    Boot lid problem

    All sorted now guys was definitely water causing the problem, the sensor connection was soaked, dryed it out unplugged it for a day and it's been okay since. It was the bung letting water through cause of the cold weather. Sealed now though so all good! Thanks again everyone

    Creamy oil cap?!

    Sounds about right my coolant is slowly leaking aswell but I'm not sure if it's leaking inside the engine or outside as I can see a few drops around the temp housing... Don't think it'll be worth fixing the gasket if that's the case :(

    Suspension nut.

    I'm not very clued up with garages where I live, rang ETS they told me 140 for it which is double the amount! I personally thought they'd be cheaper. Is a vw/audi specialist worth checking with?
