Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

power steering suddenly died on me, had a good workout for my arms every time i drive my pog.
went to a workshop, the guy took one glance at the steering warning light on the dashboard and without even looking under the bonnet for proper check, told me i had to replace the whole steering rack. then the next day he called me telling me i 'only' had to change the power steering pump. obviously i was suspicious of his no-proper-diagnose solution and had to consult my fellow pog owners. luckily a couple of them had a similar problem before and suggested me to go for a second opinion and check for loose grounding in the engine bay.
went to another workshop and confirmed loose grounding and blown fuse to cause the problem. so after tightening loose grounding and replacing the fuse (7.5 fuse in the fuse box on driver side), all is well.
some workshops are just too lazy. pfftComment

VW: it aint just a car, its a way of life
There are few things more satisfying in life than finding a solution to a problem and implementing it

and 5/100 (of course!)
Haven't weighed mine but they claim about 6.2 kg (another site says 6.9). Eddy's 17x7's are just under 8kg.Originally posted by pog View Post
I would have liked the white/blue for mine but for some reason, the black/red was SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper (even cheaper than the plain colours) so I went that route. Strangely, the red/blck is now the most expensive followed by white/blue and then the plain colours are the cheapest (as you'd expect).Last edited by kaanage; 20-03-2012, 11:14 AM.Resident grumpy old fart
