The garage are paying though, right?

If it wasn't for them pesky kids...

Fair enough mate. Sorry for the patronising tone. You're right, MOST people can't notice the difference. I wish I couldn't, because it would have saved me a fortune over the last 20 years ;)

Well if your system can't represent the difference between 128 and ooh, I dunno, let's say 1,441 kb then I guess you're not into car audio so what's the point in joining in the discussion?

Not being funny mate, but if you really don't know anything about bit rates, file compression and audio quality (yet feel the need to try and belittle somebody that does) - is it any surprise you can't get your flash drives to work on your h/u?

Really?:lol: Perhaps you'd like to guess the bitrate of a CD then? I'm guessing you don't know, if you think that 192kb represents audiophile quality. :rofl:

He'll be getting lossless quality from his CDs though. 150 MP3's on a CD will probably be compressed to something like 128kb (which is the stupid itunes standard setting incidentally). A standard CD is going to be 10 times that quality. Besides, he might want to read the booklets and look...

Well the gear changes and accelleration has never been anything like this smooth and I've done 50k miles in the car! DMF are SUPPOSED to be smoother yeah but as my garage said today, they're forever converting dmf's to smf's on Transits because they handle payloads better and last longer.

You will need a dedicated aerial for DAB reception. JVC do a really good one for about £60, which incorporates FM and AM as well. Your fm reception will be about as good as it can be if you install it

Have you done a search on the connects2 website? I'll be surprised if they don't do an interface that will do the job.

Cheers. Went for it in the end - replaced everything except slave and master cylinder, converting to SMF. I'm.amazed at the difference. Clutch is now unbelievably smooth. Pedal slick and provides same resistance all the way through movement. Changing down a gear I can barely even feel a...

Well I got the Transmech clutch kit but saw SO, SO many appalling reviews on a Google search I got the garage to find an alternative. Think it was a Valeo kit. £520 all in (paying cash so no VAT ;) ) which seems pretty good fitted for a conversion and new clutch. Will let you know what it's...

Anyone? Pretty please?

Look in the engine bay and see if you can see any build up of water in that tray underneath the windscreen. In the Audi, it was nearly up to the battery terminals before I noticed it :whistle: The fact you've mentioned trees makes me pretty sure it's your drainage holes blocked. Can't...

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious but are you SURE it's not the drainage holes in the engine bay that are blocked? Very common on VAG cars - I've had it on all mine (Passat, Golf, Audi A6 AND my Mk1 Leon). My house has trees around it and the leaves mush down and block the drainage plugs in the...

As title says. Clutch has been 'a little strange' for a few months. Started out with a bit of a judder now and again in low gears when first accellerating, but then that went away. Since then, again every now and then (probably every other day) I can't get it back into gear - at the same...

Thanks alot mate. I had visions of asking Kwik-Fit about tyre pressure and the reply being along the lines of 'you need four new shock absorbers'. 33 all round it is then. Cheers.

Not AFAIK, as long as the sizing is original. Is that what they might be referring to? I can't see why pressures would need to be different from one tyre manufacturer to the next!? :blink: Obviously in this case, the originals were 195s on 15 inchers, now they're 225/45/17. Yeah, I'm...

Is that load/speed or a 'normal operating' pressure?

Ta. Any different opinions?
