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

[Dyldo]

not technically my Bora, but fitted to my mate's Bora (with gorgeous 17" Sports that i am jealous of):-
Dieselgeek Six Sigma Short Shift kit - adjustment took forever
R-line shift boot - destroying stupid oem collar took ages, tough bugger he was
TT pedals - accel pedal is so big it fits over stock pedal and still needs glue
changed air con filter
swapped in some VR6 valve caps

And if that doesn't seem like a full day's work, we basically re-fitted out gokarts with new seats - and trust me, when fitting seats to karts it takes ages to mark them up just right. Fun day though.

over the past week i've fitted new rotors on rear - massive difference and fitted some federal 595rsr's on the front -- Wow. massive difference in grip.
next week hopefully order a 42dd a pillar gauge pod.

Lifted the rear a inch, car is now on 3x16"s and 1x17" after i found another nail in the tyre of the remaining 16" wheel
Photos of the sickest stanced bora soon...

Fitted vented wheel liner, cleaned out the epic build up of dirt and utter crap behind the liners & then proceeded to wash the .:R

I saw this in Trents photos when he removed his, too. Seems pretty common, i reckon i'll strip mine off and clean it all out. Probably drop 5kgs from the car.

Do you ever think someone might have it in for you? Either that, or do you spend your days driving round building sites?

Picked up some sweet OEM beige mats F&R for the Bora off a member who sold his ride ages ago. Woot

Mine are woeful and have the dodgy SCA thick rubber mats atm.

Dropped off my bora AGAIN to mother****ing Barlow ward. So they can fix the massive power steering leak
I filled the petrol tank did 300kms no more fluid!
I have gushes of hot air coming through near my feet, i jack up the bora to find a big rubber gromet by the steering missing. Thanks again Mother****ing Barlow ward not world
I still love the bora after all the **** iv been through. But its pushing me to sell the ****er. Last chance i think

Man your not having much luck with them sorting it all out huh !.

Guessing they just fix and get it out there to the customer who I'm guessing they normally think knows nothing and will just be happy to have the car back.
I know it has happened to me before. Had to take one back to have the runs in the paint sorted, the items they had used self tapping screws on instead of proper clips replaced. I guess it's just how much cash they can get from the insurance company / customer is all they are worried about. Which in some places leads to a lack of touch and finish. Can be hard to find a good panel / paint place.

Hope you get your car fixed properly this time mate.

Can you elaborate on exactly which "Barlow ward" you have been going to... theres a few BW dealerships, ie Mascot/Fivedock

Absolutely. Factual posts detailing what happened and without going into opinions of people/services are fine. Start to make judgements about the capabilities, etc, and posts will quickly be deleted.
