wing indicators
side repeaters tend not to effect the speed as they are alot lower wattage than the main indicators

Speed Sensor...
power steering leak is usually either the big hose going to thebottom of the pas pot or the high presure line from the pump to the rack (infront of cross member) to bypass a mph converter you just need to remove the exixting converter and rejoin the old wire, its only 1 wire, yellow i think

It's official!
ah i see, i have the same wheels you see, mine are 9 at the front and 10 at the back though, just managing to squeeze a 345mm disc into mine so you must have some monster brakes

Big wheels on a zed
i would say an 18 looks spot on for a lwb, a swb can carry off a 17. anything over an 18" will be a bit of a compromise in terms of performance and ride comfort imho

02 sensor checking
i used to get around 25mpg from my tt auto and that was overfueling. i wold expect around 30 on a run. have you had a compression check, what is your ignition timing set to. was the thermostat changed with a genuine item, could your brakes be binding a little. just some food for thought

update on my swb restoration
well ive not done much outside on the car recently for obvious reasons, but i have done a few bits. no pics sorry so ill just do a quick update and some more pics in the week bought some of carmads new swb skirts. ive had a quick offer up but not really tried to fit them, sorry for the delay mate but ill get a few pics up ive also done a few more bits of interior including a new centre console cover, handbrake and gear leaver gaiter. just started my big brake conversion today as well, picked up a brand new set of brembo 4 pots on sunday and im going to be fitting some 345mm discs so should be sweet, ill make a prototype bracket tomorrow to see if they squeeze under my 17's but initial offering up looks positive, ive got access to a few set of these calipers so if anyone is interested i could be persuaded to make up a few sets if anyone is interested (as long as this is allowed by club rules) the discs are only card cutouts at the moment but they look amazing filling the whole wheel out. i dont think i could fit any bigger inside my wheels though. ive got next week off work so i hope to get some real progress. the plan is to have the car back on its wheels at the front and have the front end just about done so i can turn the car around and do some bodywork to the back and passenger side.

Suspension info please
they may fit but im sure the damping and perhaps the spring rates wont be ideal

Hmmm new car dilemma
we have an a3 1.8t and i have a bora 2.8 the bora is a far nicer drive, the golf will be better on petrol and may be faster on paper but the v5 engine aint far off the v6 in mine (170bhp vs 201) and in the real word the extra torque makes for a more relaxed drive and quicker in the real world you will always get more for your money with the bora
