Cheers for the quick reply nate

just waiting on the spring to arrive now and i can get going!

Hi all.

Ordered some bilstein shocks off eBay the other day, listed to fit scirocco up to 1992 (mines a 1991)

Arrived today and the fronts don't look right :/

Should they look like this and if so where can I get the bit to attach it to the hub and the big cup the spring sits in??

Cheers ...

Problem solved then, ill get a couple on order, keep one as a spare! dont fancy the idea of one going wrong whilst im in germany next month!

Hi all,

How much should i be paying for a genuine rubber carb flange/gasket??

i have seen some cheap ones on ebay for around £15 but have heard bad things about them

also where is a good place to get one form? i tried going to my local vw place and they said about £60 :/

Cheers

Nope... didnt cure it :(

that said, the cars a lot more responsive now! goes like stink, but still has the intermittant idle problem :(

Lovely looking car that mate! Love GT2's in white, i wanted a white one but ended up with the complete opposite, Black!

Just got round to getting it on the emissions tester and it was running at 0.246 % CO so it was really weak :/ Got the CO to 1.024% which is well within tolerance (1% +.5) and she seems to start up perfectly for now and also hasnt had the idling hissy fit i sometimes get once warm!

Fingers crossed ...

Hi all.

Have an annoying problem with the rocco once its warm...

I start the car in the morning absolutely fine, little bit of choke and she fires up on the button, runs well whilst driving ect ect.
if i then switch off the engine once warm, she turns over for a very long time and then coughs ...

Ah brilliant, was just about to start a thread about the same problem!

Niiiiice! cant wait to see the finished product! love red cars haha

Right ok, Ill stick with the pierburg until i get some problems then, its not a daily driver so wont matter if it breaks on me ect ect haha

Wicked, cheers for that

Hi all,

Since i got my GT2 a lot of people have said 'are you going to slap a weber on it?'

apparently they give more economy aswell as a bit better performance, But which weber would i need?

Its a 1991 GT2 1.8 8V

Cheers in advance :)

Yeah the 2 previous owners were on club polo with my car aswell as myself so its been floating around that forum for a few years!

Anyways update on the rocco! MY sunroof leaks :( got in it to start it the other night and got a wet arse! :( BUT thats the 1 and only fault with it that ive found so ...

Nice man! Haha this threads getting overrun with polos!
