      • a few weeks back i changed the oil (oil, filter, cabin filter, wipers), this and rotating the tyres is all the work the old girl needs these days.
        I'm really impressed with the low maintenance this car requires.

          Was it difficult to replace the DSG shifter?

            No, just need to push out the pin behind the trigger and the whole thing pulls up and off.

              • New coil overs today. Replaced the H&R lowered springs. Also new driveshafts and cv's. Big job but well worth it. Picture is whilst car is still on the hoist, hence gap. Anyone after a set of H&R springs, let me know.

                • Today I replaced the radiator fans. The small fan has not been coming on for AC for about 3 years now. I had it jerry-rigged with a relay so it was on all the time at 100%.
                  It is nice to have the variable speed back, the lack of noise and vibration is wonderful. Next up to replace the AC solenoid.
                  So this is not quite in line with my previous post

                            • Pulled the fans in preparation for replacing the larger one. Seems like it has come loose from the control module and is shaking around in the shroud.
