@mustasprojects . Hey bud. The mop pad cuts really quick but leaves swirl marks. The sponge pad does help remove swirls. You can use only the sponge only, it works really well but just takes longer. Theres also much less risk of burn through with the sponge. Thanks buddy

@butlersracing7692 . Hi. You are actually correct. I think that it missed re inserting the c clip. There is however no way that the shaft can move enough to dislodge from the cv when everything is in place. Thanks for pointing that out buddy.

Hi. Its a m8 bolt. Please ensure that the handbrake and the drum can spin freely before attempting this.👍

Hey buddy. I did try adjusting the timing and that did not work for me

@kylefrancis1876 the airbag generally has 2 plugs. Disconnect them. These plugs should however connect to a clockspring. I would assume that your steering came without it. You should be safe

@@kylefrancis1876 Hi bro. Where are you based

@builtmk1795 I Cape Town bro

@builtmk1795 Also how do i connect the hooter brother?

@kylefrancis1876 . That's a bit far out. The best bet would be to look for someone stripping a velociti. You can either buy the spline or the entire shaft with the spline on

@builtmk1795 So Velocity are the only spline that will allow me to fit the G6 steering wheel?

Thanks buddy.

Hi. I did not have to do a reset.

This car is not on the road. It is under construction hence all the parts lying around.

Hi. What's the issue

Hi. I have not.

Hi. Do you need a dictator managment system

@ryanalkana6579 awsome bro. That's what this channel is about. I was ripped off too many times and decided to give it a try. Just don't give up even when things fail. Take a break and then try again

@@builtmk1795 thanks bro🙏

@@SèbabatsoPaulos . Hi. This sounds like your clutch needs to be replaced.

Only clutch kit or also need to buy new clutch cable

If your car is able to take gears whist idling it means that there is no issue with your cable. The only other issue which is actually a work around is to make the cable shorter by screwing in the plastic that sits on the cable at the gearbox. This will make your clutch lower but might alow you to drive the car a little longer

Okay. Thanks bro. Will get back to you

@SèbabatsoPaulos . Shot bro

Hey bro. This car has a standard ecu with a Dastek unichip. I'm running dictator on my other golf. I have a dictator system for this car as I'm going the turbo route here. I will start once my other golf is done. Stay tuned for this one.

@thesovietunion8385 . Howsit bru. I have a video on how I connected the hooter. Check out the channel.

I think that there's a gasket there. This is where the fuel pressure regulator fits. Pull out the refund have a look, if all else fails then replace the rail.

Thanks bud. What exactly is the issue with the second gear.

Hi buddy. Sorry man but I do not work on others cars.

Howsit. From my knowledge, you should be able to add on the extra link for the 5fth gear to your existing setup.

Hi. I don't forsee any problems doing that

Hi buddy. I'm not sure. I would suggest going to the spares shop with the gearbox code.

@builtmk1795 cos i swaped the flanges..took small ones from my old gearbox current gearbox were big..then i bought seals and installed them if was fine...i had tk take out box again cos of pushrod seal was leaking..so i think we damaged it the time were installing the box...so thats the second seal but its still leaking

That's not good. The only thing that I can suggest I'd that you clean up both surfaces properly before installation the seal. Use a fine grit sandpaper as well to make sure that there no issue on the surfaces. I can't think of any other possible reasons buddy.

@builtmk1795 i will do so ...will give u feedback on weekend

Thanks buddy. I used single stage paint on this car hence no clear coat. If you are using base and clear, you will only polish the clear coat. You can lightly sand over base coat, but this is mainly to sort out imperfections before clear. You will however have to give it another light coat of base before clear or else you might see the scratched in the base or the orientation of pigments in the base will show up as blotches etc. I hope that this explanation helps. I learnt a lot from watching RUclips channels such as diy automotive school, paint society and swrnc. Let me know if you are still unclear on anything. PS, do not sand base coat with anything rougher than 800 grit. All the best buddy

Hi buddy. The car was sanded with 800 grit paper hence the matte finish. Try a test panel first. Get a feel or the gun and the paint flow first. All the best buddy and don't give up. You can email me on builtmk1@yahoo.com if you require more info.

@@builtmk1795 awesome, Thankyou kind sir!

Thank you buddy. Don't be afraid to try. Just take your time and don't rush. The trick is preparation. Painting is actually the easiest part. It's all about the prep. Thanks for the support buddy.

