  1. Hi, what condition are the front doors in? Thanks
  2. A few shots of my vrs first thing this morning. Will get some more shots when I'm done giving the whole car a good clean Nearly getting a good reflection out of the paint
  3. Hi, silly question, but would you sell the centre caps from the vrs alloys? Managed to drive over mine whilst working on my car.
  4. Finally. All parts fitted and all fluids changed. She passed her MOT with flying colours. Only 2 advisories, so I am a happy man. All in she cost me £500 to get back on the road.. seems I dodged a bullet with her. I am now officially a vrs owner. Yurg.
  5. Hi again all, I have had a good read through the posts on the forum and just want to make sure that I am looking in the right place. I am still having some issues with my battery draining very quick. New battery in the car so battery is ruled out. My ABS and ESP lights stay illuminated on the dash. ( will check today if the battery light comes on with ignition) Could this be the wire that runs from the alternator ( the brown and blue one that everyone talks about?).. will get this checked tonight. Any other obvious things I should be looking at? thanks Yurg
  6. That's what I just got so I hope it is the right kit. My mate checked it over and he is sure it's right.
  7. Thanks, I thought it was a long shot.
  8. You guys have any idea if a polo 9N window regulator unit will fit the fabia?
  9. I will finally be able get some work done on my fabia. Was so happy when I got home from work and opened all the new bits. Full timing belt kit. Fan belt. New power steering hoses. And best of all.... my new rear 3 point seat. Can I get a window regulator from a polo 9N? Keep well. Yurg.
  10. Hopefully this will sort the Power steering. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Steering-rack-pipes-for-VW-Polo-02-09-/221664602686?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item339c3d6a3e I have found some signs of an oil leak on the left of the engine bay ( as you are looking at the car) I will take some pictures tonight and hopefully you guys can shed some light. Yurg.
  11. So it turns out the local car garage doesn't stock all the item I required, and they were allot more expensive than online, so will be getting the bits I need online. I lifted the battery today, and found that the power steering fluid was empty. I topped it up and hey presto, we have power steering. But.... There is a burst pipe, as the fluid was pouring out. I will get the car jacked up and start looking for the leak. Now the question is. Would the fact that the pump can't circulate the fluid be draining the battery over night? The battery is charging at 14.4v. Thanks for the advice about the oil, I will make sure I get the right oil. And hopefully it stays where it's meant to be. Cheers for now. Yurg.
