Whats a sign that the gear box is about to in the 6n2? I can move mine about in all the gears. Does that mean shes about to go?

what you mean you can move about in all your gears??

There is some play with the gearstick when it's in gear mate, if you can change gear freely wen you're driving it should be fine.

Bloke I know said that his polo gear box was tight (his is a 9n) and he said if ur gearbox is slack its wrecked and about to go. True or False. In sayin this the bloke im talkin about always says "His" things are 100% and he never gets any problems with them

Dub-Vee - Nice car u have there m8

Was it u who supplied max off the forum with his spoiler?

Mate thats a load of crap!

Is it whining?
Is it crunching when changing gear?
Is it rattling?

There is always some movement in the stick when in gear - newer boxes like the 9N is going to be a bit tighter

Your gearbox sounds fine mate.you'll always have a little bit of play in it i think, well mines certainly does. Your mate is just trying to sound like he knows loads about cars......

Cheers for the comment of the car. Yeh i supplied max with his spoiler, his car is coming along nicely. My car has a few changes coming up. 4 things in total. Expensive things lol. Will all be done in a few weeks

Yeh mate thats the reiger front splitter. Looks alrite eh. I am planning on changing it for the gti splitter, but i'm not sure, i really really would like to get it to the bodyshop and smooth it into the front bumper. Think that would look differnent!

how much it cost ye to spray ur front and back bumper Dee? Eg. smoothed and all.

Cheers

well my car went through a huge process. It had a big jap style bodykit on it before, and the car was pretty much all primered, ready for spray, bt then i decided to rip it off and go subtle, but the kit had been smoothed in so was when i ripped it off, it left a heep of fibre glass etc, so i took it to the body shop and he did:-

1) sanded down all the bodywork to bear metal
2) smoothed front, back and side strips
3) weld plated and smoothed my boot
4) Fitted my boot solenoid etc
5) primered the car
6) Fitted my splitter
7)Sprayed the all car

Think that was the process.

All for the princely some of Â£900 so i couldnt really tell home much t would be for just the 2 bumpers.
