i never thought of using xp, i have windows7 on my laptop but have it with dual boot into xp as 7 won't work with my vag software, glad its sorted pal

my turbo has the number embossed onto the casting, not sure if the VF's have it the same way

i have my turbo timer on the voltage screen at all times so i can monitor the state of charge, i did once have a brand new battery go flat over 24 hours, turned out to be the new amp i fitted, the remote wire for the amp was earthing on the bulkhead when the stereo was pushed into it's cage, this left the amp on over night and caused a drain, just a possibility, if your alarm is the sigma unit there is a thread on the forum with the details of how to input codes for various things

happy days, glad it's sorted, may you enjoy the car as it's meant to be for a long time ;)

welcome aboard fella

welcome aboard fella, this is gonna seem a bit repetitive but i'm of no help with your problem either, there will be someone surely lol

superb thread so far pal, kudos indeed

ah yeh, mines a GF, i didn't know the wagons and saloons differed to be honest

a mate of mine has a uk classic 99 plate with a vf22, my uk 97 has a td04 and i think the td05 is the import sti one, i was always of the belief that the vf was the same as the td but an after market buy as a replacement

ive just bought a couple of gauges for my 2 gauge pillar pod that was given to me by a mate who has got a 3 gauge pod on the dash boost gauge oil pressure gauge gonna start fitting the pod tomorrow ready for the gauges arriving

i told all the neighbours if i win i will buy them all new homes as i will need theirs to convert into garages for all my cars

is there an indication light on the scanner tool to say if it's getting power? my obd cable has a blue light on to say it's receiving, as the power comes from the socket in the car and you've tried 2 tools on it and neither work i wonder if it's a problem with the socket

it should be easy enough to spot if it's driving about, not many red classic about at all, i would assume if it's for joy riding it'll be at the other end of the country as it doesnt get picked up atraight away by the plod, will keep my eyes peeled just in case

that's cool info that, i've been fed miss information for years about oil so now i have a confirmed correct set of info, great post, thanks Tim

Welcome aboard bud, I'm sure anythings possible, if you don't mind me asking, do you have zero use of your legs? I only as as a mate of mine, sadly now gone, he had a massive accident on an autobahn and lost his right leg, he loved vw's and was adamant he was going to get a mk2 golf gti, they only come in manual and as it's a hot hatch the gearing would have been different in a box from something else, he managed to get it converted to hand controls for accelerate and brake, same lever on the wheel with a push pull feature, would it not be possible to do this for your situation, might be easier

Well I have the same set of clocks in the garage that are on eBay now, if you want a spare set of clocks to dismantle we can sort something out if you like?

Well I missed the original post so I'd just like to say a big congrats to you both on your wedding day, glad you got sorted and we'll done to the couple for the car, very very kind thing to do, if I'd known about this before I would have contacted a newspaper to cover the story, provided of course all parties involved were happy with that Again big congrats guys, hope you'll be happy for ma y years to come

Things is too, with the first galaxy from Samsung you can still get apps on it that will work, an iPhone 3 is only use full as a music device now as all the apps are gone from the app store and the software is out dated forcing you to get a newer one, and my biggest bug bear was the freezing, the iPhone used to freeze up about once a week and there was nothing I could do but wait it out, with other phones you can remove the battery, and in my ownership of a single iPhone I got more freezing up than with all the Android devices I have or had combined

I took the bulbs out of my clocks and removed the green rubber caps off the bulb, makes the dash a lot brighter now, I have the clocks before yours with fuel and water one the left and right corners

Lol, sorry it was in the other thread, I thought it was here Zonda Aurora Corado Exige In order of age

Anytime pal, hope it is something as simple as that for ya

I've had the car as a daily runner since Xmas last year the guy I got it off had it a few weeks of his mate before he got an insurance quote, before that his mate had it for 4 years, 3 of which it was running as it is now, I'm not to bothered about the car, if it fails it gives me scope to get a white saloon I've been wanting for some time, if it keeps going until I have some decent money coming in I was going to get a cdb and build that to a custom spec then paint the wagon white and fit the new engine and bits

It's alright, they don't even see it in the window, been pulled before and told I was displaying it incorrectly, I have it at the top of the windscreen in the centre and upside down, after I argued and told him it doesn't state where in the window it's to be displayed or which way he went over the entire car with a fine tooth comb eventually giving up as I just made everything into a lesson on his job lol

That's cool, I was wondering where you'd got that as never seen any in that shape size and style before
