  1. You can change the ignition starter switch on some. I did on mine and I think I had similar problems but along with other issues I’m not 100% sure. 1K0905865 for mine. Here is a pic of the old one out and stripped down.
  2. Sort of being lazy/sensible and not wanting to get everything out, jacking it up and all that.
  3. Brakes are wearing uneven and I’m going to rebuild the caliper but I’m struggling to find the piston size so I can order the correct kit. Anyone know? MK2 VRS 312mm discs.
  4. Kettle not so bad. I live in a soft water area, I’ve lived in very hard water areas and have seen the difference. The house is 15 years old and I would assume I’m the only person to have cleaned or repaired any of these types of things.
  5. No work locally that I know of. Not asked neighbours but I will.
  6. No tank. Fed from the street.
  7. Found this **** in and around the 15mm to 1/2 straight valves on my two toilets. Unknowingly I had already washed away a load in each cistern without really thinking too much into it and there is now a bit more in one of the cisterns again. About 6 months ago the taps all had varying degrees of slowness to them. Took the filters/diffusers on the end of each tap out and all were quite full of ****. Are these a water company issue or more my pipes. 14 year old house.
  8. Hi Could anyone tell me if these are put on from inside to out or outside to in please? https://www.lllparts.co.uk/product/audi-rear-bumper-breather-air-vent-flap-genuine-audi-3t0819465a/id/9421 Probably answered my own question now that I've looked at it again as I assume the rubber seal around the face as shown in pic is on the outside to seal it!!
  9. Would like some advice on my pads and discs. picture shows some old Brembo discs and pads. Both inside discs and pads have worn funny whereas the outside ones are as I’d expect. Any thing I need to be looking at or is this normal!!?
  10. BMN. Had the crank speed sensor replaced by Skoda about 1 year ago. no VCDS I’m afraid.
  11. Any ideas on my rpm counter. Up until today it would sit at like 6-800 rpm but now the needle drops to nothing. Works fine when driving.
  12. A while ago I noticed a bit of water in the spare tyre well, I have had similar problems twice previously I recall and managed to sort it but this time I have found lots of water in the actual subframe of the car is the cause, by just the amount of water in the subframe sloshing about and getting into the well. In the middle of the picture is a round hole, I can push a piece of pipe in there and down and suck the water out. 1 Month ago I blew and sucked it all out and threw it around a bit, blew the water out again and so on, also left the car open to dry and I believed all the water was out completely. I went away for a month so the car pretty much sat for this time with the only rain being a massive downpour 1 day after I left and someone giving it a wash and apart from the 1 day rain and wash it has sat in the sun for the full month, but today I put the air gun in again and there is loads of water. Obviously there are what I believe to be three possibility's here, 1 - I didn't get it all out, 2 - the huge downpour on day 1 caused it or 3 - a jet washer/washing it is causing it. The water is very clean and tastes clean. Has anyone one else come across this please. I have extensivly tired sourcing it by tracking back things like, bungs, seals, third brake light and so on and can find no water tracking. It happens on both sides but I believe the passenger side is just the excess from the drivers side. Car always sits on a slight slope facing downwards so after getting it all out I parked it the other way to see if this helped.
  13. Think I’ve managed to answer my own question and found out that it’s thermal pads.
  14. Hi. I’m repairing a radio that has had water ingress. I’ve cleaned everything off of the circuit board but I have come across something I would class as something similar to heat sink paste, it feels more like a spongy type substance but this could’ve been down to the water ingress. Pic below shows one larger area of the blue paste and you can see some which has fallen away from a little rectangle raised tab that is below and to the left of the bigger bit. Anyone know what this is please?
  15. Calm down mate only asking a question.
