Monaco 172 51 plate in the Mander centre carpark today about 5pm
silver 172 with coloured bullets and, if i'm honest gash wheels, Stourbridge road a449 by the closed "Mad O'rourkes"
When coming back saw an albi blue 200/197 on the a449 parked on a drive
also saw a perfectly done a-team van...
Ive found this too, today when pulling off the drive it feels a bit hesitant. Theres enough power, but you can just tell its not quite "right" but then it'll clear and be fine. Saying that where it wouldnt idle when you first switched on, it tried to sit at 500rpm, fired up OK on the next crank...
Saw this three times today, once when going to work, once when coming bam and now it's driving around my area blasting garage tunes and annoying everyone with its twin exit exhaust
I just had the plastic under tray off and the plastic cover on the foam is ripped, thus making one weighty oily sponge. Gunk and a hose sorted that so now I'll know if I get any leaks, and not just residual oil lurking on the tray.
Yeah I'm going to ask for a part refund for the following: cable ties used, oil loss, screws not tight, wrecked gaitors not even anything to do with the job. I dont think thats an unfair request to get some money back, even if its only for my time. Only thing he did right was put grease on the...
Its that clip, behind the rubber/plastic donut halfway along that shaft above. Shaft can pull out slightly and leak as that black donut and part of the shaft just sit inside the small end of the gaitor. I'd jubliee clipped it but obviously he still wrenched it out
Exactly, its not much but when it pops out it makes a right old mess. Least they could have done is said it'll need some more gearbox oil, good job I didnt thrash the car on the way home and checked it asap
100% I only checked the gaitors this morning AND last night as I'm anal about it. If you pull the shaft out of the box, on the nearside it doesnt come all the way out due the big screwed on gaitor but can slide out of its seal on the small end enough for it to gush oil if the driveshaft is...
Yeah thats it, I just thought "nah CV boot aint rocket science any monkey can do that". Whole point of them doing it so was so I wasnt willing to get too oily, I'll make a note of that TCR place mate thanks, couldnt believe it when I looked underneath to inspect the work - he'd obviously had the...
Just drained the box oil - 1 litre down on normal levels, they didn't even tell me theyd lost any oil. Might have to go set fire to this place bunch of f***s
