What did you and your MK2 do today?

[Masterkm]

At midland VW for a brake fluid change to ATE super blue and getting my injector seals changed hoping the blue smoke on startup gets fixed

Got the wingmirror covers fitted, was a gift. & you don't have to remove the glass to get the cover off!

Because we are car enthusiasts, not just a single brand lover. If you get a new car you dont hate every other car thats on the road... and completely forget about a car you used to love. Oh and we probably contribute a lot more than most people on here too. I spotted a K1 so I thought I would ask if it was anyone here, where's the harm in that? Why don't you go take a look in the readers ride section and share your views there too, probaly 25% of the threads are not even Seats! #SeatCupraNetPolice

Lol

Engine rattle was fixed by 'adjusting the air intake pipe'
Clutch noise was fixed by 'refitting the clutch pipe'

I ordered a BCS exhaust for my Golf today and can't wait for it to arrive at the end of the week.

 

[anarchy1515]

What happened to not modding lol but I suppose you've got to keep busy some how

 

[Marshall]

Tell me about it.
So far I've had it mapped and lowered it and had the wheels refurbed!!
Now exhaust but that's it.
Don't want to make a big deal as people might not be happy as its not got an S badge on.
Shhhh

 

[Magicsky]

Who that too buddy?

 

[Marshall]

Just a comment that was made further up the page mate.
Saying why people who don't own mk2's anymore still come on here.

 

[anarchy1515]

[sfmk2.]

...

I think they'll polish up nicely when I do it properly ...

Good start Jarre! Keep it up, you'll have them looking like this in no time!!

 

[olitaylor07]

What did you use to clean them up?

Also what do people use to polish/clean/tidy up there interior on the plastics etc??

 

[bigbadjay]

Thats autosol for the exhausts (3 quid ebay) works a treat

For the dash etc AutoGlym vinyl and rubber care. Also excellent on exterior plastic trim, rubber door seals, mudflaps.... feels horrible on the hands though

More buftying this evening

My dad and I have a black cab, which I drive part time in addition to my full time job.

my mum & dad went to Wales over the weekend, So I worked in the Cab Sunday & Monday. i normally work in it on a Tuesday evening, but tonight I though sod it, i'll treat the cab to some Autoglym love

My dad's going to be over the moon tomorrow when he comes home, as he usually takes it to one of those £5 a time wash places full of Albanians

Anyhow, after a rinse, 2 bucket method wash, the cab's paintwork was fairly terrible. full of swirl marks etc:

this was typical:



so first off I used some Farecla G3 scratch remover on the most swirled paintwork with thewaffle pad applicator supplied:



After that, I gave it a polich with Autoglym SRP, some shots:





for a break between polishing and waxing, I gave the tyres a coat of Meguires endurance tyre gel, gave the widows a clean inside & out:



Then going on with the Autoglym HD WAX:




leaving me with exterior finish in no particular order:









then for extra measure, I cleaned all the interior out, did the cockpit & even did all the tupperware under the bonnet





hope he'll be pleased when he sees it!
