    Washed the R and took it on a very spirited drive to the dealer for parts...which happened to be closed so it was just a spirited drive.

    Dropped my extra front grille off to get vinyl wrapped, chatted up with a guy with a widebody MKV GTi getting some tint done for his car. Summer wheels/tires back on...had a lot of fun on the way to work this morning. Michelin PSS' are AWESOME!
    If your gas cap light comes on even if you think you tightened the cap, try pulling on the cap as you tighten it. Worked for me.

    replaced driver side front axle...dunno how it happened but outer CV joint was f***ed inside (boot appeared to be fine)...for me being new to working on cars was pretty proud of myself did it in a little over 2 hours

    best part is I can now enjoy my car on its new coils and wheels (pics coming as soon as this s***y weather stops)

    well I got it from York VW (my local dealer) 499.00 but was refunded 200 when i returned the old axle...i little expensive but napa, autozone, advanced auto etc were all out and had no idea when they were getting them. Since my R is my DD i needed the part next day so had to suck it up and dig deep

    Needed to have the alignment checked on Wookie-WP, when the tech says, Howie, you seem to have a problem here, LHS





    Car was at the dealer last week, seems they decided to lighten Wookie-WP Had it fixed and soon strongly worded email will be sent to said dealer. They fixed it pronto.

    Finally replaced my stupid dealer plate frame with a plain, black one. Looks so much cleaner now.
    If your gas cap light comes on even if you think you tightened the cap, try pulling on the cap as you tighten it. Worked for me.

    Nice! I heavily considered doing that to mine before I sold them.

    Someday, I might pick up a set of these and do that:
