- Now, I’ve had this car a few months and only just getting some time to film a video on it, but since owning it I’ve not really done much mileage in it so I’ll be inspecting it thoroughly on the ramp today, let’s see what horrors we uncover!

Mate I’ve had 3 MK5 GTi’s and everything you gone through is so common on these. I had to change the thermostat housing on mine (pain in the ****) mine has the S3 high pressure fuel pump fitted along with Highbrid Turbo technics K3. Had to change the gear linkages as really common fault. I think you’re going to have some fun getting that sorted, and looking forward to seeing more on it. 👍🏼
Awesome cars for the money I think even with their gremlins
nice honest walk around,shame the last body shop did'nt spend enough prep time or have their gun setup correct for laying down the clearcoat
Typical problems with red cars hey
Love your stuff.
Cheers Gary 👍
Subbed. Look forward to seeing more work on this and the mk2. 🙂
Nice one Ricky, will get some content on both asap
Just subscribed fella as I own one myself. Looking forward to the upcoming content👌🏽
Thanks for the sub 👍 more to come shortly on this car
Still got it mate or haven’t you bothered much with it?
Hoping to get one myself in a month or 2 after my mk2 cupra was written off after a hit and run, red and dsg would be the dream 🤙 subscribed
Ah man that sucks!! But every cloud and all that, these cars are SOO good
Great content just subscribed.
Ah really appreciate it 👍
Top video as always, looks a nice car abit of your tlc will be 👌
Anyone else spot want to know about the mk2 stashed in the corner aswel ?
Cheers man, ah there’s one video on the mk2 already if you scroll down 😅 second one is coming soon 👍
The larger 18mm bolt on the rear consoles bushes allow for so much castor movement which will probably explain the differing wheel positions
Hmm I shall check that out and sort out a wheel alignment as it drives spot on to be fair, thanks 👍
@@kerbsidemobilemechanic VW say you should put a special pin in the 18mm hole when you remove that bolt to avoid it moving too much
Makes sense though I guess 👍
A couple of weeks of work on and off and u will have it sorted why I will drive my Citroën Berlingo multispace happy days and big up from Scotland
That’s it, only problem is I rarely have a few days free let alone weeks 😂
@kerbsidemobilemechanic you need to make time or you will make yourself ill .
People keep telling me this 😮💨
Will look mint when ya done
100%
Excited to see how this gose! Are we having a glow up on the workshop as well?
I heard you was taking a trip up from wales with a paint brush and roller?
@@kerbsidemobilemechanic I’m outside mate where are you? Hurry up before my paint drys
Let yourself in pal, left it unlocked for you
@@kerbsidemobilemechanic I don’t know where your 10mm or t30 went! Or who blocked the toilet
😂😂
Subbed great work m8 did you find out if the front arms were bent or damaged?
Cheers 👍 no everything looks straight, I think maybe at some point subframe has been down so needs a good old alignment
Ideal m8 am currently looking for a mk5 golf gti 👍
Brilliant cars mate 👍
Does it still have the Mk5 canbus? Let us have the canbus number if you get round to looking, great content - have a good Christmas 👍
What do you mean? The part number for the canbus control unit? As yes the mk5 does run canbus systems
@@kerbsidemobilemechanic I liked your radio, I had the rcd330 but no end of battery drain issues, so changed the canbus module and still had problems... I think you have the rcd360, so would be intrigued if it still worked on the Mk5 module or if someone before you updated the module and its now ok, Mk5's seem to be different for all owners, I have an edition 30 and a diesel gt170.
Ah I get you now, I’ll have a look at the part number on there when I get a chance mate 👍
I would go the whole hog and replace that near side wing. No good spending on paint for the rot to come back.
I think I may be of the same thinking unless body shop can cut it out and put a new bit of metal in but then that’s just more work
I paint my own stuff, but I have fixed both wings, rusting at exactly the same spot.
The cheapest option would be to get second hand wings, they rust at the top of the arch due to the foam pad behind it (for dampening/sound proofing). My VW specialist told me to trim off the pad about 1cm away from the arch so that water won't gather. 'apparently' this was also the fix suggested by VW.
I refurbished my Mk5 about 3 years ago and since I've fixed the pad, I've not had any rust come back. But then I did grind everything back, epoxy the living daylights out of it (front and back) and then put thick clear coat on it (ie, and overkill fix!)
Nothing major there, nothing a few hours won't fix tidy car health to enjoy and keep er shiny side up
I think it’ll be a very nice car with those bits sorted 👍
I've got mk6 gti dont like that engine cover that connects to air intake
👍
It is quite rusty but can be recovered.
come on
Mostly surface rust yeah
Is that the same GTi i smoked on the M40 that day! 👀🤣
I doubt it, must of been a dream you had…..or after the gear linkage broke 😂😂
In fairness you was stuck in 3rd gear... after i smoked you 🤪🤪👀👀
I think you need a refresher course in gaponomics class!!
Fix my water leak for me first 🤣🤣🤣
Just keep topping it up you’ll be fine 💀😅
Its had a hard life i suspect 😢
Yes, to a certain degree, but I failed to mention it’s got a full service history so not too bad hopefully
