hi, the engine revs should be above normal tick over speed when cold starting. Once the engine has been running for 5 mins or so a quick blip of pedal should let the fast idel cam release. sometimes the black plastic pulldown unit splits inside and lets the choke flap move to much.Sounds like you ha...

hi,
vw probably call it a manifold/switch housing. It is where the hot water from the cylinder head flows to your heater circuit. Check to see how many switchs(sensors) it has before ordering. cheers

Hi,
Try easing on the handbake gently, if noise stops you no its the rear brakrs that need attention.
cheers

Hi,
I would be suprised if worn cv's would make that much noise. Try removing your prop shaft as this will eliminate any locked on vc issues winding up the front diff and causing drag.

Hi,
more likely to be your clutch master cylinder leaking, the bolt in the pic holds the master cylinder in place. you will have some fluid loss when removing and fitting new part. pull back your rubber mat/ carpet first and get ready with the rags!

Hi there,
It could be your fuel cut-off solinoid playing up. When the ignition is turned on the solinoid receives 12v and opens plunger. Well worth checking your wiring for electric fuel pump to.

hi, We are planning an off road weekend based at one location, which will enable drivers to have a full day and a half of driving. Nothing finalised yet but watch this space. Check these guys out who are in the N.Devon area.....looks fairly full if your worried about bodywork etc, but they may have ...

There is a business that re-builds the og carb...i'm not at work at the moment but I will see if I can find the details for you tomorow...i'm sure you could find them with a quick search.

I have had discussions with the manufacturer Interparts today, who have been very helpful, they do manufacture all the products they sell in China, but the factory ships in raw materials and they manufacture from scratch in house, they operate to ISO 9001:2000 which is a quality management standard....

you can't win here can you......I have tried to suggest a balanced view, taking in all the evidence should be applied rather than jumping to conclusions. I'm not running anyone down, its not in my nature to use a public forum to do that, I very rarely use forums for this very reason. However sometim...

Its interesting to note how many experts have written off the CV joint without any evidence whatsoever, it seems incredible that a company that has been trading for some time would compromise its market share by introducing inferior products on to the market. We have used this product on our own veh...

we do them, from the man in Switzerland....and we will answer the phone and take cards or paypal etc, we sell for £620 including postage, no core surcharge for worn plates we absorb this cost, just a simple exchange.

Count me in for this trip please, did a trip into the picos a few years back, awesome.....watch out for the wolves!! there are a couple of cool sites right up in the mountains that will make good base camps....or just wild camp, more fun. Can't wait, will be needing the ferry crossing as well if its...
