So, Dropped the car off at R Tech 2 and a bit weeks a go for Niki to have a play with.

you can make anything fit anywhere with enough money.
I doubt the holes line up as a lot has changed in front end mounting specification since 2003 when the 8P went through it.

I have full VCDS myself so on top of that not a single fault.
Ill get haldex and filter done then. Confuses me that the manual says 60K yet everyone else says 40K and a few select peoples say 20K !

I have inherited the car from my mum who has had it from new and now spending my time fixing it up.
The gear box has a faint whine and i...
