Took about 9 or 10 weeks from initial phonecall to delivery, but they said they were particularly busy when I ordered.

Allwheeltrim were very good when I ordered one about 18 months ago, bit of a wait for it to be made, but worth it. Very good service and well made.

Thanks for everyone's input, have gone the route of standard petrol mounts and all seems OK. Not taken her for a good run yet, but hopefully all will be well. You're not wrong there, Bobsticle, proper pain of a job (although helped by plenty of swearing) - not helped by a PO's attempt at...

Thanks Bobsticle, will go with original petrol mounts. There's enough rattling and buzzing at the moment, so a bit more surely won't hurt! I'm hoping it goes some way to solving or lessening a judder that appears when coming off the throttle. Thanks again.

Hello all, Looking for a bit of advice regarding the above. Engine and gearbox rubbers pretty much shot to bits and are in very poor condition (SIII SWB, 1973 petrol). I have spent a bit of time today spraying penetrating oil and loosening fixings to make life easier in preparation for changing...

Bought a canvas earlier this year from All Wheel Trim, very happy with what I received.

Not a 2A I know, but I've not long bought and fitted one to a S3 petrol (about a month ago). Really easy to fit with clear instruction manual and it only took 2 or 3 hours to do. Everything needed came in the crate except the mainshaft nut tool, but picked one up on ebay pretty cheaply. I think...

British Rail?

I've just fitted similar cable to get rid of a previous owners bodge with the accelerator linkage - looks like part NRC8116. I just used an M12 flange nut to secure.

Brilliant, thanks for the tip - would never of thought about doing that in all honesty.

Tracked a little bit of info down, on a VW forum. Seems jets are opposite to what I thought.

Hi All, Wonder if I can pick some brains regarding above please? Would I be correct in thinking the primary and secondary jets/emulsion tubes are as identified in the attached photo? Orange arrow is throttle cable for orientation of photo. I've searched for a definitive answer, but whilst...

Just a thought, if you have plenty of access to the rivets, might be worth trying one of these: https://www.sealey.co.uk/product/5637706740/riveter-adaptor-drill-powered I bought one as have a bit of arthritis in my hands and can't use the plier type for long. Was a bit sceptical, to be...

Lovely, many thanks for pointing me in the right direction, that's done the trick - airlock gone and all good now. :)

Causing me a bit of grief this one..........wonder if i can pick some brains please? I've done the following: 1. New water pump, new gaskets, all new hoses, new thermostat (82°) and new radiator. 2. Fan controller fitted to top hose for electric fan. 3. Previous owner had bypassed the...

Many thanks all for your input, rad will get a good flush whilst everything's apart. Dont I know it.......lost a set of meter leads to the fan not too long ago!

Many thanks for your reply Blackburn, I've already ordered new pipes, clips and water pump - so it's getting changed whatever. Have ordered both thermostats too, but wasn't too sure which to fit. Also I neglected to mention that the heater is not working. No blower fan fitted and the heater...

Hello all, Having worked through many items trying to tidy things up, its time to turn my attention to the cooling system. Its a 1973 88inch but with a later 2.3 petrol engine (code 11H), the cooling system needs an overhaul with hoses that have been bodged with joiners and some are now...
