So today has been another productive one, the cars been in for a full service. After reviewing the service book the last service was at 58k (4k ago) however from looking at the colour of the oil very doubtful!
Got a few pics during the service:




Air Filter Old & new


Oil Filter & Castrol Edge 5/30 longlife



Pollen Filter



Cam Follower



Spark Plugs (OEM NGK Platinum)


PCV (The tech recommended I put my foot down once in a while as short journeys will create a build up like this,fully cleaned surrounding areas before putting new one on)


DSG Oil & Filter (It appears the oil & filter has never been changed as the date on the old filter referred to 2006! )



Washer Fluid & Filter (The tech noticed when topping up the fluid that the filter was missing from the inside of the reservoir and had one lying around so poped it in for me)



The tech was impressed with the condition of the car throughout and assured me it was certainly one of the better ones he had seen which has given me piece of mind.

big thanks to my brother yet again for sorting it for me and getting the bits from TPS, better make sure hes on my Christmas card list this year!

Thanks
Jack

The cars been booked in for Monday 6th march to have the following;
-edition 30 front splitter fitted (colour coded with gloss black centre)
-smoothed front bumper with plate holes removed
-Colour coded side skirts
-Edition 30 rear bumper (colour coded with gloss black centre)

In preparation I ordered some pressed number plates With my private registration :D
I've gone full size rear (20.5")  and a slightly smaller 17" for the front


I have also spent some more time getting the wheels ready, sealed with poor boys wheel sealant followed by a wax using meguiars carnuba wax and then a spray over with mad cow ultra violet speed detailer.




Cheers
Jack
