Hi all, I’ve recently bought a golf gt tdi on a 56 plate, has a BMN engine in it. Started fine the other day and as soon as I attempted to reverse out of the drive it cut out, and hasn’t started since. Had a timing belt and water pump 4 days prior along with a service. Plugged it in to a code...

I have an s3 8p on a 62 plate, it’s just hit 50k Miles. Mate of mine reckons I need to do the cam belt and water pump now. Is this right?

I’m running stage 2 unicorn software too so I’m in the same boat. I’m sure it’s rick who said there wouldn’t be a need for the valve, just required the hpfp internals.

Is the rs4 return valve a worthy mod? I’m running 366bhp with the autotech internals but was told not to bother with the valve?

I also use this adaptor. Been perfect for a month but now won’t connect to my phone at all. https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/263139107662

Been offered a set of 18 inch genuine rotors off a friend, lightly curbed all need a refurb. What are they worth refurbished? Without tyres Luke

My glovebox lid has split so it doesn't push up properly anymore. I've got a new one on order but can't seem to split the lid from the glovebox itself. One side is off its the damper side that's a nightmare. I've exposed a pin holding the arm in but have no idea how the pin comes out. Any ideas?

Ahh okay! I'll do that instead, mine just seems to move about with it not been held at the front and I don't like it haha.

As the title says, I purchased a used revo intake (500 miles old) the other week, fitted it apart from I don't have the heatshield bracket that holds it to the front of the car where the original intake was bolted. I have an S3 8p. Has anyone got one lying around? Longshot I know! Ice attached...

Looks wicked on these wheels!

Evening all. Looking for a recommended paint shop around Stoke or the Midlands. Got a couple of bits on my s3 I could do with sorting, someone decided to open a car door on me the other day! Thanks, Luke

Also recommend midland vw, had a clutch done on my s3 there. Cheapest place by a country mile labour wise and a top job.

ValetPro Diluted 1:10 in a 1 litre pump spray bottle, leave 5-10 mins. Hadn't been washed for 5 weeks and looked like ***

Unless it's more towards the engine side of the box?
