picked up 4 tyres for £35 today, get them fitted then its legal,

got new door cards to fit, window motors to fit, interior blower control is f*cked, not sure how to fix that one, anyone know?
What else is wrong with it??

Paint looks pretty smart under all that crap Smile
Possibly resistor pack for the blower motor...does it work on full speed or not at all?
the fans work continuously at about half speed, but can't adjust the speed.

bits that need fixing lots and lots of cleaning, window motors and door cards replacing maybe a radiator, full service, front discs, tyres fitting then should be good to go
Woop ph2 Nile 6 ftw
still looks good for that money! Tongue
Welcome to the crew joe Wink
Blower motor is behind the glovebox, easy to do from what I remember of breaking my GTI-6

Looks a bargain.
motor works but can't adjust the speed, could this be the resistor playing up? some cleaner pics in a bit ...
Might be the resistor.. swap over another control panel?
I'll nick the resistor out of my sisters boyfriend next time he's round, lot easier than changing the control panel over
some grime pictures from today

I don't know why people buy nice cars if they've no intention of looking after them!!

bit of a shit picture but lights gone now, still coming together!

Looks fooking good for the money, i struggle to find accident damaged ones to break for that sort of money!

On you heater, It sounds like the contact is fu*ked inside the control panel. Just take the front off the panel off (dial part) and put a screw driver or a bit of metal across the contacts, if that works then you know you just need to replace the inners
That dash was disgusting! Good job on cleaning it all up Smile
nice cheers puglove hopefully sort that tomorrow.

just changed my insurance over so as of tomorrow I'll have this on the road Smile

for an extra £7 per month stoked thought they would proper sting me!
Extra £7? That's bloody good. Good to see another '6 back on the road Big Grin
Get some tax in the morning then change the tires and happy days Smile
looking good!

one thing, that pic of the filter, is that before or after you fitted it properly? cuz thats just filtering the cold air coming into the bay right now...
once you go perv yo wont want to go back Smile

Ha ha that's just to show the size of it, the bonnet wouldn't shut with it there! :p
haha gotcha! get a 90* bend on it and either aim it at the floor or stick it up by the battery
Looking loads better. Keep up the work mate Big Grin
This is what you should find under the control unit.

think its on standard pipe so heads towards the floor and bottom is bloted to gearbox, again where the standard should be I'm guessing, won't be too loqw like that then you don't think?

@ puglove thanks for the pics bud took it apart and the spindle had snapped, so popped a new cover in and jobs a goodun

tested my window motor in my mates car and the damn thing works!! just not in my car Sad
so anyone got a clue what could be wrong with my wiring?
tested all the fuses, not sure if any relays could be responsible or not though? or some dodgey wiring somewhere?! mirrors work kind of if that makes a difference
shouldnt be, just have to be verrrry careful in the wet, avoid all puddles! or swing it back up to the top if you drive it in the rain or are worried about getting it wet. i know a few of the '6 boys and the guys with '6 manis do that. tis what ill be doing when i get mine on too
Nice little bargain this dude Smile good luck with it.

The above is what we did on Matt's for the winter, I couldn't live with mine as low as some have them. Would make me nervous!
looked through some of the receipts and found original K&N 57i fitting kit and receipt, this says exactly how it is, plus its obviously been like that for years with no issues, the reason I say I refitted it was one of the jubilee's wasn't on correctly so was sucking unfiltered air.

also got a fog light out on that side so may add a cold air feed at some point, also got a load of thin sheet metal lying around so may fashion a heatshield also, no point getting loads of air in if its hot as feck!

anyway off to get tax and tyres, first day with the beast on the road Big Grin

Yeah! Move it up for winter down for summer haha

mine now has a scuff on it too, Damn speed bump rounds here are stupidly shaped!
fooking bargain!!!!

best of luck with it. as for windows not working, have you checked the door looms, notorious for going
my filter is blue! I thought it was brown until I cleaned it.

spent a bit of money today,probably more than the car cost, and did a bit of work,
new spark plugs, winns injector cleaner ( god knows if it will do much?) oil + filter, air filter cleaning kit, tyres fitted and balanced, tracking sorted, oh and tax so all legal just went for a blast lot nicer after a service, although not completely happy they sorted the tracking right, goes a lot better after cleaning the air filter too
