MK2 Golf GTi 8V overheating03 Jan 2006 12:40 GMT22
I've got a 90 Spec 8V GTi (PB engine code) and it's getting hot in traffic.

thump-thump-thump02 Jan 2006 14:16 GMT19
That's about as close as I can get to the noise my front-right wheel is
making.  Once I hit about 65 it actually smoothes off a bit and gets
