I keep seeing a red Triumph GT6 driving down my street - will try and get a photo. Never seen one on the road until this one. Great looking and sounding thing!

Megane conversion time!

I want to see something like this!

I remember the lowering springs on my '98 Corsa B being loose enough to remove by hand if you jacked it up, it went through an MOT fine. This was 18 years ago though, so of very little use to you in this situation.

@Spookyneil Any more news mate?

Maybe getting to the bottom of the issue would have stopped an accident happening?

The car wasn't much to look at, but the damage to the wall etc was pretty significant

Optimistic rollers or has it had some engine work other than the remap?

The AP's sorted it out!

Are you on stock suspension? Mine was like yours when it was just on lowering springs (when I bought it, they were only on a week!)

I'm on AP's, at about 30mm lower than OE and it's a really nice ride IMO. I've not been in a std one to compare as mine had some Eibach springs on when I bought it - which were awful! I do need to wind it down a bit more now though!

If you liked the super blue, just get the none dyed equivalent? Same specs etc, it just doesn't have the blue colour.

@McGherkin

Either that or just badly fitted the last time it was put on of course.

Just PM'd you mate - 99% sure it'll be the charger pulley not seated properly

Sounds drag related then!

@Goodj Something like these? https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/222609238026 5x139.7 wtf are the wheels off? Seems to be an American size from my quick Google searches

I wouldn't drive it with the wrong belt personally. If the belt does manage to come off the tensioners can get damaged, as can the bottom pulley. The noise is likely to be the belt slipping, and it won't be doing the tensioner any favours either as it will be well outside it's optimal position...

You should be able to get a sniffer test done on it to rule out (or confirm) HG failure. It checks the coolant expansion bottle for combustion gases.

As long as the dish location is suitable for the aerial? You'll need to check the direction of the TV aerials to be sure too. Where does the current TV aerial terminate? Is it in another room or don't you know where it is? The satellite feed you have - is it a single or double f-type connection?

Is the TV just used for Freeview, i'm only asking as you've no need for an aerial with Sky/Virgin. If it were me, I'd be chasing it into the wall, down to floor level (wherever it comes into the house now) then run it under the skirting board if possible (hidden by the carpet). However it would...

Me too (of course, I started the thread!) I'll give them a ring and see what dates they have, what are folks thinking? February some time? we will probably have to get 10+ cars together to get them to open up for the day, so it'll only be a provisional thing until we get enough committed. IIRC...

Personally I would still get a cordless one. I used to have the Clarke wired one, but just found it to much hassle do barely got used. I picked up a small Makita impact driver for <£60 off Amazon (albeit a bare unit as I had batteries and charger already). Only has a max torque of 160nm, but so...

Might need to clean this - not sure the old bill would be ok with my plate!!

In what?!?

I replaced some Pilot Sport 3's with some Hankook V12's and found them pretty much on par tbh. Good tyres for the price.

The issue in your vlookup is you've told it to give you the values from column 3, but your table only contains 2 columns. Change the 3 to a 2.

Makes you wonder how the human race made it this far without having nappy bins or light up thermometers.
