Oil and filter change done today, Volkswagen Crow Road, Glasgow have an offer on at the moment, 5 litres of oil, oil filter and sump plug for £35, decent price. Not sure if this offer is on throughout all VW branches???

Also fitted new cam follower and O ring, rear wiper and new LED sidelight bulbs (supplied by DamoP)

. Passenger side is easy, driver side took a bit longer.

I got a box (4x5L of Quantum) from TPS for £72 two weeks back, seems like your dealer is passing on the saving

Broken rear spring, so started the homework of suppliers for OEM springs and dampers for the MOT

DANBOY66 · December 15, 2014, 04:01:07 PM

Is yours mapped? Mine is just over 168k and still not slipping but am considering a remap in the future which will probably result in needing a new clutch & dmf!

Changed all interior lights for LEDs and also installed LED number plate lights too :)

Well not me but @Eddie-NL yesterday he tirelessly worked for 12 hours doing the following on my car.

1. Rear reversing camera
2. White mk6 clusters
3. MK6 steering wheel
4. Door warning lights
5. Coded in the mk6 climate panel
7. Put the wiring loom in readiness of heated leather seats going in.
8. Replaced the Can Gateway
9. Replaced the steering wheel module

Phew, think that's it!

Cheers Ed, top notch jobs.
