My TCS was playing up last night so whipped my wheels off to reveal a cable has rubbed through on part of the tyre because it popped out the cable guide. Greaaaaaat

Took the glove box out to fit new blower motor and resistor pack.
Fitted fan but the resistor was wrong. Proper one coming tomorrow hopefully.
Whilst i was there i removed the 6 disc changer as thats not working (cartridge keeps popping out).
Took that to bits but couldnt find the problem so will be on the lookout for a replacement at some point soon.

I was hoping the same but it was a pain to get enough downwards movement to get the old unit out with the driveshaft bottoming out on the subframe. Either that or rust as the old one went all the way down apart from the last 3mm and then wouldn't budge down or back out for ages! If I ever do a mk4 platform car again I will take the hub off first and do it off the car.

Waiting for the rain to stop so I can fit the replacement kick plate I got for a tenner off ebay.

I broke it about twelve years ago but never knew what it was called or what the part number was. 1M2863484B for anyone who's interested.

I can't begin to tell you how much that cracked part has bothered me over the years. I even remember how I broke it - I was taking off my jacket while I was crawling in traffic and while I was shifting my weight I trod on it and it split it clean in two.

Please someone tell me I'm not the only person who gets so worked up about these kinds of things?
