RESTORING MY CHEAP VW GOLF R32 | PART 1

[@TRHamza]

R32 gets a tidy up! Still a bunch to do but atleast it's more usable now. BIG Scirocco update coming in a few days!

Cant wait for the rocco video 👌🔥

[@TheoFennel]

I've been trying to send you a message on IG but you never answer. Need your opinion on a full pump on my golf.

[@loyalty786]

Hi, TR Hamza the r32 looks familar, any chance you bought this vehicle from the South West?

[@aaa_batteries]

Always a good day when TR uploads! 🔥🔥 Waiting for that R50, can't wait for the mad trio! R32 looking much nicer now.

[@stephenbouck]

this video just made my whole week better lol always fun watching u wrench on these VWs keep up the awesome work man!!!!

[@TRHamza]

Thanks mate! Plenty more to come :)

[@stephenbouck]

@@TRHamza cant wait im excited

[@andybrooks7908]

Hamza you do everything properly and ur videos are a joy to watch

[@TRHamza]

Appreciate the kind words thank you!

[@BerwhaleTheAvenger-b5s]

I had a 2006 Golf GTI that VW replaced the wings on FOC. They didn't refit the foam bits!😂

[@willwhomack2838]

If you’re not too bothered about the fog and reverse light been the wrong way round, you can bell the fog and reverse feed out and swap them over mate saves you dismantling the Valeo’s👍🏻

[@TRHamza]

Thanks for the tip! I might just do that 👌🏼

[@joelb2660]

@@TRHamzaif you do that, you’ll fail the MOT. you can easily remove the rear part of the light and swap them over. Use a sharp blade to remove the melted plastic pegs on the back, then you can swap. Refix them either with some glue or by melting the plastic together with a soldering iron. 👍🏻

[@willwhomack2838]

⁠@@TRHamzaas for the connectors too mate, black plug you plugged in is for lumber support and maybe heated seats? Not too sure what else, 2pin connector is for seat belt pre tensioner and yellow connector is for airbag👍🏻

[@Singh-qy4ps]

It’s crazy how good your videos are these days. Been watching for years now good to see you progressing

[@Leo-xc9pr]

Early MK5s have a different airbag plug (yellow plug). You can easily solve this with some adapters from ebay. The little black plug from your Scirocco seats however are for the heated seats. In early MK5s they are connected to the car over the main plug (big one). So you basically have look at the main plug from your old seats and pin them in accordingly.

[@Leo-xc9pr]

Also, the ealry models have a control unit for the heated seats on BOTH seats. Later models only have one control unit on the passenger side and it is connectet with a wire to the other side. So it's not so easy as it might seem. Just done a seat conversion on a 2004 MK5 to later seats from a 2008 MK5 Model. Basically took the old seat consols with the old wirrering harnesses to make it work. Probably you don't get the airbag light because the original bucket seats don't have a side airbag. It is deactivated in the airbag control unit by factory. So even if you attach the yellow airbag blug with an adapter it will not work in a crash. If you want it to work you have to change it in the control unit. But I have no idea if it will work with VCDS.

[@anthonybrand6137]

Being a former Mk V R32 owner myself (a 5 door in Tornado Red), I am looking forward to see which direction you will take this cheap Mk V R32. It's already starting to look so much better with the bodywork you've done so far, so pls. hurry up with the next episode! 👍👍

[@DesolationTech]

little brother meets big brother! loving the content hamza!

[@manualgarage]

The pair look great together just missing the R50, hopefully see that on your channel soon great work👌

[@chesspiece81]

BOOSTED R32 build YES!!! I'm spoiled living in the southern part of the United States we seldom have to battle rusty vehicles. We don't have any snow or road salt to deal with.

[@TRHamza]

Lucky! Cars here start looking brown underneath after just a few years, but again it's worse up north (Scotland etc). Theres always the odd exception though, as long as its priced accordingly!

[@Afraz_9n3]

​@@TRHamzadoesnt help that most people dont look after their cars or even clean them too😂😂 thankfully my little Polo doesnt have much rust only a little bit on the drivers wing

[@chesspiece81]

@@TRHamza so.....about that boosted VR6 build?

