Trying to think of some wee bits and bobs I need to order from vw parts.

I need a new plastic protector/grommit for the autoleveler sensors, it's like £2. So I'm wanting to order a few bits and bobs aswell to bulk it up a bit but can't think of anything!!

Discovered a leaky washer reservoir today so made an appointment. Also ordered a cam follower, remote/key badge, oil and filter for the next change.

I keep meaning to get a new key fob badge and battery.

It's still on the original battery any it will end up running out on me soon  :sad1:

What battery do the remotes take? CR2032's?

Think I should probably change mine.

I've got an original 05 GTI and my batteries have never been changed in 7+ years. Both keys still working fine.

Opened the drivers door, got in, then thought better of it, and locked it up..

Got my alloys done a couple weeks back and getting the Check Brake Dicks warning on the dash so called my VAG Specialists and just nipping by tomorrow for them to fix the connection (went in last week but was too busy to put it on the ramp to do it, but checked and said everything is fine!)

Got 2 new front tyres today.

Was planning to fit heated washerjets, but lack of information and the weather sorta trumped me.

Not sure why this isn't as standard from the factory, Eddie-NL coded for me, good back up!
