I thought along the lines of 1.9 but the garage say there are too many other items to change / uprate so will stick with 1.6.

Not a good start to the new year for me as the engine on my van now sounds like someone has put a bag of spanners in it!! I took it to my local garage and without taking it apart say it needs a new engine as the bottom end and crank are sh*&&£d. so a replacement is required. Any recommendati...

Hi just thought i would let you all know i have found some brackets. VW main dealers sell them at Around £8.

Where can i get bumper brackets, i have a 1989 westy with the big fibreglass bumpers. i need the brackets that attatch the bumper to the lower rear side/corner.
I have asked JK, they dont do them.
Thanks
Andy
