    His guys does anyone have a link on how to remove the electric cabriolet roof from a mk3 R reg 98. I've looked and can only seem to find manual ones or ones on how to remove the fabric.

    Ideally I need one that will show how to lift it all out as one unit... if this is possible

    Hi rubjonny thanks for the help but the one on yours seems to be for a manual roof, mines electric/hydraulic does this make a difference?

    On another note though, good lord is that literally a manual for everything ever in that link! You have got some serious amount of content there

    Sorry I forgot to say, there is only one procedure listed in Elsa for both, so the hydro roof must be near enough the same to remove :)

    I am a bit of a wiring diagram hoarder its true :lol:

    Do you know what oil the roof takes? I've googled it and about 20 different things pop up but the vw stuff looks to be 20 a litre? Any other place I can go would you know

    the VW part number is G 004000M2, and its 9+VAT per litre :)

    Its the same green stuff as used in the power steering system if that helps?
