    FL1 Bottom Ball Joint Rubber. anyone used these?

    Yes. I believe not many know that they could be buying tyres that have been on the shelf for a good few years and have not much life left! And many Tyre outlets won't tell you so they can get rid of old stock. Cheers

    FL1 Bottom Ball Joint Rubber. anyone used these?

When I got me old MG, MOT'ed he told me that next year any Tyre over ten years old is a fail regardless of tread depth. So...

    FL1 Spare Wheel Cover.

    Hello all. My spare wheel cover is looking a bit tired and tatty. So looking to replace or if possible do a make over. Any one come across a decent replacement or Vinyl sticky back to go over a faded cover. Union Jack would be good. Cheers.

    Tyre Pressure Gauge.

    Hello all. Thanks for all your advice and comments. I would stay away from the Halfruads gauge that also features in Auto Express article. No where near worth £12.00 plus. My idea is.. Get digital times two for comparison. Cheaper than a new IRD?? cHEERS ALL.

    Hello Nodge68. Will keep an eye out for that. Never thought of ASDA doing oil. I'm told that as long as it meets the spec, as in, the numbers on the rear as well as the front your good to go. The standard set out for the engine. Cheers Nodge.
