Hi All, Just went down to Watford yesterday to see a black manual Z32 TT. Took two hours to get there from Cambridge, and then I couldn't find the place I was going too so it was an additional half hour. I was really starting to wonder whether or not it was worth the effort, and thoughts like, "After all this is it going to be yet another crappy Z with scratched paintwork and a dodgy interior?" kept going through my head... especially because it had started raining after I left home and just kept getting worse. Anybody know why it always rains when I go to look at cars? Seriously I've never been to see one and had the weather remain dry. But one look at t…

Anyone who can get to north wales and help me ( well i will have to be dogs body lol) to change a heater matrix in the next couple of weeks ? Can look forward to a steak meal, a piss up :duffer: and paid hotel for the night for whoever can help and there missus :dance: . Any takers ??

When i put my foot down and accelerate hard i get a puff of smoke from the exhaust. Doesnt do it gently excelarating or normall driving just when i floor it, doesnt keep smoking just for the initial few secs. Any ideas ? :)

Anyone ever tried this? Saw it in halfords, the can says for professional/off road use only, but surely if they (as they say) glow the bulb colour after whats the problem? Just wondering if this stuff is any good...I quite fancy the rear panel being dark...

Did an oil change today, took the nut off and only about 3/4 of a litre of oil came out. I have checked the oil before but never had the impression it was low like that. Put the new oil in (theres a sump leak) and the ticking stopped (it was previously thought this was fuel injectors), when we turned the car on there was smoke coming out of the left exhaust. It stopped when the car warmed up. Seems like it could be something quite bad my mate reckons, damage by a lack of oil. Theres now a certain rattle which my mate says sounds a bit 'cammy' at certain revs when you wind up the engine Any ideas anyone?

I just bought some second hand alloys. They're nice but have little bit of corrosion on the edges of the rim. They look like these rims are removable - they look like they're held on to each wheel with about 12 recessed bolts (maybe so they can be removed and refurbished / replaced if they get curbed??). I took the bolts out but the rim wouldn't come off. I gave it a few bangs with a rubber mallet and tried to lever if off gently with a screwdriver. But it stillwouldn't come off. Any idea how to get them off - the wheels are Oz F1 Cup?? Or do they not come off at all? Cheers gents. :dance:

Saw you driving around the corner of Shackerdale Rd. at about 10.30 Sat morning.

Is it possible that a AIV in need of cleaning out can produce a chemical, not quite petrolly, smell in the car when idling? I ask because I can't find the source of this problem :cry:

Guys, i had a warning light come on that i aint seen before?, i was doing 70 ish mph and put my foot down to overtake someone (yes i was on a motorway, the M25), and after a few seconds the 3rd light in from the left ( left warning light cluster between handbrake and doors open), came on. I slowed down and after about 5mins the light went out, but the car now runs like crap, it sounds as thought its missing a beat when you accelerate, the light is still off. Have not checked the ECU to see wot it says, but have checked the plugs, all ok. The only mods i have on the car are:- aftermarket air filter (apexi), cat back exhaust, and a turbo timer. The only other prob that …

Hi, I noticed that your sig mentions a Strosek Rear. From the pic it looks like you went with the boot skin only? Do you have more pictures as I am thinking of doing the same, but with a spoiler over the top and I wondered how it might all look. Where did you get your bits? - Direct from Strosek?
