Setting up a limited company and just selling our own stuff through it, we have about 15 cars between us now that we will all try to sell privately. It'd be easier just to have a little dealership.
I'm on with it. Sadly needing a service then an MOT put pay to that.
Hopefully the weather will sort its self out and the sun will come out in April!
Looking into the possibility of setting up a hobby car dealership with a couple of friends, as I have the space to run it from home and we all...
9 months on I still have it.
I've done 12000 miles in it, and it's just had its first service with me. Needs new rear tyres again. Still at £205 each fitted I can't moan.
I've only done 300 miles in it since Christmas. Seems a waste. I need to get it sold.
Just say in my courtyard atm.
It won't be fuel. Other wise stuff would be popping all over track if a mini with 134bhp/litre was killing its self.
There is something odd with your engine, its under power, eats plugs, and on a 98 only map. It doesn't add up.
You do variable analysis! You don't have enough constants for it...
Sell the cam and use the OEM mapping?
I bet the map is only a tiny bit out. Ignore you did 150 miles on track before it popped. It'll have been going a tiny bit ever since it was fixed.
Change everything people have suggested. Injectors, put a bigger fuel pump in it, change the filter to an...
100% crappy mapping. Probably why it's not making power either. For this to happen twice is more likely to be map related than anything else.
Your "running perfectly" has just been the car slowly eating spark plugs, which isn't perfect in my book.
I'd get:
New coil
New leads
New plugs
Refurbed...
Limited by mapping. Although even remapped ones tend to be flat, just 20lb up.
Apparently the drop off is for heat suppression reasons. This can be mapped out.
Yeah bone standard, on a mix of 95 and 97 ron with 4000 miles on the clock.
Mapping with the current maps would only gain me maybe 15bhp and 20lb/ft.
Revo are saying theirs will be 450bhp/400lb/ft so we'll see....
After contacting them they should, its because they have to reload the new operating system to test them that they aren't interested.
Lazy staff basically.
This gen will map to 430 safely. I just need to find a map that will improve cruising MPG then I might consider it. The Revo maps make them worse at the moment!
I don't like the gearbox. Haldex is a bit dim witted compared to BMW's X drive.
Other than that its great, comfortable, returning 33mpg, sounds epic, reasonably roomy. I'd like some more tech, but I like my gadgets.
One thing I didn't expect is how much I like how it looks. Its really...
Took my launch console into Game to trade in and they wouldn't take it because its formatted! The documents says to format it! God sake.
Turns out they should have taken it, it just takes them time to upload the new software and they couldn't be arsed. f*****s.
