I'm wanting to change my old nasty gray stain ridden 8v seats for the MK5 Polo GTI seats. I was wondering if anyone has ever attempted this, or installed any other seats in a mk4. What im trying to find out is if anyone knows if it is just a staight swap or if the runners are different sizes. cheers...

I'm the owner of a 1.4 8v mk4 polo and really want to swap engines for a g40 engine. however, in all my research very few engines have been available and have all been wrote off and are currently in scrappies. Does anyone here have any info on a place that deals with reconditioning vw engines, or an...

ive got a similar prob at the moment. i also changed the clutch and thrust beariong thinking it was that. if it has gotten to the stage where you are struggling in and out of gear a bearing within the gear box has probably collapsed and caused serious damage to the box. your best option is to buy a ...

If u are looking to put it straight on the inlet manifold you have buy one designed for the car, universal ones are always too wide and interfere with the accelerator cable.

alrite m8. the pedal box went on my polo a while ago. the part cost between £25 and £30 bucks. now the job is a tricky one. it could take up to three hours because the entire dash and steering wheel all have to be taken out to access the actual pedal box. Dont pay anymore than £120.

I would be up for going. Sounds good. Keep us all informed.

Alright guys. i just had my pedal boxed replaced by a friend of mine. However to access it he had to take the steering wheel and dash out. My airbag light is now on constantly, and he doesnt know why it wont go off. Anyone have any ideas what could of went wrong? cheers

Sounds good. Where exactly were you guys thinking of tho? Springfield Quay? it was pretty sound last time over at the bingo end.

A similar thing is happening to mine. it is a mixture between a rubbing and scweeking noise coming from the suspension or bearning some where.

Alright. i just bought a badgeless grill for my red mk4. But i have never taken the grill off my car or any thing. can you give advice on how to do this, or anything i should be wary of?? cheers
