What did you and your MKV do today?

[Tfsi_Mike]

Cleaned my steering wheel. It wasn't actually in too bad a state but looks pretty darn good now - no shiny bits on it whatsoever, just a nice black matte finish 

What products you use please :)

Any use?

Any good?

Taking my time to bed them in. Done only 60 miles in them so far. The ride does feel firmer and you realise/remember how much the F1s softened the ride. I remember when I had F1s all round for the first time and felt there was a "wallowiness" and lack of feedback that I didn't have with the PS2 tyres. The advantage of the F1s were going round corners in the wet - the PS2s were more likely to break traction whereas the F1s kept on gripping.

Alloys refurbished by wicked wheels today with an awesome result! Pics to follow when I finish work

Just ordered 4 Michelin Pilot Super Sports to replace knackered Bridgestones and PS3's. Hoping for good things, hope I chose the right tyre over the Goodyears! Bring on some grip!

Fitted Timing chain and Tensioner, fuel pump lifter, Eibach pro kit and Heko wind deflectors 
 Quite good considering i should have been working on other cars

I came from F1's that were only 10 months old & 25% worn. You won't be disappointed!
Had my first track outing with them last week, far better than F1's there too.

Is quite normal for tpms to alarm if the tyres have been removed / refitted. Check the pressures ad reset the tpms by holding the button

How easy were the deflectors to fit? I would like some, but not sure which ones to go for??

^^^^ Climair FTW and uber easy to fit, 5 min job and 4 mins of thet is drinking your cup of tea admiring your new deflectors.

Only went for the Heko ones as seen them on a previous car
As MC71 Said very easy but you might have to double the fitting time if you have a 5door

Seemed the pressures on all the tyres was about 3psi lower than I had them set at before so that must have been it. Inflated and reset

Received and fitted two CG Lock's to my seat belts ready for next weekend on track.

Got a bargain from eBay so I'm happy!







Also thoroughly cleaned my track wheels before drying and sealing them before their inaugural outing next weekend!