I'm glad that the video helped

Howsit bro. I will try but I'm really pressed for time . No promises but I will see if I can do an overview video.

Just out of curiosity, why would you want to do 60-2 on a mp9 engine

Hi. It is caused by this circlip coming off. Pull it up and replace the clip as shown in the video

Howsit. I bought them in 2020 for R3500. I'm very happy with them . I have always loved the design of the mk4 recaros. I only bought the front seats. I still need to have mine reupholstered. It is very difficult to find a neat set so factor the cost of reupholstered as well. The current rate for a good job in leather for front and rear seats is approximately R16000. That's the prices in jhb.

@@builtmk1795 they look good with the backsear installed hows leg room are they not too tall or big in the mk1

@calebrichards8111 . They are perfect. There is no issue with the gear selection or leg room. The only issue is that the bolster adjustment knob hits the seatbelt box on the b pillar. I just removed the know and its now perfect. I regretted installing the velo dash but my personal opinion is that the steering dash and seat combo looks crazy. It also feels great when driving as the seat really hugs you well.

@@builtmk1795 yep been scratching my head a while about these seats im sure you've seen plenty mk1s with seat conversions that look way to bulky from outside the car aswell as inside when i saw the golf 4 seats in think the only seats besides mk1 seats that look good from outside aswell

@@builtmk1795 so how much will a set of recaros set me back front only

Howsit. My understanding is that you can. The module is not coded to a specific vehicle so you should be able to plug in any other unit and everything should work. You might have an issue with the rev counter but connect it as shown in the video without the adapter If you are still using a distributor

Hi. The car has since done less than 50kms. It has been parked off as it has hail damage. I cannot answer your question with certainty but it seems like it will hold.

@@builtmk1795 ok. I guess we'll see what happens 🤷🏻‍♂️

@BenDeSwert666 .remember that your cv shafts also help to hold everything in place once all is bolted. There is play, however minimal, unless your chassis is Stretching.

@@builtmk1795 true. we'll see. Should it fail with mine, i'll let you know 😂

Thanks buddy. I tried.

Watch out for the upcoming build. This was my first one so I learnt a lot from it.

Awsome bud. It only took me 3yrs to sort mine out 🤣

Hi. Disconnect the linkages from the selector and try to select the gears manually on the box as shown in the video. If it doesn't go in smoothly, you have a fault on the box. Secondly check all the bushes and rubbers. Worn rubbers and bushes will cause selection problems as well.

I used a tacho adaptor. The waveform needs modification when using a 60-2 hence the need for the adaptor

Thanks buddy. Nothing ventured nothing gained I guess. Would diluting the colour using a clear base be a better option than using thinners .

@@builtmk1795 just go with the thiners job done

Hi. I sent my head into 8v performance, they did everything for me. Make sure that your oil pressure is OK before doing anything.

@@builtmk1795 am in limpopo i dont have a way to send it to them 🤦‍♂️

@mukhunyimkay5126 any engineering shop should be able to assist. Change the valve stems, reseat the valves, do a pressure test and put in new lifters as well.

@@builtmk1795 Dankie

I'm unsure about that buddy

Hi. The hooter has a constant positive and the negative is connected by the hooter button. The first test would be to use a test light or multimeter and test on the positive wire on the hooter and a good ground. You should see approximately 12v. Then swap to the negative wire and get someone to press the hooter. You should get the same reading. My guess is the ring on the hooter and the the piece from the steering are not making good contact. Clean them and make sure that they are making contact

@builtmk1795 I found that my connections are touching somewhere so now I just connected one terminal to the hooter and it works for the time being but once the wires touch it doesn't I don't know why but for now I'll have to separate the two wires with insulation tape just to not get traffic fines.

@@lindokuhlemdlalose9723. It's difficult to comment without seeing what's happening. I guess that you should insulate them if everything else is fine

Hi Hilton. Which country are you from. Your answer will determine the best response to this question. Regards

@@builtmk1795 Capetown

Hi. I show the black control box on the video. That controls your heat, fuel, indicators and rev counter. Your lights and speedo can work without however you need the new spec wiring harness. Initially when I did not have a control box I manually wired in an indicator relay for the indicators and put on aftermarket gauges for the fuel and water temp. The only drawback with that is that your hazards won't work. I however wanted everything to look stock hence I got the control box. Please note that the rev counter works off the CAN system. I had to find a work around as I'm using a dictator 60-2 management. I hope that this is the explanation you were looking for. Let me know if you require clarity on anything.
