£10 switch off eBay!! Boom!! Lights on

Went to work this morning, turned in my lights. Nothing from the dipped beam. Everything else fine, sidelights, rear lights, main beam etc. Changed both bulbs, nothing. Fuses checked and both are ok. Number 59 & 60 Any ideas what else?? Could it be the switch?

It’s ok I got a garage to do them in the end £115 discs and pads supply and fit. Only issue is that on one side half the disc is rusty, obviously the pad isn’t touching the whole diameter of the disc, any ideas why??

Check the door gaiters full of wires that are bent 100’s of times in their life

Hello I’m about to order discs and pads for the rear of my 1.9tdi 2005 Sharan Could anyone tell me if there is likely to be more than one size disc like that front which come in 288 or 300mm please.

Oh sorry.... it kept telling me it hadn’t posted.

Hi guys Recently had my top mounts done. Only problem is when I press drivers window button the hazard lights flash. Also they flash when I press on the heated rear window?? Any ideas lol

Paid £30 for the joint. 33% off £70 to have it fitted. Nearside one needs doing too, I might attempt it.

Bottled it!! Hours labour £70 garage did it

Anyone in North London wanna hell?

This video makes it look good

How did you get on with this? I need to replace my CV joint. Can’t it be done with removing items such as the brake calliper etc?

I've tried locking it and unlocking it from the boot to no avail! Nightmare getting 2 toddlers and a baby in at the moment'! I'll try the battery disconnect method. Should I try to unlock it while the battery is not connected or reconnect it first.

I know an auto locksmith who can do you a remote fob or a new key with a chip. If the chip was missing it wouldn't start the car as mentioned above.

I've not tried the boot lock no.... I'm gonna leave that for now in case that locks too lol I need that access this week as we are away

So both my rear doors have given up. I've got an issue with the central locking anyway. I tend to not lock it, now both rear doors won't open from inside or outside as if the deadlocks are active. How can I open them please?? Lol

Ok cheers Paul.

Hi guys, sounds like my o/s drive shaft, or the CV joint is screwed. Should I change the whole shaft or just the CV joint? The latter obviously more work. Also gotta change the wishbones on both sides, any "how to " guides around. I did search but couldn't find anything. Thanks in advance

Oh ok, no wonder it wouldn't stay in there lol

Managed to get it back on, I'll leave it for now! Managed to get the window up but central locking still now working. Only when you press to unlock the hazards flash. There was one wire that was out, I'll attach a pic. I couldn't get it to stay in the plug so I taped it. Obviously not secure enough. How do I push it back in so it stays??

Yes, that seems to be the problem. The retaining O clip isn't in place. I'll have another look this evening I think. Since posting this I've found FAQ number 31 & 43. Hopefully I can get it back on as my window is half down ‍♂ Thanks for your reply anyway.
