Exciting!

If its the helper spring Id leave it. When I bought my 2000S I thought the pedal was heavy, it wasnt I was just too used to driving our family Passat which has zero feel on any of the controls.

Anyways I bought a new helper spring and had a go at fitting it. Its not as easy as tutorials make out. Working upside down and in a very very confined space. I gave up in the end and so did the garage I took it too for them to have a go.

Its at the back of the kitchen drawer now were it has been for over 2 years now.

I just did this yesterday afternoon. Needless to say I only got the spring out and didn't put everything else back yet.

Sometimes doing nothing is the right thing to do.....
