  1. Striking never works, but I feel compelled to go out, imho working to rule (especially in my job) would cause far more disruption!
  2. I have seen images of Octavia's running 20" rims so rim diameter will not be an issue, what you will need to remember as Rob says to keep the same rolling ratio and also look at the offset, use this site to calculate all the parimeters.
  3. 259bhp, from stage 2 will be a Tfsi, I would expect torque to be between 270 - 280lb/ft.
  4. Are you saying you used to be a Twoc'er fekin car thief?

  8. Some of you who look in on the Tech Shed forum may be aware I was buying a new laptop, well after some top advice from members I ordered a Dell Inspiron 15R N5110 Laptop from the Dell Outlet, I spec'd a similar model on the main site and the price was around the 500 quid mark, so paying £335 including delivery from the Outlet was a no brainer. Anyway to the point, the laptop arrived within a couple of days, however on initial start up I noticed there were a cluster of dead pixels in the centre of the screen, they were only noticeable on a dark back ground but the damage was there never the less. So I ring customer services expecting a battle due to the laptop being from the outlet etc.................how wrong was I? After 5 minutes of humble apologies I was transferred to the tech support who again apologised, normal procedure is to return to base for repair which can take up to 7 working days, however as it was a new purchase the guy organised an engineer to come to my house the next day (today). So today the engineer rang and confirmed an ETA, (he arrived 15 minutes early), 10 minutes later new screen in all working fine. Normally people can only be bothered reviewing goods or services if they've had a bad experience so I thought I would share my experience as I believe strongly in positive reviews.
  9. Now I'm really cheesed off!! New laptop arrived today (with media center) so after set up etc I tried to configure the xbox.....first attempt, failure, 2nd attempt, success! Or not, although everything is set up on the media center right at the last stage it won't connect!!!!! I feel like Dr Allan Grant from Jurassic Park everytime I touch technology, please help?
  10. As above, PCD 112, the same as the MKV/VI Golf, MKII Audi A3(8P), Audi A4 (not sure which mk, but definitely 2000-08, MKII Leon etc....
  11. Looks nice, but I prefer the old ones..... :p
  12. Just checked the Golf which has the same PD140 engine and the battery is a Varta 70ah. However, if a minimum of 61ah is a requirement, this is the one fitted on the vRS (petrol) which is exactly them same size as the Golf one.
  13. I think they are around 45 quid to buy (but don't quote me on that) I can't imagine its a big job, but then you never know!
  14. Is this an absolutely confirmed recall on coil packs for pre-2008 Tfsi engines? I only ask as I have just had a call back from my local stealer and they have said that the only recall on my index and chassis number was an engine control module which was done in 2009 (news to me)! If they are fobbing me off I may be forced to name and shame.......!
