    • While not a Polo, I replaced this chewed up mess today. It's good to have 18psi again instead of limp mode and 5psi lol

      • I got my GTI back after the engine rebuild/replacement.

        It was so good to drive after having a 77tsi for a week. The 77tsi sport pack was a lovely car, but nothing on the gti.

            • Washed using APC to get rid of the old sealant

            • de-ironised with Wolf's Chemicals deironiser to get rid of iron contaminants from paint and wheels

            • clay-barred (god that took a long time)

            • Lastly then two layers of Duragloss 111 sealant (one the night before and one the next morning)

            I think it was worth it

            Now that I've finally finished my Duragloss, any recommendations for sealants that makes white pop even more? I understand the paint will never going to look at deep and shiny as black but happy to try something new. In saying that, the Duragloss is awesome and great value for money.

            I felt inspired from you doing it so I did that today 4h+

            For claying I used Mothers Clay Bar Kit
            Polish was Nu Finish
            and wax was Mothers Pure Brazilian Carnauba Wax

              DAMN! Looks great! Are they real Golf mk7 GTI wheels? I tried to get them on my Polo when I had it but Tempe Tyres told me they wouldn't fit.

                'Real' Golf GTI wheels will..not..fit unless you do a pcd conversion... and it's madness to do that when it's just easier to buy the reps.
