Waiting for golf to be recovered now as one of the bolts is seized.

The roads are crap. The invoice is going straight to the council!

Replaced my faulty inlet camshaft control valve  -N205- as the electrical connection was snapped. This meant that the signal was intermittent, and on high boost the car would go into a kind of semi-limp mode!

was tricky to get out and ill need another screw as i dropped it in the engine bay somewhere. tricky one to fit that, what with a metal static pipe in the way. thanks VW.

Do all US cars come with a hand grenade fitted at the front of the engine? Cool feature!  :laugh:

Removed my bashed door skin and fitted one I found on ebay for £75. The colour (tr) isn't a perfect match, but it'll do until I get to the bodyshop.

What's the use by date on the oil?  I'd grab a few at that price.
