Had a scary experience at the w/e when the brakes failed at a T junction. We recently had the flywheel/clutch replaced, and I suspect air got into the system during the process. I've pressure-bled the brakes and removed a number of air bubbles and flushed it with fresh fluid. Pig-of-a-job. Had to remove the top of the air box and the inlet hose before I could get to the reservoir...

Folks - how do I change out the front offside wheel bearing. Just taken a look and found a rather large bolt head(?) rather than a nut/split-pin affair that I am more used to? Alan, Rotterdam VW Sharan 1990/From Holland

Can anyone tell me please before I go nuts, how do I separate the front face of the glovebox door from the rear. The two securing catches that poke out either end have disappeared inside the unit. Thanks

I am selling my Golf GTI 16v. I have owned the car for almost 5 years now and the car had 1 previous owner. The car is 100% standard, I still have the original Sony radio (but have added a newer Sony MP3 CD - which could be included for an extra premium). Vehicle details are as follows:

'89 Golf GTi Mk 2 I think perhaps I'm going mad - when I took my car for servicing I mentioned to the garage that the green dash indicator light for the headlights (not mainbeam) had failed. They couldn't find the light and questioned where it was. Now the car is back I've looked at the manual and seen that no such light is mentioned. Where I'm thinking of is the bank of 2 rows of 5 bulbs. The...

After taking my car to a stealership, the idiots have sprayed TFR onto the wheels, the paint on the brake disc hub has now started to come off, I can't claim under warranty as this is negligent care (albeit by the stealership) naturally the dealers are denying reponsibilty saying it is just natural, how and where can I get some paint to paint the hubs on the discs as they match the alloys. Thanks...

The window in my car keeps retracting down after the 'one touch' close operation. Someone has said there is a proceedure to reset the window electronically, is this possible? If so what is the sequence? Thanks in advance.

I've got a Mk2 Golf GL 1.8 Auto(1990). Recently had a carb replacement - now has a webber carb + manual choke. My fuel economy has never been that great, but I swear it has got even worse! I get maybe 300-350 miles from a tank, with a majority of motorway cruising (at 70mph) and some town driving thrown in. Could I have informed opinions on how to improve on the current situation. And before I...

My golf (MK2 digifant GTi if you're in the dark) is behaving slightly oddly. There's an intermittent ticking from the engine, and today at 45mph in fifth the oil lamp came on, which was rather worrying as it should have had plenty of oil in it. Pulled over, checked the oil, and there was plenty of oil in it. Now, do I have a buggered pressure sender, and an intermittent ticking noise, is the...
