    PS3 - Totally Un-impressed!

    Its a pointless argument pitting the 360 against the PS3. Both consoles games are all ported other than exclusive titles that are made for that machine so are better than ported games. As for Modern Warfare 2 its a 600p game and was ported to the 360 and PS3 from the pc, they use 600p (only...

    Drivers door not opening from outside.

    Had exact same fault a week ago, had to climb through passenger side and open the door from inside like you, I thought maybe it was the lock barrel and it didnt engage the door handle so I`ll be monitoring this one closely

    Driver Information System not working

    Fault found, appears that the Reset button on the stalk no longer works. I removed the fuse for the cluster and upon inserting the DIS screen lit up and I can scroll through the list but cant do anything with the reset button. So guessing the next thing to do would be to replace the stalk...

    Cup Holders!

    If you are talking about the double spring up cup holders by the handbrake, get them from stealers, I got mine from them and paid 22 quid, not bad considering the ******** ones annoyed the hell outta me by staying up all the time and cosmetically looks a damn site better when you can have em flat.

Commenting on how its best done with timing belt and to be honest thats only 20k old, and to clarify I know its deffo not the reconditioned turbo (essex turbo also give you...

    New turbo fitted but still the noise remains.

    I dont know what type of tensioner is used tbh, I was hoping some of the more experienced guys on here could tell me. According to the guy that replaced my turbo he told me audi had a fault early on with these engines due to the chain tensioner failing, I just hope it doesnt get that serious...

    New turbo fitted but still the noise remains.

    Just had a turbo replacement done today after purchasing a refurbed unit from essex turbos which I have to say was a great service and a very good package according to the garage that fitted it. Car has ooommmph now and has power delivery that is smooth and strong. But, my problem now is that...

    pics of my 2.8 quattro

    Tbh it looks like its black to me, but if it is black I would suggest getting a wax finish that makes the paint look Wet and not matt, it kinda looks black at the front and grey at the back (Photo 5)

    Autoglass

    Had mine done by lad in a van and it was a well done job, even got to see how he done it and he was very careful not to cause any kind of damage to the dashboard. On the issue with depot my mother didnt have the same luck as me, it was badly fitted and had a leak on passenger side as she found...

    Sandwiched in a 5 car prang

    I felt the same mate, I had a the same car delivered to me on the morning of the day I was getting my own motor back. Tell you what tho I really did love that 30mins of fun in the Golf GT TDI before going to pick my own up. Amazingly quick for a oil burner :)
