Default Lovely job.

The car looks gorgeous - I'd like to get my heap up to that standard one day...

Re the shims - I had a similar problem trying to get them for my VW Santana 5 cyl petrol but found a rather surprising source of help. My local VW dealer, when asked about them, said they had a full workshop set with several of each size in. As they had such little use for them these days, they just let me borrow the box F.O.C so long as I put back in the shims I no longer needed.

I don't know for sure if they're the same ones on the D24 but I wouldn't be surprised, knowing VAG.

If they are the same and you get stuck again, let me know and I'll check if the offer still stands...

(Poor old Santana died 18 mths ago now...)
