I don't think the seasons can cure or are the reasons for being a "extremely nice personage", or make it acceptable  :wink:

It is unlikely any sane person is bothered by this childish outburst. My advice is to ignore such behaviour, as trolls thrive on others' anger, frustration and annoyance. ...

We are here to help likeminded people and forum users' like GavVW.

:ok

I have him on ignore. But if he's left of his own accord then that's only improved the place, seemed like a very bitter person.

Going back to the topic at hand. I do know of a VW specialist in Todmorden GavW, but it's a bit of a journey and I'm not sure what his turnaround time is like.

This kind of moronic outburst has already seen a decline in the amount of posts and members, maybe it makes them happy

Historically there have been failings out here , as happens anywhere where people mix and converse , i always liken the internet to a pub , there will always be that group in the corner quietly discussing their mutual interest , in this case the t25 , and in another part of the bar there will be those wanting to discuss current affairs and news , there are some conflicts of interest , from normally helpful people then they get a bit bored and chuck a contra virtual idea about and just one or two floating about wanting to wind up and get under the skin of the others . This normally happens in the winter here , although not usually this early in the season ….
Let it go , it’ll pass

Hi guys sorry for going dark, had many issues finding someone to have a look at it and then life just sorts of gets in the way of getting anything done. The mechanic I finally got it in with at the start of Dec has just got back to me today saying it's an internal failure on the block letting water into the oil... He recommends getting a recon but they're about 3.7k..guess it depends on how much I want to spend..

Sounds to me like he really didn't want to investigate that further.
