I wanna take mine out again, want to clean and paint everything while its out. lol.

CEL did turn out to be my resistors for the n112's, rock on.


Order a new vag com cable, 12.99 delivered from vagproducts.co.uk, new bonnet lifters (say thank **** matt lol), and a chrome oil cap like you got ryan.

Need to order those hose finishers today as well.

Pick up one seat tomorrow with some side mounts and a subframe, and hopefully my harness should turn up this morning.
