What fuel tank do I need?
I need a new fuel tank for a GT2 1992. Can you settle this one? Most of information I've had is that they don't vary beyond the fact that the older ones were a bit smaller. However, when my friendly garage called up about this one www.vwheritage.com/vw_spares_Fuel-Tank- ... geToLoad=1 they were told ...

Re: Just quoted £630 to get car through MOT - any point?
Cheers, I'm not going to a dealer though. It's a local garage in a back street that just happens to specialise in Volkswagens. They might not necessarily be the cheapest (quoted me about £300 to replace the clutch), but they do know their stuff. I've taken the car to other garages in the past, and ...

Re: Just quoted £630 to get car through MOT - any point?
Cheers for the advice guys, Mr Funk, yup, Kent VW are brilliant, really know their stuff. We're about to move about 30 miles away and I'm still going to be taking the rocco back to them. I didn't know there was a local club in Kent? (btw, thanks again for the window mechanism a few years back ...

Re: Just quoted £630 to get car through MOT - any point?
Thanks for the quick responses! The £630 quote is just to fix the brakes, shocks, etc, etc. That’s before we start thinking about the clutch and gearbox. I should probably add that the garage I take it to is Kent VW, who are great. I’ve been taking it there for about 5 years or so and I don’t think t ...

Just quoted £630 to get car through MOT - any point?
I've just been quoted £630 to get my much loved 92 GTII through the MOT, and I'm wondering whether it's worth it.... :crying: The car is in great nick generally, engine is sound, and it had a full prof respray last year (looks mint :vcool: ). However, it has done 160,000 miles, the clutch has no ...

Re: Anti Roll Bar - do we REALLY need it?
a good set of Anti roll bars imo are worth more than lowering springs... more body roll = loss of grip on one or more wheel = less control at high speed cornering = :ire: :help: :crying: out of interest, is it front or back that has fallen off? Thanks for the responses. Chaps - it's the back one ...

Anti Roll Bar - do we REALLY need it?
My anti-roll bar fell off yesterday - the side brackets have rusted away so the bar was dragging along the ground at the ends. I've just taken it to the garage, who say they really struggle to get replacement brackets so havejust taken the thing off altogether. They reckon you don't really notice ...

White smoke from exhaust on idle?
I noticed this morning that when my car was idling, there was huge amounts of white smoke coming out of the exhaust. I hadn't driven it for several days, but my drive to work takes 30 minutes, and it was still doing it when I arrived!
Any ideas?

Re: Mark 2 sunroof seal
I had the same problem. My sunroof is a britax. There should be a code number written somewhere on the actual glass. I googled it and came up with a shop online selling replacement seals (can't remember the company though :blush: ). I sent them the old seal, and they matched it up. Utter bugger to ...
