I took my GTI for a puncture repair, walked out with 2 new tyres and was told I'll need new discs and pads soon :(

Very busy day today, finally sorted the noisy diesel sounding engine. Had the cam chain, tensioner and cam adjusted all replaced.

Just as well really, as the chain had stretched a few mm and the tensioner had really visible grooves in it.


Then to top it all off, fitted an edition 30 front splitter.


So much for keeping it standard!

Finally got around to replacing every single interior bulb with a led item - also relocated the ProBT microphone to the front upper light binnacle so it is totally hidden
Footwell lights were the biggest pain but the car looks lovely now bathed in nice clean white light!  :drinking:
