    So I’m from Ireland and vw producing a car for the irish and uk market they just moved the steering column but kept the brake servo in the same place and used a rod to activate it. As there is no room behind the engine in right hand side of the car . I’m now running bigger brakes ( check out next video ) and I really need to upgrade the brake and servo plus mine was failing so it also made sense . Hope the video helps you and you can do the same . All parts are from a mk2 golf

    Another easy way to lube and free up resistance on the motor is really simple. Disengage the transmission for the wing (bow tie) as he stated. Then turn on the ignition and use the dash switch to run it in both directions for about 2 minutes each. I found even when new, I had a problem after about 20K miles. This fixed and corrected the resistance. You can also lube the spoiler hose/pipe from the inside near the connection to the wing vs. taking it completely apart.

    Rain I guess , but if it’s wet for the Miscanthus ground it’s wet for the barley, wheat and maize harvests too . Over all I’d have to say no. Only problem we did have is we have to go through one field to get to the next field where the Miscanthus is. And if the ground is wet we will leave soil damage in the first field. But it would be the same if we had maize or beet so we just see it like any other crop
