I'd go for the fabia vrs ones - plenty of good write ups on mkvi forums about them, also cheapish and probably durable - seems to be the same part fitted to cupra anyway good enough for them - good enough for me!

battery charging voltage at idle

wouldn't worry then -
Removing factory fitted stereo from 01 octavia

think the issues is the standard vag wiring arrangement means that if you plug in an aftermarket stereo it can send 12V onto the k-line used for diagnostics - not good! -

i just used the pocket clip off a mechanical pencil - worked perfect first time! -
just done this using the metal clip off the outside of an old mechanical pencil - worked first time and much cheaper than halfrauds!

any chance of a diy guide on this for those who haven't undertaken a cambelt change on these models before?

-
this is a better price for oil if you are on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Long-Life-5w-30-F-S-Engine-Oil-VW-504-00-507-00-20-ltr-/300527392829?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item45f8d4183d

just keep your eyes peeled mate - they come up quite regularly on ebay - remember just about any vag brake kit will fit

pm me jimbo79

just to say the "lupo/fabia/ibiza" part was fitted today and is identical to the golf part - fits perfectly! so if anyone requires the fix for this they can use either of the following brake balance weight kit part numbers 6X0 698 998 or 1J0 698 998 could someone please add this to the part numbers sticky?

Reving but no change in speed?

G60 flywheel, GSF VR6 LUK clutch kit just add bolts - approx £200 for parts -
would be daft to scrap car because of these. i'd give it a decent run to see if that clears teh cobwebs, and then reset the ecu codes. then prioritise (but that cambelt does need doing)

its a tuned mass damper - needs to be correct weight, stiffness and damping coefficient © to combat the resonant frequency. not much too them, but need to be designed for the specific application.
-
will let you know - at £6 worth the gamble - can't imagine they would be any different across the range
-
just got a set for £6 brand new :p http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190477808770

get them from creation motorsport on ebay, will be cheaper

oilcan sounds liek oil pressure warning light - i'd play safe and get it checked by a mechanic - the 1.8T is notorious for blocking the oil strainer and if you drive it like that the engine prob will be written off. get them to check engine oil level is ok - if light is still on get it recovered (DO NOT DRIVE) to a garage and get them to drop the sump and inspect the oil pickup strainer.
