managed to get the tailgate 90% fitted today,

for anyone wanting to do it, some bits are different

firstly the wiring loom works all the parts on the fl tailgate, how ever the upper brake light wire needs extending as they changed the location of the plug, speaking of the light that has to be new too and there £30

next the mount for the gas strut is different aswell it must be shorter, so i need to order that.

i currently dont know if the rear panel fits either lol,

im kinda stuck now till i get bits, so final adjustment will be done when they all arrive, the o/s isnt flush yet but the n/s is

here are some pics:

Filled her with £10 worth of fuel.

Sorted a boost leak

And got some protection down for the winter, Autogylm EGP and a layer of Colly 496.

It's the body kit. Like on mine

EBay number 400562808272

That's the lights. Went level 2 with Re gen labs. Its easy to do but you need to go through the fire wall to get to the fuse box.

Dpf and egr delete plus shark stage 2 map tweaked up a bit but lots of smoke, I run their stage 1 map for everyday driving, I think its around 205bhp on stage 1 if I remember correctly

Washed my car today; saw few small dent marks & a scratch on drivers door of my car. Its all because of my neighbour who parks very close to mine & don't care when opening his car door. i don't know what to do; i need to catch him while he is doing this. Thinking of putting some camera in my car & monitoring. Please suggest if anyone has some idea..

Tie him to a chair and proceed to bum his wife in front of him

wipe your c0ck on the curtains on your way out and yell "payback for denting my car!"

:D

*clearly the above is a joke.


Hopefully you'll catch him in the act and be able to have a word in his shell

Just swapped my number plate bulbs for some non error LED's and once again it looks like they are throwing up errors, got the bulb icon lit up on the dash.

Very quickly tried the turn off and back on trick to clear it but no joy :( really seem to struggle to get any non error LED's for this car.
