Yeah I didn't think that was clever when I posted it. Sorry, Ben.
RDS - Rapid Dirt Shifter - a product from DemonShine/CarPlan that's £6 for a litre bottle from Halfords, ASDA, few other places. It's a wax safe pre-wash product, so dissolves dirt. Similar to AutoFinesse Citrus Power (check out...
Far too OTT, Baller.
Drive in, spray on RDS and WWHW, pay for jet wash to let it dwell, brush wheels, jet wash off, towel down.
Drive (500 yards) home, tyre shine, C2V3 all over, done.
HELLO
Exactly this. CP or RDS spray down at the jet wash, go pay, come back and it's worked its magic, jet wash off, towel down and/or drive off. In fact I'll be doing it this weekend and using Hydr02.
Not any more lad. Run one through the house. And I'm on the ground floor.
I use to take it to the local jet wash, spray on a pre-wash and then jet it down. But it left tide marks as the water coming out of the j/w was so hard.

£6.99 though Ant. Let me try the iOBD2 first when the wifi port arrives on Thursday and I'll feedback. No point spending if it's no different. I only want faults, rpm/speed/0-62-100 and MAF anyway.

Re: My new car. TTQS
Cheers for the link, just didn't fancy paying £6.99 for it to be as laggy as some have reported! Bought the Elm327 though, so thanks for that. Comes with a year's warranty as well which is nice peace of mind.
Sort that bay out! Or come to a meet and I'll do it!
Re: My new car. TTQS
CP4L were out of stock when I looked :( and when you say "proper K&N" do you mean it's a K&N filter i.e. oiled? As that'll knacker the MAF, so those 225g/s (you barsteward) won't last long!
And I presume that's a Samsung app as can't find it for the iPhone/iPad :(

Also, what are you using to log buddy? Looks like a useful app. Tempted to buy a Bluetooth OBDII dongle so I can log on the go. Getting the laptop (with a s**t battery) out all the time is flipping annoying.
No worries, Joe. I was tempted to test its degreasing abilities against Verso as well, but as CP is wax safe, I felt the two aren't as comparable and it's a waste of CP!
Proper job! That would be a great test bed. Is is protected?
Pretty much my thinking as I take advantage of the 342 that some retailers do for AF products.
Haha, see, again, this is the thing. CP is superb, but due to the cost, it's definitely a Summer vs wax product, rather than a Winter vs...
LTT is my preferred, Boberton. And you don't need to feed it. The Billywithabuffer that's done your brother's will have used a leather "milk". As most modern leather is sealed anyway, this just sits on the surface, hence the shiny look.
Dab of LTT cleaner on a soft brush (buy a set of Kiwi shoe...
That's kind, RDR - yeah, more than happy to compare - perhaps bring some to the next meet we attend and I'll bring the rest of my CP and another bottle of RDS?
Completely agree, Andy. As far as I see it, this is something that is well worth doing but is another added cost. As we know, the more...
This is a completely unbiased review...
Good.
So I love this product. I've used it a lot, always had excellent results and so has every other keen clean bean on this, and most other, forums.
But to get into it a little more, it's worth noting there are (as always) other products on the...
Kingy, follow Jim on Facebook if you have it. It shows up his work. A lot of people have the gear. Very few have the eye. The man is brilliant at what he does.
Re: My new car. TTQS
Sorry, Al, edited the wrong post/reply.
TomSx where did you order the blueprint filter from? Strange that it was that much? eBay was £23 delivered last time I looked!
Chip mentioned flow testing in the first reply - I'd suggest that might be a good route to go down. As my car is 12 years old, I'm sending mine off to this guy soon...
