hey guys, no, there is no special add ons in my car, hes just plain and simple i am going to try and get the switches over the next couple of days, i will then get very clear pics of the wiring for you, thanks again for your help on this,

thats fantastic, i really appreciate your help with this!! my haynes manual says it covers petrol 1.3 - 1.6 and diesel 1.9 hatchback and estate models included special/limited editions covers major mechanical features of van, pickup and Fun models. i will go ahead and buy the necessary switches now and get back to you asap thanks again for this

its the 2000 1.9d pickup mate im good with wiring just not cars, im a bike mechanic, cars arent my forte, but if you're up for helping mate i'd appreciate that a whole lot

note - this is for the pickup so the rear wiper is null and void

right, with my stupid fat hands i seem to have snapped my windscreen wiper lever off and snapped some connections inside. i am looking into mounting some switches to the dash to replace these, only problem is im not great at reading car wiring diagrams. if anyone could please simplify what i need to do also what parts i need, i know i'll need a posh button for wash/wipe but not sure what exactly, any help would be highly appreciated here's a link to the wiring diagram http://s1198.photobucket.com/user/midianman/media/img006_zpsiyx2exru.jpg.html

hey guys, ive got a 1.9 felly pickup and love it, always asumed it shared the same engine/gearbox with vw's like the polo 6n etc but after driving one yesterday i cant help but feel like im wrong. for starters, reverse in the polo was top left, the engine was alot more responsive and was alot quicker, did 70 in no time and felt alot more laid back where as in my pickup it struggles to to get past 75 sometimes and really hates hills, it runs and drives fine just seems gutless, are they the same engine, is mine not running right? will parts from the polo improve my engine? cheers guys

I would but I don't get paid til Thursday and my light comes on if i go round a corner lol

Hey guys Will soon be selling my pick up as spares or repair but still have ½ a tank of fuel, how can I drain it as diesel isn't cheap Cheers Sam

Not my arb. Had it pop out before but defo more serious this time. Hoping to get round to it maybe later

Is it just a case of dropping the strut out and inspecting?

Both are identical..... Is it an easy thing to check?

as the title says, when i go over bumps i often get a clunk either side. went investigating today and found when the wheel is off the ground and unsprung weight the cup sits inside (pic 1) but when its under weight it sits proud, whats the cause of this, is it normal and if not what do i need? cheers in advance Sam http://s187.photobucket.com/user/midian-man/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20140217_130136.jpg.html http://s187.photobucket.com/user/midian-man/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20140217_130144.jpg.html
