    Look forward to seeing this up here.

    Preventative maintenance - 2nd hand coil springs?

    As long as they fit properly they should, otherwise they'll just hold dirt and water and speed up the corrosion process. I'd just coat them in ACF-50 and clean them every 6 months.

    Preventative maintenance - 2nd hand coil springs?

    Think so yeah.
  4. Mr Trailer Man

    Preventative maintenance - 2nd hand coil springs?

    Or get Coyote to do them.

    Preventative maintenance - 2nd hand coil springs?

    Something like that, up that way anyway. It's a guy Jord knows.

    Preventative maintenance - 2nd hand coil springs?

    Tilling Powdercoating in Leyland are cheap.

    Preventative maintenance - 2nd hand coil springs?

    Could probably get them powdercoated for £20.

    Subframe bolts

    Yeah. An impact gun would be ideal to undo the bolts as the shock is a lot less of a force than a constant turning force by hand.

    TomoTek - 182 Track Build here we come!...

    That's a joke that he didn't get a penalty for that!

    182 Track Car Newbie, Any advice?

    Good stoppers and good tyres are the main thing. With 3 people sharing, you're all going to have different driving and braking styles, so decent pads and fluid will be key.

    Recommended wiper blades

    Any of the Gtechniq or Gyeon ones. Could try RainX, but my previous experience is that it causes blade judder.
  12. Mr Trailer Man

    Recommended wiper blades

    Stick some rain repellent on the glass. You use the wipers less then ;)
  13. Mr Trailer Man

    Recommended wiper blades

    Yeah mine does the same, probably 2 inches maybe. Doesn't bother me too much tbh. Not sure of any other way around it.
  14. Mr Trailer Man

    Recommended wiper blades

    How much is it missing? Could try bending the end a bit.

    I've got the Bosch AR21UAR21U on mine. Both 21", no problems really.

    Subframe bolts

    Scrap that, you can access the rears. They're 18mm. Just done a few searches.
  17. Mr Trailer Man

    Subframe bolts

    It's been about 4 years since i've done one, so i can't remember but yeah the rears are different. You can't actually access the nuts on the rear ones iirc.
  18. Mr Trailer Man

    Subframe bolts

    18mm for the bolt head and 16mm for the nut i think. Swan neck spanner will do it.

    182 Gearbox leak

    Yeah just a couple of bolts from memory. Can do it in place.
  20. Mr Trailer Man

    182 Gearbox leak

    Coming from that black cover? That's the 5th gear cover. Could reseal it, but you'll need to drain the oil again first.
  21. Mr Trailer Man

    Whats this and is it kept making clicking noises for ages after turn off and can this drain my battery

    Probably would drain it eventually. Shouldn't be clicking for hours. Get it checked or swapped.
  22. Mr Trailer Man

    Whats this and is it kept making clicking noises for ages after turn off and can this drain my battery

    Electronic throttle body.

    ilya's 172 #BECAUSE_RACE_CAR

    Ahh yeah, should have guessed. It has the blank on the outside for the speed sensor. Good turbos, spool very quick.

    ilya's 172 #BECAUSE_RACE_CAR

    What turbo is that? 2860?

    172 cam timing, cam won’t stay in place

    Stick a long screwdriver down the spark plug holes and watch it go up and down when you turn the engine over, then stop about middle.

    Possibly me (not pro, just handy with a camera)

    172 cam timing, cam won’t stay in place

    The pistons need to be at mid travel before you try and move the cams round, otherwise the valves will hit them. Then set to TDC once the horseshoe is in.
  30. Mr Trailer Man

    172 cam timing, cam won’t stay in place

    Cams 180 degrees out maybe and it's trying to open the valves as you turn it? Take a pic of where the slots are now.
