Another light. Just can’t help myself. Unilite’s new IL-375. Adjustable brightness on the making flood, magnets all over and only 6mm wide it’s super low pro. Alloy and composite body, and USB C charging. £40 quid on special at Unilite.
Oh and I took some pics of it on this time. 😅
Insurance on my R with the wife on it is still only £350pa, im 37 with 20 years driving experience and full NCB.
Cost to run on the R is servicing every 24months alternating minor/major and at RPM Technik come in at around £400/£800 respectively.
Discs and pads on mine are Girodisc and Pagid...
Agree, Andy is very helpful. Mine was due to go for taming change and cal earlier in the year, but the hub dyno install wasn't quite complete at the time.
New setup looks good. :)
Been through 3 Karchers and 2 Nilfisks in the space of about 5 years.
Bought a Kranzle TS1050 and never looked back. Different league of build quality to the cheap chinese plastic tat.
Little more money, alot more machine.
Haha, i remember watching an apprentice do exactly that with his work boot. Gleefully kicked it off on a Friday before going home for a long weekend and it landed straight in a full drain tray of diesel oil. Hahaha.
Didnt shine there did ya son! :D
Depends on many factors, mileage, engine usage interval, type of driving done, engine health, forced induction or NA etc.
1000 miles of 20 mile journeys over 4 months in winter vs 1000 mile sprint across Europe over a few days would net a very different outcome.
Couple of little “tinker” jobs on WZD today.
First up was a nice new bonnet release latch. I had planned to buy one and. Luckily found a new part on eBay for £10.50 delivered so couldn’t pass that up.
Because new bits. :D
Second was replacing all the trim clips on the tailgate trim. I hate...
On a non recirculating system as show, its condensation that forms in the cold catch can when the engine is switched off. Some people choose to run a RTS (Return to sump) setup that will allow the oil caught to return to the oil pan. As you can imagine, that amount of condensation is built up...
Fortunately for me, i've never had a fastener on any of my cars put up much of a fight.
With what these bloody things cost, i'm certainly not hitting them with a sodding hammer... f'king butcher!! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
Hard to know for sure but I've hung off them pretty hard with a car on stands. So arguably you could apply even more leverage if the car was on a ramp, but i do all my work on the floor. They're basically Snap On dual 80 slimline heads on a long wrench. They're silky smooth and feel mega.
Then...
