I got some new windscreen wipers today.... the satisfying streak free silent operation gives me immeasurable satisfaction! 

I'm terrible for having to have my wiper blades in perfect condition. My rear one is well stuffed but I refuse to buy a new one as its going very soon 

back to the bodyshop for some touch ups :(

Managed to break the front seat sliding mech' today (or rather my daughter did) so off to the stealers next week. 

Gave the old gal a good wash, I would have washed my vRS if it wasn't in the body shop thanks to swmbo and her snow driving skills.............

Me and my brother replaced my faulty rear wiper motor today with my brothers old one from his 56 plate Golf S. its the latest revision C so hopefully no more random operation and the water pump works fine 

was getting a bit freezing tho. found it was better to put the boot cover on from the bottom up! just have to watch the top to make sure it latches over and doesnt trap tabs the wrong way.

He was trying to persuade me to de-wiper it but i like seeing out the back window. especially on motorway journeys!

gotta wait till next week for my mate to put the new door rubber on. and another mate to get some door lube from work....... drivers side squeaking like a biatch!

This may be of use to you.  I found it very fiddly.  Im taking mine to VGSuk to sort out.

Have seen this guide but unfortunately that bits fine so not sure what's wrong. 

I unplugged my rain sensor cause it was doing my nut it going radge all the time!

Best thing ive ever done

Picked up an N75 valve from the main dealers and booked in for the coil pack recall :)

Washed it...went to the GTG in town...briskly passed a cop in the S-curve leaving town...picked up the pace and got home quickly...b/c I saw him turn around in the rearview...;[...yikes
