    Rear Tailgate Lock and Vacuum pump question...

    Thanks for all your replies. When I lock the car with the fob, the doors lock. If i go to the Tailgate however, I am able to operate the micro switches, meaning the boot can never be locked...The car is a 1999 F\L so maybe it is like a pre facelift( Analogue clock but hidden washer jets etc)...

    Leaking like a sieve...

    Hi there Does anyone know if there are any online pics of the way the trim that fits over the pollen filter and also the tray that sits above and behind the filter, as I can't get the trim to sit tight on the window and therefore it leaks due to not making a seal(thats my theory anyway). I've...

    Rear brake upgrade

    Is the hose fitting easy to get hold of? I assume you have to re-route the handbrake cable? Probably not a good idea to do this without upgrading the Fronts though...

    Rear brake upgrade

    Hi there Sorry for jumping on this, but are you saying I can fit 300mm rears to my S4 F/L with Trigs brackets? That would be quite handy! I assume there's some Handbrake mods?' Thanks In advance

    S4 Not turning over yesterday, now fires first time...

    Thanks that'll be the easier bit to do. Is there a relay apart from the solenoid in the starter circuit? just seen a thread about a relay becoming loose, but if so I doubt it would have started today.

    Thanks Kev. Can you change the switch without changing the barrel/lock?
