Sump guard for Bora

[JY Dog]

As I am intending to seriously attack the outback next year in the Bora and knowing that ground clearance is not the Bora strong point I am in need of a sump guard.

Some where out the waterpumper land does any one know where I can buy or have one made?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for that. I have sent off a query to Brian asking about one to fit the 4 motion.

An plan I couldn't recomend enough, when my old man was driving his 4 motion we had to replace the sump twice.

Luckily the low oil warning works a treat

Now he drives a toureag

I got mine for the R32 from Diesel Geek and am very happy with it. It's saved the sump on numerous events.

Not sure if they have one to fit the Bora.

Looks good, I wonder if there is anything local though ?

Otherwise they look good as my sump already has a nasty rash !

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I too am interested in this kind of thing. Any local suppliers?

why dont you guys buy the Standard VW Steel Skid plate.. its a OEM Part #

and it bolts right in?

in saying that i dont know the part number..

To be honest, I didn't know there was one. Certainly it's not on any of the options lists I've seen. I'll follow up with the dealer, but I'm not keen on paying out any more Dealer Tax as it is.
