What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[SLAJ]

Turns out it wasn't the rivets:




I've got my hands on a MK3 VR6 02A - apparently the diff centres are interchangeable VWVortex.com - 02J/02A Transmission rebuild finished

Thats a good outcome. Were there any other symptoms prior to the "detonation" ?

bora is parked up.
rear passenger calliper finally stuck a little too well and I think has worn through the pad to the metal and is still holding on.
waiting on a few more parts to arrive thanks to Dubaddiction. went with new rear bearings too while im there so guess ill finally throw the drop plates in.

Until then... 6n race car

So golfs been off the road for about 2 weeks now. A loud rattling noise appeared and didnt sound the best! Pulled sump and found a tiny piece of plastic in the oil pick up but no sludge or anything else. Pulled off shell bearing but they were ok too. Waiting on parts from ecs thanks to tim at dub addiction so i can replace some parts. Going to do thermastat as its not that expensive. Rear main seal as I have an oil leak dripping from that area. Boost gauge just because hoping to get it all back together and try and find this rattle!

I replaced the left ball joint without too much fuss but failed on the right one. Rounded the nut straight out and just said **** it, a problem for someone else.
I'm over all the squeaks, grunts and groans from this old beast.

[JustCruisn]

Ball joint fixed, silence has returned to my steering.

I'm not 100% sold on them yet Anthony - might require a bit of fiddling to get the intensity even all the way round, which means removing the front bumper and the lights again. Might save that up for a day when I'm running the extra wires for the fogs etc.

Fixed the dreaded glovebox on the same day before I went away.



Also decided to tidy up my wiring retrofits ... (need to source some OEM cloth tape)



Oh, and fit new horns to give the car the "parp" it deserves. (pics to come when I get the bumper off again)

Saw your build thread and I'm thinking it's probably time for a build thread myself now as I keep adding things to my list and replacing broken stuff.

I had an LED interior light kit arrive from Ebay, also a 3" stainless down pipe, (seems good quality for a cheap eBay job. Circuit Werks brand on the box)
Also picked up a K03s from Gav and all the relevant gaskets to do the swap from k03 on my GTI.

Fun times ahead!!

Fit my blower motor voltage regulator/ thermal fuse assembly today so I have air conditioning again - just in time for the heat wave headed my way.

Which interior kit did you order? I ordered one and the quality is fine but the leds sent are different colours and I can't even replace all bulbs as they sent me not enough of one bulb and to many of another! Lucky only $15. I disputed on PayPal.

Also I didn't notice it was warm white. I guess I was just looking at the pictures.

Let me know how you go with yours.

Don't order this kit.
