does it work in a six speed box?

    Have done a little research and found out the r32 clutch has the same dimensions and fitting as the stock six speed clutch. The 1.8t flywheel has to be used as the r32 flywheel has too many bolt holes. The only issue is the diaphram springs are different and think they might have to be used...