[@hyper8545]

My mk5 rabbit had emblem rust on hatch after 2 years ownership. Few days at maaco and they fixed it well 👍💪🤙

[@robertswan1722]

Following this, just bought an 08 plate r32 in DBP with the elusive wingbacks, fixed the issues it had with control module, wasn’t locking and now currently taking the rubbish mods off and putting back to standard, back lights swapped out for originals, it has the bbs ch off the edition 30 on it so will swap them out in future. Also has a coloured coded grill. Very well painted but looks rubbish. I’m also in Scotland btw, corossion on mine is on lower sill and round the back badge

[@paulfarman8861]

New lights have the back looking wider! Big fan of them

[@kevinvandorst]

Still the best car ever made! That sound 😍😍😍

[@Markosbourne24]

Lol

[@hreynolds7980]

Can’t wait to see what you do to tackle the door sils, I have to do mine soon and have been looking for different options to fix them

[@samoopsd]

You can code the rear lights (VCDS) to swap the reverse and fog light to have them work correctly, I guess the only issue is MOT as I believe the rear fog must be on the driver's side..

[@uHcoMHRk]

This must be the best duo of car any VW enthusiast can have.

[@robertchalmers8487]

I think those different wheels look much better anyway 🙂! Plus love the new tail lights

[@esolomoso4100]

The loom looks long enough to run the cables to the opposite sides for the inner lights. 13:28

[@petermeister7191]

i owned a 3-door R32 of this type from 2005-2008 with DSG, it was a great car having an incredible sound, but also some call-back issues already new! Became a new transmission within the first year of ownership...

[@tommieantcliff1487]

Can’t wait to see all your cars fully restored for real bro keep up the hard work it will eventually pay off

[@stephengraham6194]

That made some difference and it looked so easy. Loving the channel

[@malikie90]

Hamza back with a bang mods looking mad always a vw fan, eBay is good for all parts I can’t wait to see the r50 complete the whole set that would bang then but keep it up bro

[@AndreasMüller-l5s]

You have to buy the bucket seats! They are awesome 👍🏻

[@chimps4gimps]

I remember the M140 putting a big smile on your face. The prices have dropped so much recently so might be worth another punt.

[@samdub]

Really enjoying this R32 project!

[@yasarramzan8016]

Hamza you make it look sooo easy man. I just barely wash my car and you changing wings and seats and bootlids and all sorts. Make me feel lazy 😂😂😂 jokes aside your smashing it brother ❤

[@TRHamza]

😂 We all feel like we can do more haha, And thank you brother!

[@jonathonbrett-qn1ic]

Love your channel and love the R32 R36 Always looking forward to your new episodes I have a 06 R32 black magic pearl and cherish it in my garage I’ve spent a lot to make it mint Brilliant work thank you good luck

[@Terrifier1991]

Love the sound of these also the R36 very nice and rare motor😊

[@JoshXCVIII]

The price for the tailgate seemed like a steal! Good job mate, excited for the next one!

[@ashleighpuchala]

Currently doing a r32 right now so i cant wait to see how this turns out

[@yhshah21]

Be sure to get that rust on them sill sorted. Loving this content!

[@JC_46]

I have the zolders on my DBP R32 (they came with 55 and 06 cars with the omanyt coming on 07 onwards IIRC) I actually prefer the zolders and agree it’s more MK4 esque. Pain to keep clean though! Love this content it’s so much better than the driving vids imo 👌🏻

[@jonathanmacfarlane7275]

Also get the valeo lights on the mk5 Jetta only on some models, I’ve got them on a 2.0 TFSI makes the car look newer then what it is 👌🏻 loving the mk5 R32 build

[@kieranbarclay83]

Lovin your work ,,keep it up cant get enough of the vw content🤟

[@aqeeb141]

Loving these videos bro mashaAllah, keep up the consistent content!

[@Irvysan]

Great to see this build progressing Hamza ❤🎉

[@SKROHAAN22]

The car is coming together quickly and starting to look clean was waiting for this video, lots of surport from South Africa brother 🤝💥🔥💪👌

[@fmarinosfromafar9512]

Good move to go for the Omyants, those Zolders (and the Solitudes on the B6 Passat) are an absolute pain to keep clean - too many spokes!

[@neilmartin110]

Nice ! I really liked my MK5 R32 could have done with some forced induction though. R50 with a V10 TT RS6 engine next!

