MK3 Random Thread

Does anyone know of a good independent Volkswagen servicing place located in Melbourne, Victoria.

I have found a few flaws in my mk3 Cabriolet which I wouldn't mind fixing

I've had mine serviced at Volkwerke in Greensborough, not too sure how far that is for you. Always been quick and reasonably priced I reckon. Would always call me to confirm if anything differed to what was agreed on initially before going ahead.

Does anybody here run a catch can? Is it possible? Is it worth it? Is it a placebo?

Anyone know where I can pick up a new brake light switch? Or repair mine? eBay ones are ~$50 posted and I'll have to wait.

I only have brake lights 50% of the time, not good, cheers.

Just changed the one in the Mk4 same as yours $8.80 from http://www.uniqueautoparts.com.au in Melbourne but post wouldn't be much as its small.

Possible, yes. You will have a cleaner intake and throttle body. Zero power gains in though, so can't really be seen as a placebo?

What's your budget? Cabriolets use the same coilovers as any other mk3

If he wants cheap then recently a shop in the UK started selling coilovers for a tad over $400 shipped.

I've got some heh heh Spring rates are adjustable. I called them and specified I wanted 7kg and 5kg rather than the 6kg and 4kg it comes standard with. They can always be swapped out if you change your mind which is cool.

Thanks all for the replies. Honestly speaking I am looking for a decent set since these will be on a daily driver.

With that being said, this is the second time I have heard BC Racing come up so I'll check them out.

Anyone have experience with K Sport?
