    Brake noise

    I'm sure I've seen this problem before, but can't find it anywhere - when nearly to a complete stop, there is a noise from the pedal?? which sounds like "boing" It's hard to describe, but it's as if a spring is being released.The noise is only at the last couple of seconds before coming to a...

    Breather pipes

    Whilst changing the cam cover gasket on my 1.8t, I noticed that the metal breather pipe from the front to back of the engine and the rubber connector to the n/s of the engine block and cam cover were absolutely solid with gunk/****/oil.Having cleaned them out totally, I could only clear so much...

    Oil leak

    Hi, Before I remove any parts at all, any suggestions as to where an oil leak from o/s rear of engine might be coming from? Is it likely to be rocker gasket or pipe or something else? Engine by the way is 1.8t. Thanks, Tim.

    Suspension arms?

    On full lock, I have noticed a definite "dragging" of nearside wheel across the road - could this be a result of worn suspension arm bushes? I am planning to replace anyway, but confirmation of problem would be good. Thanks, Tim.

    Suspension arms

    Thanks for info, I have seen a set on ebay for £250 + del. which is claimed to be quality - I know Meyle are ok, but should Febi or Lemfoerder be safe bet? Plenty of sets for around £140 which I will avoid.Interestingly, Allgermanparts are priced up at about £380 but the website says price will...

    Cheers Markey, I didn't have time to look properly, so are you saying the disc is just a push fit onto hub?

    brake upgrade

    Took a quick look at my brakes today before starting upgrade to 312mm discs, and thought it looked as if the disc on my 2001 b5 sport is only fastened to the hub by a central nut, and not by a screw next to one of the wheel bolt holes - it looks like the disc would therefore be different to the...

    Exhaust manifold

    Have heard good things re. Autobahn FMIC, but has anybody any experience of the Autobahn exhaust manifold which claims to give a good power increase, and seems ridiculously cheap at around £130.Is it worth considering using in conjunction with a full exhaust system including sports cat?

    Anti roll bars

    Damian, what kits include front and rear for B5 2WD saloon? It seems front bar on its own will increase understeer, yet I can't find a kit which has front and rear, only for 4WD - what's the point in front only?