[@SauceBossProds]

Should give the skyline mod a go on the valeos, I've done it on my Jetta and looks incredible

[@M39brown]

should i keep my MK5 R32? having multiple electrical issues. 1st gear hopes the engine i put new stock mounts but didnt solve the problem. someone said my driveshaft bushing needs to replaced. have experienced any 1st gear hop? also 1st ignition coil popped out with spark plug should i get a new block or whats my best option? still attached sounds great every time has high flow catts with APR muffler. want to turbo but worried about trans handle the power has 130k on trans

[@kentandra14]

dont forget to change the rear fog lamp bulb on r32! blue is really nice!!!

[@stevesje71]

Great video. I’ve a mk5 exactly the same with 11k miles from new. I love the mk5

[@fourpipes]

I love what you doing TM…. Giving life back to old legends. Great content bro 👍🏻👍🏻

[@iaincampbell411]

Your content is next level and the level of effort put into these builds is impressive- long time subscriber and you’ve come a long way from your driveway projects 👌

[@brettsmith6010]

When i had my r32 you used to produce loads of mk7 content. Now i have a mk7 R and and you have the r36 and r32 resto videos. I miss my r32 and these videos aren't helping 😢. Great videos as always, keep it going 👍

[@hamzaq7466]

Been watching since the s3 days ,Mashallah you have grown so much

[@CarMenTals]

Good job, looks way better now! But i prefer de oem r32 seat over the scirocco ones. It Just looks off.

[@Mk5.maniac]

euro tails makin me jealous, I got some that ended up being ripoffs with part of the LEDs dead, now I can only find the tail lights for around 600 bucks

[@luhako6820]

I love your restoration videos, just good stuff

[@alexrobinson5922]

Always love seeing a hamza video pop up in my subscriptions

[@aqib2000]

Simply extend the wires for fog and reverse so they work

[@johnnysurr]

I'm really thinking about buying an r32 they sound epic,love your builds Hamza😊

[@TRHamza]

Great solid cars, definitely recommend if you don't mind the running costs! And thank you 🙂

[@Afraz_9n3]

Make sure to check everything on them a lot of these get crashed because of boy racers thinking they have more talent than they do

[@keithsutherland4671]

Really enjoying these videos! Love a good restoration! Keep up the good work bro😁💪

[@nabeelkazmi]

9:20 why is it common to be rusty around the badge area on the trunk/boot ?

[@R19Robbin]

The VR6 king of youtube 👌

[@jamestyrrell2225]

Couldnt you just tap into and extend the wires across the tailgate for the reverse/fog so they work as they should but are just on different sides? Way easier than splitting the lenses off

[@kase1983]

intrested in how you sort the seat plusg out, my front seats are shot and looking for options..

[@hspd8607]

Is it possible to do a twin charge? I am just curious

[@MiniEggs1999]

You want to get that sill sorted before you think about painting?

[@EMC9]

Hi TR, have you ever had any problems with a soaking wet passenger footwell? Any ideas of what i could check to stop it? There is enough water to house ducks. 3door mk5 edition 30 gti no sunroof. thanks

[@chezpicker]

Waiting for the non res miltek i had one sounds epic tr👌👌

[@Connellski1986]

Tinted rear glass as well

[@andyhopkinson2708]

Have a look at Wigan vag for seats. Maybe slightly damaged ones as well.

[@TRHamza]

I'll give em a call, theres always the odd set that comes up now and again

[@snickersnz5520]

Hyped for part 2 🎉

Patiently waiting for those side skirts to come off and see what’s underneath 👀😂👍🏻

[@kingchooet9966]

Could you let me know what part number the foam thing is that is on top of the battery? Mine is missing and i think it is R32 specific.

[@abdulnasserlawi7619]

Cant wait for the touareg build!!!!!!

Great work Hamza as always 💪🏻

[@Comisionado]

Was looking forward to this one and it's not a Sunday.

[@AM-xf8mu]

If the inner rear lights are going to be original keep it all original, it will look better. Unless there's a way to flip the inner ones so the fog and reverse are changed

[@_Kela]

Smashing it

[@peterarries7879]

Looking well better 👌

[@sadz5qcg]

Best bucket seats for a s3 8p ? Don’t really have 2k for s3 wingbacks

Coming along nicely!
