    Aww dam how much did you fill it up with in the end? Our manuals say they are a 62L tank yet i've managed to put 65l in without it even showing any signs of conking out.

    and I must also say that there were ZERO symptoms of impending doom and failure apart from right at the very end.

    not just today. in the past week ive had awesome tint (legal reflective silver) put on it, got the central locking fixed (fitted aftermarket system with new remotes), had the headliner redone in charcoal gray so now have a two toned interior (which i think looks great) and yesterday my a-pillar pod came from the states.
    must stop spending money now..

    well

    Golf went for 120k service, 1hr into the service I get a call saying the water pump doesnt fit.

    All parts where from ECS Tuning and matched part numbers to local VW parts. Looks like they put the wrong water pump into the box, now I have to get one expressed <1hr from VW to get the car back together and finish the job -.-

    Its gonna be a expensive day.
