bora problems

[davidfaylerwick]

hi sorry for asking for advice straight away with my first post but i cant seem to find the answer anywhere

i have a bora tdi (ALH)

a couple of weeks ago i had a wee bump from the front end (hat a wall in snow at low speed) anyway i got the front end replaced and sprayed but ever since then i have had no electric windows, interior lights and i cant open the boot solanoied. Everything else works fine its just a pain in the *** as i smoke in the car and i can hardly get breathed i have checked all the fuses and had a look at the relays but they all seam fine - not 100% sure on the relays as i was unsure if i got the correct one though.

Another problem is that the temperature sensor in the side of the block seems to work intermitantly sometimes in the morning it will go up to 90 then drop right back to the start

Also i recon my cluch will be needing done shortly and its the first car with one of those duel mas flywheels and i was told i have 3 choices replace the clutch only replace the clutch and flywheel with a replica or change it out for a single flywheel what in your guys opinions would be best

Also in another of misk question i have no speakers in my back doors and i was wondering how i would go about putting a cable through to the headunit between the door and the door sill

Any help on on any of these issues would be great as its kinda letting the car down just now

Just one thing I'd suggest about the temp. sensor issue. From what you are saying it sounds like the thermostat is sticking, the engine warms up with the thermostat closed until it is hot then the thermostat cracks open and the engine is flooded with the rest of the cold water in the system and the temp. sensor drops, however, in this case it should recover to normal working temperature after a short while.

I've seen this before in cars that did not have anti-freeze in them. Anti-freeze contains a lubricant among oother things.
