Hello.
Pleased i found this site, seems very helpful! already been searching alot and looked at a few bits and bobs concerning the new car.
we got a 2005 tdi (75) on a 54 plate (odd i know) in akoya silver.... 88k on the clock and were chuffed with it!
got a couple niggles but most things do and with our budget were happy with it!
few issues are
missing washer filler cap
sun visor clip snapped
drinks holder stuck in
missing fuse board cover
airbag light on (will get it scanned and see what it says, might be that the drivers seatbelt is very slow to return)
missing roller parcel shelf and false floor
gives a little screech from the starter just after the engine catches (sticking i tad i think)
other then that is spot on, ordered some car mats off ebay and put the feelers out for false floor ect and will then get a boot liner....
had its cambelt and pump and service done 7k miles ago which is ace. i'll do the servicing on and wondering which oils to choose.... i know the spec but not the exact weight?
i would love a manual but owning a mac makes it hard! any PDF downloads about?
also how do you remove the sun visor clip?
going to remove the radio(how? cdplayer) and look at the cup holder...
get a cable and scan the car (which cable do i need? same as a mk4 golf per chance?) then wipe it and see if it pops up again.
the starter i dont know, i hear there a mare to remove so may live with it for a while....
thats my plan of action! i'm happy working on cars ect so it doesnt phase me and looks a nice car to work on!
anyway, i've rambled on enough!!
cheers!
Andy
