    Welcome along mate, and sorry for the delay in getting you approved. That's a nice looking deck, and very rare as the diesel. 😎

    Sorry your account took a while to get approved. Keep us updated on the build, sounds really different. 😎

    So, it seems that admin notifications haven't been getting sent out by the system when new users have registered, meaning there's been 150 user registrations awaiting approval. A while ago we had to change the setup to require users to be approved manually because we were getting a ton of fake accounts with spam posts and dodgy links. Been working through approvals, with newest registrations first, with about 100 left to go. There'll be some older posts appear from new users who've posted but it's not appeared due to the approval being stuck. Apologies to anyone caught up in this.. Please take a moment to introduce yourself and start a project thread - everyone likes to see photos of your ride 😎 We'll be monitoring whether any of the new accounts are spammers, and do the best to keep the forum safe

    Hi Pedro. Is it like a groaning sound?b if so it could be the lower ball joints. Are you able to get someone to turn the steering while you listen to try and see where the noise is coming from?

    Hi mate. I've had a look at your profile and as far as I can see it's approved. @Dave any idea?

    Finally got around to doing some wrapping.. Bit of a learning experience, but starting to understand it. Gone for midnight purple.. Looks lush in the light. Only about 70% happy with the front bumper. If I did it again I'd do it differently, as there's a few creases. Just wrapping the body kit.. The paint and filler are where there'd been stickers that the garage had peeled off, and it took paint with it, but also done cracks and damaged areas

    Probs away with Karen the second weekend, but end of June could be a gooer

    Looks like a tidy job, and good to be able to keep them adjustable. Also look nice and low still - my Ep3 seats suit quite high with fixing them too the standard rails (though I'm used to them now, and tbh I'm close enough to the ground anyway 😁) Seats look spot on as well.

    @Dave After the MOT do you fancy a bit of a mini meet before the old girl goes?
  10. dr_broon
    Aw man, that's a shame. Too many cars?
  11. dr_broon
    Fingers crossed mate 💪 Did you get all the gremlins sorted?

    Fuel pump

    dr_broon replied to a question in SOS! Help!!

    Very of it's time
  13. dr_broon
    Yeah, I know that from experience unfortunately (along with ploughing through salty slushy snow years ago). There's not much getting in, but still need to try and track it down. Think it's going to need someone in the boot with all the trim out and a hosepipe job.

    I'm sure it's a tank out job.. At least on the aerodeck

    Be good to see that mate, and well done for getting it sorted. A few weeks back I resealed my roof seam, but as I was cleaning the channel out before I started, I was pouring water straight into the channel and there wasn't any water getting in. Still had a bit of water in since, so now suspect the rear window seal.

    Sorry, I kept forgetting to take some photos while it's light. Looking good under there still Not bad for a 25 year old van 😂
  17. dr_broon
    I'd be very surprised if there are any to be fair.

    Back on the roads this weekend now the feckers have finally stopped putting salt down. Fresh from an mot and service - so nice to be driving the go kart estate again 😎 Took a cheeky pic of the underside while it was on the ramps when I went to pick it up.. Still looking clean 5 years on from the big refresh (apart from things like abs sensors and heat shields...) Going to give it a coat of lanoguard this year as well.. Impressed with how easy it was when I did the stepwagon

    Starting to look like a race car now mate. Bet that stiffens things up a treat!
  20. dr_broon
    Sounds good. Tidy solution on the guages as well - would be handy to be able to print whatever parts you fancied making, although I'm sure I'd end up with a garage full of failed ideas 😂
  21. dr_broon
    Hope you're doing better now mate.
  22. dr_broon
    Most of the time it's picking the right key word to use in the search. Often stuff you're looking for is in people's build threads, but even when you don't find what you're after at least you get to dip into what folk were doing to their cars. 👌
  23. dr_broon
    That's a great idea.. Better than trying to follow water tracks.
  24. dr_broon
    You been sprinkling shiny dust again I see.. Looking sweet 😎
  25. dr_broon
    Totally agree mate. It's a nightmare trying to find stuff out about the stepwagon. There is a UK forum but there's hardly any content on it...everything seems to be on Facebook, but as you say it's rubbish for finding stuff unless you spend hours searching and stumble on something relevant. I'm keeping away from Facebook again nowadays.. Find it a real waste of energy.
