New mini mate ! vile things !! she saw it and bought it with out me looking because she like the colour!! (bit silly when your boyfriends a mechanic ) but apparently i pick holes in everything :P (IMO just finding things that need replacing) Well long story short that cost her big time cause...

Depends on how the removed the rad, if the took the front top panel off and didnt replace it the same as the need lining up with the bonnet hinge , thats the only thing i can think of as to why ! If not there should be no reason to adjust/touch the bonnet ! Im guessing here , i cant remember...

may sound silly but try and pull off a little quick in the rain, if it cuts the power no its not off, never heard of anyone having problems could be a switch problem or as said a bulb!

hi ben welcome to the fourum and in short very easy to fit the cat on a 182 as its a inline cat so 4 bolts 2 at the front 2 at the rear (unless its been sleeved in which case you are pretty shafted ) a 172 cat WONT fit without modification, but the 182 cats normally go 10 a penny on here in the...

i wouldnt quite say they did anything wrong but they have have removed the front panel to get the rad off, best thing is pop down and ask them , us mechanics are pretty reasonable , lol just pop down ask them have a look cause the bonnets sitting higher than it used too, chances are they will...

Another vote for the skoda one ! to cheap and easy to fit to consider the daft molah for another imo

yeah belts really , check box is good, and check the usual stuff , tyres and brakes etc, it soon adds up if it needs 4 tyres and rear discs and pads like mine did !!

I did my MOT course today , as far as im awear not , may telling you something on VSI but if i was testing the car and it did that id fail it too !!

The rear brake valve is why the rear service brake is crap its siezed thats you problem with the service brake , the parking brake needs to be 16% efficient so may need cables or adjusting or even callipers if they are knackered shockers depends on warranty with them see what warranty they...

If it fixed it , it prob was them , id get it plugged in and shed some light on it, more than likely coil pack though !

sound a good one to me ! its as soon as you load the power on the vibration ! have you checked all the mounts ? dog and bone mount and both top ones ?

This ^^ Maybe i missed but i was under the impression that you fitted the injectors its knocked and never stopped? did it go off after fitting the 80s? cause i thought it never ran after ? And regards to saving , depends mate it might not even come to that but basically depends if the rings...

Prob coil pack get it plugged in to be sure , if the light comes on it stores a code so that will tell you something mate

Yeah id wait see what the compression test shows ! hopefully something basic mate ! fingers crossed for you and keep us in the loop mate hope you get it sorted ! Could be something basic yet i'm jumping a little in the deep end i guess ! if the noise didn't clear on revving sounds bad!! like i...

Without experiencing its hard to say !! best thing do is take it a garage get it looked at unless you know a thing or two about cars , if so get under and have a good tug at the drive shafts check for play in the CV joints on lock! check they look straight (although its hard to tell unless they...
