^ Which is also a PITA at times! :)

SERV light on again today and Oil ----- flashing after having to park facing uphill! FFS Checked it 10 mins ago, pulled in on way home & let it cool on the flat (cold as when it was topped up) down 1 bar on the dash and a slight fraction under halfway on the stick - it's done 20 miles! Will...

Not sure what's going on, but ran it out to a quiet flat spot few miles from home - let her cool for 20 mins. Checked level, added some and checked again until it was about halfway between the markers. The dash always says there is less oil in if the car is parked facing up hill - but sure the...

What's it having done? :) Mines having a bit of work done this month - mostly mechanical/service and hope to get my Yellow parts done Silver I'm heading from Dungannon - feck knows what route I'll take too - will suss that out this week and update here with RV points Might also be a good idea...

Ph1 more than welcome (have you got Mikey's old Ph1?) lol Do we have a 182 and a 200 coming guys? Rattling my brains for photo ideas already :)

Hope this link loads onto here ok - but here's what I have in mind...

My 2003 172 had the lower inlet RS stamped - doubt it was modified in any way it had 17k miles on it when I bought it in 2007

Are you serious? :p Portrush...... I'm still up for the 12th Jan folks

Oh dear. We'll shoot the good side then ;) PS - anyone able to lend a hand fitting shocks & springs anytime soon?

OK folks.... whether or not you's pull the 29th off - how does Sunday 12th Jan sound? Thinking of a drive up round Ballycastle/Balintoy & a run through the country for some pics at the famous Dark Hedges

Still more comfortable (especially on country roads) than 3year old KTR coilovers I'd like to think

TBH if there's any truth in this - I give up! (changing the car anyway) Went from std shocks & Sportlines to KTR coilovers to Konigsports - back to KTR coilovers as I needed funds and soon to have these Cup shocks/Cooksports on

Or new ones? ;)

Would be awesome! :) But you do realise that only leaves today & tomorrow lol

In my experience a ClioSport meet is much more civilised than appearing at one of these bigger events where you always get one who shows everyone up :( Probably why I lost a lot of interest in the whole car scene in the last few years - even going on random photoshoots of my own car! Time to...

I'll have comparison pics from KTR coilovers to Cup shocks & Cooksport springs in about 2 weeks time if that's any good :)

If it's fitted - it must work. Depending on what mood your MOT guy/girl is in Mine failed on a washer this year

What time is it at Dean?

Rant all you's want.....has nobody noticed that the car in the OP seems to have double glazing?! :eek:

Thanks for the responses guys :) Oil on the stick & around the cap seems clean. New breather gasket & VVT seal fitted on last change in March this year too. Also some oil is pooling where the lower inlet meets the head. (been like that since I've owned it) Belts are due and dephaser is...

Earlier in the year I was topping up about 900ml in around 650 miles - the dash is always wrong! If the car is parked with the front facing uphill - the dash throws on the SERV light & flashes oil ------ When I check the dipstick at regular intervals I get different readings.....on the same...

Table isn't even straight ;)

I may have a day free before Christmas now :) will update soon

I'd be more than happy to get a wee shoot somewhere over the Christmas holidays If we think of a few locations I can do some asking around for permission for photographs ;)

On that note (no pun intended) if any of you lot like music - I'll be shifting my Audio Advice setup in the new year Weekend coming could be the only weekend I have off before Christmas itself as I'm flat out in the bar/photography

Mine failed on that too & rear caliper binding earlier this year + xenon washers not spraying :/ My belt buckle was fixed there & then though - was a small stone in it! If you haven't already tried that - do it lol :)

I got the custom one on a GB on here a while back - still unfitted and I'm changing the car soon so will be up for sale

Anyone used them with FK's - Konigsports in particular?

HP Envy's look decent :) looking at one myself earlier today

I'm in Dungannon, of all places! Who all's in?
