Ok so I left the car into a local indy and got him to have a quick look over, he didn't address the whistle noise because he got distracted by a chirping noise under the bonnet, something I was going to ask him about anyway, turns out my alternator belt is flapping about and needs a new...
Hi,
Just wondering if any of you can help identify what's going on,
Just recently i've started to hear a constant strange whistley hum while driving my 2006 2.0tdi.
- It doesn't sound engine or turbo related as putting the clutch in, changing gear or revving the engine has no effect on its...
I tried vinyl wrapping and wing mirrors are a complete B**CH to get right and you cant do them as one clean piece leaving a seam which isn't ideal. I did mine with matt black plastidip followed by pearlizer and am very happy with the result, it gives a lovely texture and so far has proved very...
Hi guys, apologies if I should have posted this elsewhere but I was just wondering who you guys in the South West trust to service your cars? I've just moved to East Chinnock near Yeovil and am looking pointed in the right direction. I've googled but each place seems to have mixed reviews...
I like the blanked off look when you remove it, I had mine off my old mk4 gti...however I have completely decided against taking it off my A3 for the simple fact that I depend on it way more than I did with the golf. For some reason the A3 seems to kick up waaayy more muck off the road :/
Same thing happened me, I trusted a mate to jack the car and he used the sill... A good bit of spray-on underseal will keep it protected. You don't see the dent unless you're walking up a hill with the car parked sideways lol. I've noticed a good few cars with matching dents actually
I have to opt out :(
I'll be on the ferry to Pembroke this time next week for my move to Somerset! Gutted!
Have a great day up there everyone, I'll keep an eye out for pics.
@Sebbie - Yea it was just the black plastidip I got, here's a closer image of the pearlizer in action. You might notice that the finish isn't completely even. I found the pearlizer quite difficult to use, although I have pretty much zero experience in spray painting anything so maybe I should...
Hey man, no worries i'm a bit of a novice myself but trying to learn as I go along. I took the wing mirror covers off the car. If you do a google search you will find some info on how to take them off, however the info I found was a bit lacking in detail so here is what I did:
- Using the...
It has been too miserable outside today to get pics and I've a 12 hour shift tomorrow but I'll throw some up when I get a chance. The pearlizer can be tricky to get a completely even shade but if you're going with black they should turn out really well. They will be matt with a slight texture to...
