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

[Cookie28]

Ok thanks for that Dylan I remember you saying when I first posted that it might be that and now I'll just have to think about finding a new one or getting this one "fixed" haha

Edit: dylan would you happen to know what inlet/outlet size the standard cat is??

i had my car on a hoist for other things at the time and my mate gave it a wack and could hear it rattling around inside.
if you have a hoist or a proper jack and some axel stands see if you can get under there and test it, should be mid way along the car, like inline with the back of the front seats...?

All right I'll give it a go when I next get a chance but I've got my half yearly exams starting on Thursday so it might not be for a while damn HSC

[dylan8]

ummm not idea... think it was the same both ends...
my exhaust guy actually had vw bora in his book so just found a generic one to match the inlet/outlet and length. from memory there is a difference between the 2lt, V5, V6 models too so make sure its to suit a 2lt

Sunroof and water leaks

In the quest to find my water leak I have:
Pulled out the rear seats, the boot trim and discovered a little water in the corners of the boot are ( the ones under the tail lights).
The passenger side sunroof drain pipe wasn't even connected
Thought I'd have a rest before I remove the head liner

[Back Door Shenanigans.]

Installed my new tails

No problem thanks for your help Dylan

Well....I took the head liner out. It seems that the front sunroof pipe is detached, put through some line trimmer and didin't pop out the otherside.
I'm tired, enough for today.

yesterday sanded out some minor scratches of the clear coat then polished the whole car. No more scratches

I lied......
When you lock the doors on the GTI, a little red light should come on top of the drivers door trim .
Started to pull the door trim apart when a wire feel through just dangling. Turned out it was just disconnected.
Reconnected it, now when I lock the car the red light comes on.

Serviced mine today and changed all the ignition coils over. Tried Nulon oil and it seems ok so far.
