give your insurance a call they should be able to recommend where to take it and it probs wont cost you anything. Ive got a similar chip in mine and it passed the MOT the other day however, it also passed with no cat aswell lol

hmmmm, looks like im going to be carrying my can of WD4 round with me for a while then How do you know it 'will' come back?

Well I've just taken the plug out and sprayed it all with some WD40 and all is fixed now. ???????

any idea how to tell which it is out of the two?

Started the car this morning and it was idling at 2.5k, after driving the engine management light came on and it would rev above 3k So when i plugged it into my RS Tuner, the faults shown were 'Inconsistency between track 1-2 pedal' and 'Throttle pedal position track 2' any ideas?

this is where parking over two spaces has its benefits. i once got a ticket for doing it telling me i had to buy two tickets. luckily the guy next to me gave me his ticket so i then had two and got away with it However, ^^this is not always possible which is why my car is slowly getting close...

what do i need to take the hub off? Torque does it need to go back on?

When braking my ABS seems to be cutting in when i brake, not all the time just when its slightly heavier than normal. From looking at a couple of threads on here it may be the ABS ring. Where are these? How do i check them? How do i replace them if they are broken/faulty? cheers all

Right managed to get them off. Had to hammer the key on then buzz then off with the gun the hammer the key off the nut. Did this for each one as the key ended up fucked. Just replaced them with the standard bolts for the minute.

i thought this but the locking nut has like a ring round the inside to try stop this happening I also thought of this so may give this a try first. Im just hoping that it doesnt f**k the locking key up lol cheers all

I was in the process of cleaning the inside of the alloys on my 172 yesterday and whilst i had the wheels off i decided to clean and paint the calipers. All was going ok until i got to the drivers side locking nut. The locker just slipped off and now i cant get it to stay in with out slipping...

Phw M999NAS in Islington, London. Stood on a balcany looking at your car

UPDATE fitted the new front struts today, only took me just over and hour and it handles sooooo much better now. Ive also been offered a CUP spoiler that i may have to snap up along with some cup turinis. All coming at once atm which is good and bad.
