My alhambra has a toothed adjusting nut which is worn. cant seem to find one to buy. it locks into the metal plate. on this parts pictures it looks like number 16. but i see no teeth on it. any ideas. looked at attached picture from vag site.

My V reg 1.9 tdi alhambra's power steering belt needed changing,which my friend has done. He showed me the toothed nut that grips onto the adjusting plate. it was really worn but filed it a little for more grip. Anyway what is the name of this nut?? Explaned to seat dealership and they dont know what i mean. Its a nut with loads of teeth on it. :unsure:

Just bought some tyres on vectra rims, would they fit? be great if they would.

Correct. i had a friend look,and it was off. will put in the garage tomorrow, thanks.

Car has been no probllem at all, but got to traffic lights and pulled away in 2nd? other gears are there except 1st and reverse? gear stick is very loose. Any ideas. thanks

....or to keep the middle row side seatbelts out of the way when all the seats are out in "van" mode! Thankyou :rolleyes:

Noticed 2 latches just behind middle seats either side on inner wings mid way up.. what are they for.

Thanks. never seem to get replys off the seat site.

just bought one of these and wondered what cars are the same for parts? would be good to source other makes for bits.

IIRC Remove the 2? pozidrive screws located in the top of the cluster (over the clocks) - cant remember if there are any more - anyway the cluster then pulls out - at the back you'll see access to 2 x 5w bulbs - similar to the rear parking bulbs - easy to change. Although my memory is vague I do recall it only took 2 or 3 minutes in total to do. Thankyou. I do own a Seat If that makes any differance. I wonder what things are differant between them.

My bulb on V reg tdi does not work on rev counter,but ok on speedo. How big a job to sort this out? thanks.
