Can i just say that using brute force on a door card is tantamount to disaster...they can be broken and are expensive to replace..about 90 odd quid on ebay...If you take care and take your time as with any job you undertake, then there is less chance of damage or anything breaking. ;)

well, you need to get the door card off to reach the speakers so i think its fine as it is.It is always worth searching with different keywords if you don't get all the results you are looking for.

I'd love a hand Bleeno...have pm you :D :D

Welcome bassman, to the wonderful world of the Galaxy. :D (I'm just the welcome mat..someone else will be along soon enough to help you out :D :D ) Glad you found us. :D

Sung to the tune of 'Please Release Me' by Tom Jones: Please, release me, let me go.... Cos' I don't crunch you, any more... To miss first gear would be a sin... Release me, and let third gear slide in... :D :D :D That is so funny....LMAO...Now wheres the rest...HEHE :D

There are lots of pics on this site and everyone at one time or another has posted a pic of their gal....If needs be i can move them all into one thread rather than post them again.Hmmmm...... Nik is right..posting them on the forum IS the best way rather than an external site hosting them. And you a teach Nik!!!!tut tut tut.....He put it in his post. :ph34r: :ph34r:

Well..I'll def get lost now!..LOL...But for a F and B..I'll make sure i don't!.mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..yum.!

But how do i get that silver plate off....thats the thing i need to do..

Can someone please show me where all the vacuum hoses are please?

Now this i found intersting..under types of TDI. 1.9 litre 4-cylinder 115hp "PD" - again similar to the A4-type engine but with the "pump-nozzle" injection system. Although the peak power is only slightly more than the 110, maximum torque is much higher and the engine has lower exhaust emissions. VW intends to gradually replace the 110hp models with this engine. Not available in North America, reportedly because the exhaust emission controls used on this engine cannot be used with fuels containing greater than 50 parts per million of sulfur, whereas at this writing (1999) fuels in North America can have as much as 500 parts per million. Models with this engine have badges with a silver "T" and red "DI". The injection system is the "pump-nozzle" type, and the turbocharger is a variable-vane type. The lack of the injection pump mounted on the front of the engine is the obvious visual difference.

Turbo VNT mechanism sticking. This only applies to vehicles with a VNT-15 turbocharger ... most A4-chassis models including all A4-chassis models sold in North America, and all 110hp models (A3 or A4 chassis) sold elsewhere. (DON'T READ THIS if your car has a GT15 or K03 turbocharger because they operate in a COMPLETELY different manner.) Locate the diaphragm housing which operates the VNT mechanism (has a single hose going to it, extreme rear of engine compartment, buried down near the bottom right rear of the engine, hose connection faces STRAIGHT DOWN). Locate (by feel with a finger) the linkage rod which points straight up out the center of that diaphragm housing. While feeling this rod, have someone start the engine, and note whether the linkage rod moves - it should. Upon stopping the engine, the linkage rod should move back after a few seconds. If the linkage rod does not operate as described, get a vacuum tester (any auto parts store) and apply vacuum to the VNT diaphragm to see if you can get it to move. If it's seized up, there's your problem. NOTE: To prevent this from happening, DON'T BABY THE VEHICLE when you are driving it, and consider recalibrating the EGR system to reduce the amount of soot build-up in the exhaust. How does this sound,,is this the part i can see in the pics?

i keep seeing n75 valves, intercooler pipes, relay 109, pancake valve .... havent got a clue what they do but someone might on this site Maz..... I'm still reading it all at the mo..very good info on there.

When does the whip round start! :D :D Which part you gonna send me then Wasphouse?hmmmm........Engine? :D :D
