If the cats were out the post cat lambdas would show a deficiency 🤔

You see, cake makes it all better... Damn... That's what I'm missing😱

Had a cup of coffee and a chocolate brownie whilst I prepped the new side steps to go on the rangey. Then pressure tested the AC system, found a hole in the condenser, drank more coffee and ate the other 11 brownies in a fit of depression, then...

It could be the handbrake. A lot of cars do it. As the sus drops the angle of the arm changes at the rear and can force the handbrake a little. Your on cable and not electric aren't you @gold rover? 🤔

I've gone off mars bars. I'm on a Double Decker fad at the moment.

I like your hat😜

And your trusty 38' in the background 👌

À collector hey🤔.. 🫣

Oh happy days :D :D 👍

Lemforder or meyle, sometimes meyle do HD versions of some parts. Febi are now buying everyone else's stuff and boxing it up like, continental do😩

I got another toy!! I mean.. p38

Dont forget the dished washers on the pump mounts go a certain way they should dish )( that way not (). and whey only need to be nipped up not screwed down tight

A big no to moog parts, utter crap lad 😞

I put a moog joint on the other week with the much appreciated help from @Flossie and I'm pretty sure it's rattling again already

Have already ordered full set of Delphi's . But thanks for the offer 👍

New MF31-1000 battery ordered for delivery tomorrow hopefully even though the old one is still showing 12.7v from last night.

A phone call to a guy with all the right tools whose done the job before numerous times and he can fit me in Friday so not turning him down

blimey! appreciate its less work.. but trying to get mine booked in was going to be a month

had an argument with a pot hole the other day and had problems with driver side front. Juddering and pulling to the right when driving. Got it up to the yard this morning for it to be looked at and damaged bottom ball joint was found to be the...

Make sure you can get the filler open before you undo the drain. A normal 1/2 inch square socket fits perfectly.

Thank you very much! these seem to be nuances - I have now refilled maybe 50-150 ml and it is perfect! Super! Now comes the differential oil.

You'll loose some in the new filter. If your piston rings are all good then it might take a while to run down into the sump. Always fill, run for a few minutes and then top off.

Did you fill the new filter before spinning it on? I doubt it makes loads of difference, but it might make a bit.

Shouldn’t need time. Mine drains down to the sump pretty quickly. Do you know where the oil was before you started? At the end of the day, you need to fill the oil until it’s at the top mark on the dipstick. On mine, the difference between the...

That's exactly what I was thinking about. I will do the change again after 1-2k KM. I'm afraid that the last oil change was in 2022 - with extremely few killometres.

Thank you! I have now had another look. Exactly at minimum. I'm topping up a little. But the car is currently standing a little uphill - I'll keep an eye on it. Do I have to worry that the old oil was a little thick (deposits at the bottom of...

If the new oil you added has cleaning agents in it, it will probably loosen up a decent amount of gunk. So i would do another oil change reasonably soon. The how soon would be based on how dirty i think the engine is and how expensive the new oil is.
