I'm undercoating everything, sills, behind the rear bumper, behind the front bumper and patch up underneath too.Good update loon - car is in the right place for it all to happen. You should waxoil it on the pit too.
Good to see progress on this again Willie. BTW I've still got yon carbon bit off the engine cover for you, if you still want it just ping me a PM and we'll arrange to get it to you.
Ha ha, you have me down to a T.Great update mate! As ever great to see you getting stuck right in and carried away..
Looking forward to seeing this all come together.
Cheers Craig.Wull, great to see you've been bitten by the bug again big style welcome back bud.
Not sure if only using the top bolts on the headlight would work particularly well on the road, the unit would bounce about a fair bit. How about the grommet idea we talked about a few years back? Can't believe that's been 6 years since the fmic went on, talk about time flying!
Cheers Phill, looking forward to seeing your car back on the road and hearing your feelings of it tooGood to see you at the car again mate, as you know mine will be out soon when i get the head back.
Nice update there pal
Would you say it's possible to remove the Air Con without pulling the front end off with some wiggling and swearing? What belt are you going to use now, one from a non AC Golf? It's on my to do list as its free and I'm trying to do a bit of research before I crack on. Let me know how you get on with the inner gubbins!
Dan, did you have your oil filter off at the time?Ape you can remove the air con with out taking the front off I did , also you want a belt from a 1.8 golf non turbo
Dan, did you have your oil filter off at the time?
I seem to remember this being close to the back of the radiator.
Ape, its no big deal to remove the front end.
If I was to do the air con removal again I'd do it the same way.
To get all the air con pipes out you need to remove a fair amount of 'stuff' as it goes under the offside engine mount and round the back of the brake Master Cylinder.
Go on pull your engine out, its thearoputic
You have got spell check then, ha ha.Ah I see, I'll have a dig around and see what can be wiggled and where.
As for removing the lump, it's therapeutic when done in a garage, not on the driveway. Done that before now
Keep the updates coming bud
You have got spell check then, ha ha.
Updates won't be coming thick and fast for a few weeks but perhaps some purchase news will.
Funny you should say that about the Diff. I have a few thoughts but will see if anything interesting comes up. I now have 2 spare O2M gear boxes.Sounds good min you planning on diffing that spare 02M as well?
Any spannering you want a hand with, geez a shout
