Well should be picking up VW sports springs tomorrow (the optional extra on the 9n3 unless you got the sport model)

Which according to another forum member (Ell) they are 15mm lower than the standard anyway.

So hopefully they will do me unitl i can afford the 30mm like Dean has!
Then i can do insane speeds round roundabouts too ;-)

Yeh everything can be taken from halfords! Although the Wurth's stuff may need google searching (thats what I did).

as i said on msn, i think that yellow brown stuff could be oil, so something like white spirit or meths should do the trick!
have you tried yet Chris?

Tried the meths, it started to shift it but then stopped.
I think i am just going to have to do it in stages.

Thanks

Btw, where did you get your sports springs from, and if you mind me asking how much they were? :)
