    Repetitive Throttle Body Problems

    If this is the 4th throttle body, it's probably safe to say that this isn't the issue. I can't see all of them failing.

    Camber bolts

    The tab washer pointing inwards towards the car and the arrow pointing the opposite direction will give you max camber iirc.

    If you have access to a garage for a day or two, then a quartz/ceramic sealant is the best you can get. C Quartz UK or the Gyeon range are very good. The latter being a bit more user friendly as it doesn't contain the solvents which flash off as quickly, giving you more working time.

    Poly window cleaning

    Meguiars do a Plast X for this purpose.

    oil change didn’t go as planned

    A proper oil filter tool would have got it undone, but yeah they can be a pain. The 3 claw filter tools are the best if you have the room, followed by long handled filter grips.

    Changed its name to the Metro Vac Air Force Blaster I'm sure. That's the one I have. Try looking for those spares.

    wheel and tyre choice

    AD08R is pretty much the go to all round tyre. Or Michelin PS4 if they do that size.
  16. Mr Trailer Man

    Harness help please :)

    Spreader plate will be held in with the eyebolt. Try and get the eyebolts to be parallel too, like this I I And not running side to side like this _ _ If that makes sense.
  17. Mr Trailer Man

    Harness help please :)

    Yeah the extra angle should help keep them tighter mate as the adjustment buckle will be pulled taut and parallel.
  18. Mr Trailer Man

    Harness help please :)

    No mate, a few inches back will be fine. The angle recommended by Schroth is just recommended, not the be all and end all. Just keep them inline with the sides of the seat, so not coming round the back of the seat.
  19. Mr Trailer Man

    Harness help please :)

    Bit of a pain how the buckle is fixed in place. I'd mount them further back really with eyebolts and spreader plates.

    group N cam timing

    Not too bad then. Is it more or less the same degree of adjustment as the 197 cams?
  23. Mr Trailer Man

    group N cam timing

    What happens timing wise on the inlet with the dephaser, is there a risk of valve to piston contact?
  24. Mr Trailer Man

    group N cam timing

    So 197 cams not really needed then?

    Ignition oil check dissapeard

    It does the same on mine sometimes if i turn the key straight away instead of waiting a second for the fuel pump to prime and then turn over. Give that a try.
  26. Mr Trailer Man

    Harness help please :)

    This is where 5/6 point harnesses come in to their own with the anti sub crotch strap(s). You need to get the waist straps on 4 points nice and tight before you do the shoulder straps. The adjuster buckle usually sits about half way between the seat side hole and the point where the strap is...
  27. Mr Trailer Man

    Can you fit 195/50 r16?

    Yeah, 50% of the width. So the sidewall in this case will be 97.5mm Almost 10mm bigger than a 45 profile.
