    Tyre crack

    i work at kwik fit too...see this a lot, basically it's just the tyre perishing, how old is the tyre? could just be that. But, like the chap said, as long as there are no cords or anything exposed you should be fine to run on it. Does it look like it's cracking a bit in the tread too?

    Flooded Car

    yeah it's all on the cost of what it would be to repair. Usually if a car's engine is submerged in water, it won't run. Hope your's is okay mate!

    What size tyre do i need for 15x6.5" alloys?

    195/45 v 15 usually the standard fitment when you wanna put 15s on a (im guessing) lowered car. That's what my Vavler runs on...only b**ch is it's a bit of an odd ball size, but get on mytyres.co.uk and you can get some Eagle F1s for about £40, just gotta find someone to fit em.

    Recharging the aircon system

    Dont go to kwik fit...i work there...and if there's no pressure they won't do it

    Recharging the aircon system

    Depends where you take it. Most people do a leak test first, and if there's no pressure in the system, most places won't carry on. But if there is, they'll basically go trhough all the checks and refill the refigerant (sp?) And, yeah about £40

    extremely common. Happened to my valver not long ago. Quite easy to fix, and like edde says, cheap part.

    either that or chisel them off. Only problem is, may hurt the alloys...I'd try the socket way first!!

    Help - What tyres for my 172??

    About right. End of the day, tyre companies'll vary dramatically in prices...as long as they're the real deal, that's a pretty good price

    "57 Plate" 1.8 16v mk1 ph1 clio

    I don't really understand that. It's gotta at least be different. It's like that Yellow Williams that turned up on ebay. At least it was different, well, at least the look of it was. Stood out.

    White RSI - Burton Last night

    Woah! Proper madness! Does look smart, but for £2700 insurance, think I'd just say f**k it and get something cheaper for a bit

    MOT?

    Hm. Maybe our MOT tester is just really really harsh. Put it through, at least if it fails cause of it, you should have a free retest within a week

    MOT?

    As far as I lknow, the wiper needs to go back on. They can fail it without.

    Finally Got My Valver!

    I'm hoping mine'll go through, just got a chip on the windscreen that I'm a bit dubious about. But it's all in good nick. It was my brothers before I bought it. But like I say, I work in the right place now to fix it.
