In this one I get the car ready for action. It's my first track day so I want to be as prepared as possible. I get a whole lot done but it's not entirely ready yet. I need to do the tie rod ends and alignment and it should be good to go.
Hope you enjoy the video!

@lowdl Месяц назад

Thank you. I've been driving it for the sound, can't get enough of it. 😂

Wow it's good to see that MK2 on the road again after so long

What do you mean? The last few videos has been about this car.

@@lowdl I'm referring to the purple MK2 u showed in your video buddy

@@craigolynne2942 Thanks for clarifying. And yes, it's been M.I.A for many years. Now to convince the owner to race it again 😬

@lowdl Месяц назад

@@craigolynne2942 It's one of her old friends that the family sold the car to soon after she passed. He's had it all this time.

At what supplier/spares shop did you get the Ferodo DS pads boet ?

@lowdl 21 день назад

@@myseedrcc3306 Goeie Hoop Onderdele 💪🏽 they've got the goods

@deyllonbarnes4435 Месяц назад

The car was 8v hey? if you using the 8v loom the blue wire in the bay that wouldhve gone to the side of the head has to be extended and put onto that switch you replaced. that should switch off your oil light

@lowdl Месяц назад

That's how it's currently setup. I'm not sure why it hasn't switched off the light.

@deyllonbarnes4435 Месяц назад

@@lowdl maybe a break in the wire or the cluster is sus.. try a white switch before you rip the loom apart

@lowdl Месяц назад

@@deyllonbarnes4435 There's a white and blue switch in there now. I swapped the wires around and it kept the light on. As it stands now, the light comes on randomly. Very weird.

@enricobrown1752 Месяц назад

Where did you buy the DS Pads?

@lowdl Месяц назад

Goeie Hoop Onderdele. I've heard that no one else has at the moment so I was happy to find stock there. I didn't check how much they've got but the salesman didn't make it seem as if they're running low.

@T-Tspares Месяц назад

Quick question does the 16v have a oil sensor on the head aswell or just on the oil filter housing

@lowdl Месяц назад

No, only on the filter housing. The blue sensor is apparnely for the head on a 8v. I tried my luck.

@T-Tspares Месяц назад

@@lowdl so maybe the wire of the head is lose remember these cars had 2 sensors now u only have 1 try using the othe sensors plug instead or fit both to the oil filter housing and use both plugs else u going to have bypass it on the cluster by thats running a risk because it will never come on again

@T-Tspares Месяц назад

I believe i missed u Saturday btwn the tdi guys 🫣would have loved to hear the car in person🥹

@lowdl Месяц назад

@@T-Tspares I've got two sensors in the filter housing. The white and the blue one. Those are supposedly the correct ones but something is still off.
