Thanks for the advice. I didn't think to mention that the lambda sensor has been removed and a stainless exhaust fitted. I dont think this is related to my problem as this was done last may and no problems up until now. Sorry about that, Cheers Steve

Hi i have a 1986 westfalia joker with a 2.1 engine i beleive. Has been sat all winter. I took it for its first drive this morning and everything seemed great while driving. Drove for around 1 hr on dual carrige ways, Back roads and town driving with no problems. When i got home and parked on the dri...

Had the same dilema myself. After months off asking loads off questions on various websites and speaking to loads and loads off wheel suppliers i finally came to the conclusion that genuine t25 alloys were the only real safe option. If you have to have a wheel machined or drilled to make it fit then...

You can actually buy proper bumper/trim paint for this purpose from most car accessery shops and i have found it to be really good and not very exspensive

How about fixing it to the roof lining or making a bracket to fit it in place of the ashtray

Thanks for the advice i am starting to come around to the idea that they are correct now, I am going to have a 2nd go at fitting them at the weekend and get a second opinion from my mechanic brother. There are a lot of people that now an awful lot more than me about the t25 so i will give it a go an...

I have read everypart off that, Thanks for the link. This still hasn't convinced me that they are o.k. If the rears don't need to be longer then why do the fronts. It doesn't make sense. I am going to go with longer studs for my own peice off mind. I am sure mr baxter knows what he is talking about ...

Sorry to raise this subject again but i went to have my wheels fitted yesterday at kwik fit as i needed the tyres from my steel wheels fitting to them. I explained to the tyre fitter that i had concerns about the length off the rear studs. I supplied genuine vw front studs that i got with the wheels...

cheers keith that is exactly the info i was after

I have a leak on my gearbox, I beleive it to be from the seals around the driveshafts, Is it just a matter off removing the drive shaft and replacing the seal or is that wishful thinking. Does anybody know if these seals are still available from vw. Cheers in advance Steve

do you have a speedo for sale or have i miss understood your reply. If so does the mileometer work and would you also have a rev counter

I am a little concerned about the new face being accurate, I would like to change the clocks and get a rev counter to but i am trying to keep cost down as there is always something else to get, Its turning into a money pit.

does anybody no if it is possable to convert my kmh speedo to mph by just fitting a new face. If so where is the best place to buy the required bit. I am aware that the mileometer will still be in k's but not to concerned about that. I have also seen converters on motorbikes that fit on the cable bu...
