Re: Brake fluid reservoir

Thanks Blueshark that’s exactly the one I was after but no one has them in stock or available... I may just have to do the servo upgrade and mc and get a mk2 gti 16v reservoir... if they are easy to find lol

Brake fluid reservoir

So I’m in the process of replacing master cylinder and brake fluid reservoir as it’s badly cracked and I can’t seem to find a brake fluid reservoir anywhere... does anyone know where to get one from or an alternative that I can use? I’ve got the carb engined gt2 1.8..

Thanks

Re: Head Gasket :'-(

Nice one Nate, I think that may be the route I take, as you say needs must at the moment and if it goes completely splat then I can always drop the 18t lump out of the mangled A3 I have got rotting away. didn't know if I should be worried about all the gunk in the engine, and causing further damage ...

Head Gasket :'-(

Well after being off the road for 3 years I had to M.O.T the rocc as we've moved house and I currently don't have a functioning driveway, I wanted to do some bits and bobs to it before I got it back on the road but they'll have to wait. It passed requiring a new tyre and a brake light bulb, though ...
