    Quality Minor Bodywork in the NW

    Just thought I'd put up a quick post to recommend a local scratch repair guy. He mostly does work for the dealers, Audi / VW and Mazda but also does a bit of work for individuals. A friend of mine had a 6-8" dent with broken paint etc on the rear arch of his MK4. He has done a quality job of...

    R32 ARB's. Anyone had any issues?

    That's good to know about the sleaves. It is these that have come loose from the bar on mine. I am tempted by the H&R though now. As they have the advantage of being adjustable, and therefore could set the front up a notch softer than the rear and therefore have a front bar that is...

    R32 ARB's. Anyone had any issues?

    Might be temped to give these a go then. A bit off topic, but I've been offered a set of H&R springs that are 2 years old for peanuts. Can you see any disadvantages for going for these over a set of new ones? I'm sure I read somewhere springs were good for 200,000m plus...

    R32 ARB's. Anyone had any issues?

    How do the setting work then? Surely it's the thinkness of the bar that dictates the roll?

    R32 ARB's. Anyone had any issues?

    Are they 25/21mm then? Any change to the ride? And what's the science behind thinker ARB's making it riskier in the wet? It is a case of the chassis no flexing as much and preventing the tyres digging an edge in? Would the quattro help at all?

    R32 ARB's. Anyone had any issues?

    You can get the R32's for £159 delivered. I wasn't to sure on the H&R's due to the thickness of them. The R32's are 23/19 and am I right in thinking the H&R's are 25/21 ? I understand they'll be better made, but I think there a bit too stiff and might make the car to unpredictable in...

    R32 ARB's. Anyone had any issues?

    As above really. Anyone who's fitted R32 ARB's to their S3 / A3q had any inssues with them? Impressed with them? I'm Tempted by the price, but as my S3 ones were shot after 50k wondered how they's hold up. Any opinions welcome...

    Replacing Bushes on an S3

    Thanks for the advice. Not sure what to go for now, I've been in a mates Golf 4motion with powerflex and that seemed a little harsh although he was running coilovers. I'm thinking with the Billy's and hopefully some H&R's the bushes shouldn;t be much of an issue, but I'm sure would last a...

    Routing IPOD Link

    I'm trying to route the iPod connector wire from my Dension setup so that it exits the dash in the tray under the heater controls. It looks like to get to the top of the tray I will have to remove the heater control panel. Any ideas? I've got an 2001 S3, with a single din tape unit. Any...

    Mint S3 + carpark =

    Cheers. I think I will give that a go. If they could pull it out and the plastic weld then smooth it over it should work out less than a new bumper and paint. No luck on the cctv though...
