Although the Ed. 30 has been giving me some trouble until recently, now that it's sorted I had some minor issues to deal with this one too.

The rear camera stopped working again after having the wiring repaired a few months ago. It broke again. :doh:

So I ordered a new one to make sure I have a working camera for another 4-5 years at least. Got just the camera from ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261651211275.

The right front window trim had the black matte paint flacking a bit so I got a new one from VW.

Went back to the friend who repaired the wiring and he replaced the camera and reinforced the original loom with a lot more heat shrink tube so prevent the wiring from bending when the camera operates out of the VW symbol.

He then replaced the door window trim I have the car back in top shape. :grin:

I still have the TyrolSport deadset rigid subframe collar kit to get fitted and the next oil change isn't far way too. About 1000 miles... :smiley:

So after 1000 miles since the last time I posted here the car had the oil and all the filters changed, a new right front window trim fitted, the rear camera replaced and the TyrolSport deadset rigid subframe collar kit fitted. :smiley:

The old camera was repaired and is now for sale: Link.

This time decided to use Motul 8100 X-clean C3 5w40 instead of the Liqui Moly Top Tec 4100 5w40.

Here are a couple of pictures of the TyrolSport kit:






A few weeks ago fitted the protective film to the rear doors (1K4809387). I didn't take pictures of them fitted. Should be doing their purpose. :smiley:

Activated the auto windows closing when locking the car on the comfort setting of the PolarFIS Advanced which also automatically close the wing mirrors when I lock the car. :star:

Got new Continental SportContact 5 fitted in the rear axle, changed the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asys 2 to the front axle and finally got rid of the Michelin Primacy HP. The Primacy HP lasted +3 years and +41k miles and still had +2 mm of depth. Not bad durability but their grip on wet roads isn't great compared to the tyres I have now fitted. :smiley:
