I had that happen to me. Picked the car up from the bodyshop and it didn't drive the same. Went to Alex to get the brakes sorted and he drove it and immediately asked whether the battery had been disconnected. Revo settings had gone back to default and I hadn't realised.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Nothing new really.. just swapped the bonnet for one in slightly better condition, no bullet hole in the front edge!  :signLOL:



Good job it was only a 2 minute job to swap the bonnet over....... wasnt it alex????  :P  :grin:  :evilgrin:  :fighting:



Car seems to be running fine now, no more problems with the cutting out.
