What did you do to your Mk5 today?

[benough]

So the original floor sit on top of the foam and MDF? No gaps at the edges?

Sorry about the pictures as i had to load them direct from Photo bucket.
Yes i went to Clark's rubber bought some 8cm high high density foam placed it around the edge of the boot floor and cut the 7mil MDF to suite the higher floor and replaced the carpet over it .

No i used the carpet as a templete but only cut it 1.010 m wide other wise it wont fit through the boot opening.

Had a full set of Kumho KU31s (Ecsta SPTs) fitted to the oiler after a mammoth 80,000kms from the original CSC2s. AMAZING!!!! And they still had a good 2mm left i reckon.

I had them changed as I have a 5month old and figured a new set was a good saftey call. I am still so blown away by 80,000kms though, thats awesome. I doubt i'll even get half that from the Kumhos.

CSC2 are TW ~240? Khumo are TW ~320-360. I think you'll still get 80,000km again.
I bought some 2nd hand wheels with (supposedly stuffed) KU31 - They had 3mm left until the TWIs (4.5mm total) and it took 10,000km to wear 1mm on the front - rotated them but bad edge wear from the previous owners car has cause the cords to show through & I have to chuck them. I think I could have probably got another 10,000km otherwise. TWI is 1.5mm but I find that anything less than 3mm is pretty dodgy in the wet

80k? Was most of that done on the back of a truck?

[Dyldo]

honest long-haul highway stuff for about 75% and the other 25% is a mix of city driving morning and night for a good 25kms and 60kms of highway back home (I travel almost 2 hours each way each day for work, plus seeing clients all over town).

LOL my CSC2s lasted me 1200kms you must drive it like an old lady or just freewheel everywhere lol but good on you wish my tyres lasted that long. If you think the KU31 is good get the KU36s heaps better grip

I just installed a triple cigarette lighter into the compartment where the cigarette lighter plug is , had to change the power cable from the side to the rear and it fitted exactly now i don't have to keep changing plugs , for the GPS phone and reverse monitor.

Not today but yesterday drove back from Sydney. Anyone spot me? Hehe. Probably not as it wasn't driven around the hood.

Ouch... that's terrible. It's awful to see Jettas go this way.
Can you share with us what happened?

WHAT THE FLIP?

That is horrible! Ohhh the humanity...

I can only assume it has something to do with the P plate. (jokes, kinda)

And driving in the rain, you just have to slow down a little or this is what happens ?
