What's the quickest job you've ever done on your car?

That is the only instance of me rushing around I can remember I only do it when the mood takes me.

 

i dont think ive done anythin interestingly fast on any of my cars lol

 

Thought i was the only one that did that lol

 

Quickest big(ish) job was a gearbox in just under an hour - it was snowing and car was parked on the kerb outside - i wasn't hanging around to get cold!

 

a gearbox in an hour? how much practice did that take?

 

Did that on my scirocco last month, peice a ****, only took me three days

 

I've done a few... i think in the region of 20 in a couple of years

 

changed mi self adjusting clutch cable for a manual one on mi mk2 golfyesterday in an hour - with me dad there to pass stuff to me.

 

Totally remodelled the bodywork including the roof in less than a second. Only tool I used was a tarmac road.

 

changed the standard dv to a forge one in about 1.30

Jason.

 

You still got that Tub watch?

 

Our Transit tech at work Matt can replace a clutch on a RWD transit in 30 mins, no sh*t !!

Leads me on nicely to the video I found on You tube recently...

Prodrive WRC gearbox change on WRC car 5:40....

 

i think one of my probs at the minute is that the car is not high enough off the ground. i couldnt start till one cos it was raining and then it was dark by 4

the change on that wrc car is amazing, though

 

Impressive! And a fit female mechanic to boot!


My quickest job is front discs and pads in 20mins.

 

After I wrote off my Campaign I had to strip all the parts off it I wanted (as I'm re-shelling it). Removed the engine, gearbox, exhaust, front wishbones, front brakes, front hubs, front wishbones, top mounts, front suspension, rear beam, rear brakes, handbrake cables, rear suspension and driveshafts in less than 1 hour!

Was a case of jacking the (remains of the) body shell up in the air, un-doing about 10 bolts and dropping everything onto the floor.

 

I once re-wired a Veyron in 20 mins.

But to be fair, I did stop for a brew.

 

Slacker!

 

i changed the dipstick guide on mk2 in under 10 sec on sun

 

Winner, so far!

 

Easy come.....Easy go play with the GTI
