What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[governor22]

my diff is getting worse; backed out of the drive today and the 'clunk clunk clunk / bang bang bang' noise is almost permanent; couple of tradies working on a site across the road all stopped what they were doing and looked over..... I love people checking out my ride, but not like that.

For me it's not what's been done it is when it will get done, have some major changes coming up but it all needs time, car will be off the road next week until after Christmas maybe new years. Pics on before and after will be posted during all work done for anyone to learn, No engine work just cosmetic changes I'm itching to get it started...

I really hope it's a Bora R front bumper, it's about time someone in Australia did one.

so it makes a noise like this all the time or only in reverse?

only in reverse when i turn, and sometimes when i'm driving forward and turning.... straight lines are fine though

I've been looking at those front ends seriously man they look good!!! but the problem for me is if I do the front then I'll have to do the rear then I'll need side skirts to polish it off it's never ending not sure I'd wanna head in that direction!! But agree it would be nice to see some boras out there like in the states and europe

im keen to bring in some side skirts and bumpers in the next 6months or so. so maybe a GB could be in order... a package of 3 sets of sideskirts would save us a fortune id imagine

. I presume there would be interest in GB for sure. It's worth checking out what savings we can make!!

Today I finally got my rear diff replaced at the expense of the dealer after a hard fought battle involving Consumer Affairs. Now it doesn't bind when I do u-turns, and also feels 100x smoother upon take off and when turning. Big shout out to Dean at Volkwerke in Greensborough.

It's a big weight off my shoulders as I can now finally start to enjoy my car.

Id be a LONG way off doing it, but it could be worth looking at

Thats awesome! big 'sigh' when it was all ok? might be worth keeping a eye on when you lower the car more...

Yep a HUGE sigh. I actually hated driving the thing. On my stock wheels there was what looked like positive camber wear on one wheel because of the screwed diff. Thank God I only drove around on my new tyres for a little while..

I'll keep an eye on it when I lower it. Actually there's been a delay in lowering it coz I hyperextended my knee during basketball so can't do much nowadays. Gotta take my car back next week to fix up the guard work as it still rubs sometimes, so might get the dudes to remove the perches for me.
