    Kitchen burst under floor pipe but no water escaping!

    I don't know how long it was that bad for but it must have been a good few hours! So you think it's best I give them a call!?

    Kitchen burst under floor pipe but no water escaping!

    You would have thought so but nothing visible outside, I could hear it flowing out so it was deffo leaking at that rate. The kitchen & the middle room in the house (old terrace house) are concrete, the front room is floor boards with a cavity.

    Kitchen burst under floor pipe but no water escaping!

    That's about the flow rate the combi kicks in so a decent amount of water flowing.

    Kitchen burst under floor pipe but no water escaping!

    Thanks for you're reply Terry! Yes the cold feed really could do with being re-routed, it must have been a reasonably sized hole in the pipe as the flow was enough to kick up the boiler for hot water demand, just concerned as to where the water is/will go hehe

    Kitchen burst under floor pipe but no water escaping!

    Had a burst pipe in the kitchen under the floor (concrete with old tiles on top), it was the old redundant hot feed to the washing machine that is buried in concrete to run from 1 side of the kitchen to the other, it must have been leaking for about 12hrs, at its height it was enough to kick up...

    Bora TDI clutch pedal clip broken

    John they are not hard to get off :) welding it in situ must have been tricky! DIYSpanner - you know what I mean about cable tieing the spring? Cable tie it like they are spring compressor something on a strut, makes this awkward job a lot easier!! Also make sure you don't forget to remove the...

    Bora TDI clutch pedal clip broken

    This is the thing, it's not a different setup! A Bora identical to a Golf, I have owned & repaired Golf's for a long time, had a MK4 which is the platform we are talking here for 12 years, the black plastic clip is the shoe contact for the clutch switch & nothing else. What's happened is the...

    Bora TDI clutch pedal clip broken

    This is what I'm not understanding, in my pic you will see the piece of metal that should be there to stop the rod! A new pedal from VW is less than £30, if/when you change it be careful not to loose the round spacers that live in the cylindrical part where the bolt goes through, pedal will...

    Bora TDI clutch pedal clip broken

    This is how the clutch pedal should look when repaired, notice the end plate that's been welded back on. Was the master cylinder rod on you're pedal not pushed through the end of the pedal cap?

    Bora TDI clutch pedal clip broken

    Ok, correct me if I'm wrong but you have not fitted a new or repaired/welded clutch pedal?? The only reason that black clip breaks off is when the clutch master cylinder rod pushes the white clip through the end of the clutch pedal! There is a bent over & tac'ed on plate that breaks off. If all...

    Bora TDI ABS waring light on all the time

    Normally a team of technical experts get together in a room with some computing power & go from there, creating a prototype, going through rigorous testing to arrive at a final verson of an ABS system that is a viable & safe product. Sarcasm aside :LOL: NO! Doing this will just create...

    Straight forward yes, can it be messed up? yes! By all means have a go but please have someone watching over you who does know what they are doing!! Brakes are safety critical components & need to be 100 correct.
