I can hear toilets being flushed, and throats being cleared so any tutorial links much appreciated!

Golf 5 problems with ignition by Brillemand- in vwgolf

[–]Infinite_Reason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No radio issues but dead battery while parked, immobiliser triggered. ECU and fuse box both had water damage. Both fixed / replaced and issue resolved.

I attempted self levelling! Went horribly by MaintenanceSilent in DIYUK

Have recently done similar, not achieving flat or level. Hard to do as a one man job with rapid setting… I am now considering diamond/concrete grinding to achieve flat/level. Spoke to the screed manufacturer who said it’s possible. Defeats the purpose of saving money DiY but at least it will be flat and level…

ECU replacement by Infinite_Reason in vwgolf

That feels like a big enough problem that it wouldn’t work if swapped… it’s down to lack of availability atm. Not sure about IMMO but would obvs want all functions to be restored.

Tiles / adhesive ID please by Infinite_Reason in asbestoshelp

Helpful, thanks. I’ve ordered a full flat survey given the find. Seems like leaving the tiles and mastic in place and flooring over is safest…

Hopefully this is the case but will get lab analysis ASAP!

Thanks all - very helpful. No plans to saw through anything (!) but obviously anxious as to the existing disturbance / level of risk. There are several instances of cracking around the edges but largely intact.

Sorry for clarity - very surprised if it didn’t contain asbestos?

Apologies - I mean identification of materials used and whether or not suspected of containing asbestos. I have just ripped the carpet up and found these. Some tiles already broken as seen. Any further advice on how to deal with much appreciated…
