Why would you go capless??

Oh haha, was gonna say! Not too bad at all then.

Wait, so £6k not including the car??

6k?! How much did you pay for the car??

R26 engine, hmm...

Yeah optical pointed me to that guide a few hours later haha, owell, managed it in the end!

Have you not seen the thread of my troubles?! I got the filter off in the end, took me about an hour. Screwdriver in, turn, screwdriver in, and repeat about 10 times. Did it up hand as tight as possible so hopefully its okay next time!

A friend of mine recently bought an octavia, ex taxi, 70k miles. He bumped into a mate who used to work for a local taxi firm and they recognised the car. Because taxis dont have proper mots there is no record of the mileage so the old owner/taxi driver clocked it down from like 200k!

Thanks for the suggestion mate. Gonna be hungover tomorrow, so a job for Sunday. Any other things to look for?

My nuts are tight, and I had new lower ball joints, track rods and track rod ends not long ago, hmm...

So true. Some people talk absolute b****cks! :sleeping:

May just be Gumtree being odd.. when you put in the registration is does the rest! Sorry @Philip.

In the library until 3pm (ish) so will have a look when I go to the car!

I knew I kept my wheel wrench in my boot for a reason!

So on Tuesday I set about an oil change, my first one ever.. oil drained, then got my new tool to remove the oil filter, and it wouldnt grip the filter at all. Somehow, the handle of the tool caught an injector wire and snapped the injector connector. So a lot of hassle, £60 for a new injector...

Vibration seems to be much more noticeable now, its silent when clutch is pressed, but when coming off the gas it vibrates the whole car and the boot plastic shakes a bit!

Just someone I know locally, nice motor. https://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/honda-integra-dc5-type-r-c-pack-82943-miles-bc-racing-coilovers/1210674025

I just bought the eurocarparts one and worked fine. Expensive though! Renparts do them for £32 I think.

Is that filter tool any good? The one I bought was absolutely useless!

Really impressive! How do you have the know how?

:( He broke the brakes himself!

haha do one. Oh, do you actually have a V6?

Just drove 20miles, smooth as a smooth thing. Put 20L of fuel in it and noted the mileage to make sure fuel consumption is normal too.

How much?! Didnt know older 911's like that fetched such money.

Direction of downwards hopefully! They are so high as standard

Yeah I love CS, was a great help. The battery problem, I think it was simply that it wasnt pushed down enough like you said. I took it off, cleaned it up and made sure it had 100% contact and I havent had an issue since!

Nice car. As said, love the RX7! Look forward to seeing your mods, dont spend too much!

I forgot I may be working this Saturday, but ive asked for it as annual leave, fingers crossed!

Thanks for the tip mate, fair point!

Yes mate, thanks for your help!
