    Electrical oddities after long drive...

    Fog light symbol flashing up will possibly be the rear earths on the tail lights.

    What have you ordered? *Detailing*

    Nice little order there mate.

    Workshop lighting

    I have a Milwaukee work light which runs off the same batteries as my impact guns and drills. It's not magnetic but it does have hooks to attach it to most things. Might be worth looking at something like that if you have similar cordless tools?

    Track car wrapping

    Do it. Few rolls of vinyl and it'll be done in a few hours.

    Anyone give me an idea of parts cost from Renault - 197 just been hit up the back

    Will probably cost him in the region of 10k to fix yours and his. Last thing he should be worried about is the cost of his insurance going up ?

    Technically it should be fully cured already, i'm guessing it was baked in the spray booth? I say a week just to let any solvents and gases to air out. Use the microfibre cutting pad and a compound to give it a quick cut and then refine it.

    I'd wait a week or so before polishing the spoiler.

    Non of my Washers not working

    Yeah they do. Can't remember if the wiper linkage has to come out to get the bottle out. Was ages ago when I did mine last.

    Looks good. The microfibre pads work really well on a DA. Gtechniq C4, Carpro Dlux or Gyeon Trim for the plastics.

    lumpy and juddery idle HELPPP!!!

    A genuine magnetti marelli one would be better.

    Non of my Washers not working

    Probably the pump, there's a seal inside that swells over time and they leak internally so the impeller can't produce the pressure needed to pump the fluid.

    Shouldn't be a problem without a spoiler for tonight. The glass is sealed all round anyway. Just bag the electrical stuff up.

    You definitely need the shorter struts. SGS do them. Just refit the cup spoiler for now, only 2 screws.

    Have you got the shorter boot struts?

    My 200 will not start ?

    Yeah it's dead. Check that the alternator is kicking out the right power when you stick a new battery on.

    Upgrade from Bilstein B14s - BCs? Much difference in DS/BR?

    550lb is about 10kg! 8kg/8kg is a good allrounder.

    Upgrade from Bilstein B14s - BCs? Much difference in DS/BR?

    I'm guessing you mean DR not DS. 100% go for the DR, better valving all round. The older BR valving can be quite crashy because the valve dampening can't keep up.

    Thicker oil in a 172?

    Yeah we probably do actually lol. The Redline was recommended by Northloop on here after he rebuilt my box and fitted a diff. You not get on with it?
  22. Mr Trailer Man

    Thicker oil in a 172?

    Yeah i put the Redline MTL in my box and change once a year, it's about £70 worth ?

    Thicker oil in a 172?

    Haha, don't get me wrong good oil is good. Only put the best in my gearbox. Money to burn ?

    Thicker oil in a 172?

    I use Triple QX 5w40 from Euro ? It's RN700/710 spec so it's good enough for me. About £18 for 5L Regular changes with a cheaper oil is better than leaving a decent brand in for longer, IMO of course.
  25. Mr Trailer Man

    Thicker oil in a 172?

    I doubt many use 5w50, not that common of a grade. 10w50 is the usual next grade up. A thicker oil is just masking the problem though i think, you're better to look into why it's using it in the first place and go from there.
  26. Mr Trailer Man

    Thicker oil in a 172?

    Yeah, mine does 5k a year including a few track days. I probably top up no more than 200ml over the year.

    Thicker oil in a 172?

    Mine uses a little bit, but then it is weeping out the sump gasket ?
