Defender!!!!

These things are massive!

Golf Gt to be part of the Wellington European fleet.

This came through needing some repairs and the customer had already replaced with a new car. so we decided we might take it on and retire one of the three BMW’s that have been servicing Wellington customers for over 4 1/2 years.  Very tidy Golf GT done super low KM’s. Will be TOY005 on the fleet, looking forward to having it running around…

It does have a leaking water-pump, so first job is water-pump and cam-belt, update the service, EGR valve needed and a saggy roof liner to be repaired.

We bought plates along time ago so time to print ‘TOY005’ for this one, MK5 and 005, was meant to be.

Some obvious work is the headlights have gone all cloudy.  We get our friend Chris in from Final Touch to work his magic on these ,gets a great outcome and a great warranty as well…

How’s that comparison?!  Money well spent

 

Head line ris a bit tired too, so that’s come out for some new fabric…

Above, failed roof liner, below, re-covered and ready to go in….

Fixed the failed water pump that was pouring water out, just to find a very minor leak at the radiator..(  New radiator going in/ car is service position.

Ferrari back for a visit

Even Ferrari’s need a WOF check

A nice couple of white hatches in, 130 and 135.  Both very nice rides

Mechatronic VW Transmission repairs

Towed in with no drive, diagnosed with a failed Mechatronic unit in the transmission.  Customer very happy to have a mechanical Warranty as these parts are complex and don’t come cheap.  Our supplier sent this out pre-programmed.  Still required the use of our Ross-Tech to do a relearn and set adaptations etc.

 

Above, the new unit fresh out of the wrapper

Old and the new, matching up and using special tools to get the gear selection correct before fitting new ‘Mechatronic’.

Transmission with the Mechatronic unit removed…..
