I work in finance, naturally need my moneys worth ?

Managed to get the use out of these but did wonder why my grip had gone ? up to that point they were fine though.

So, after this absolute plonker blocked me in the car park yesterday I was late for my MOT so rearranged for Saturday. However, I’m so glad I don’t commute in this thing lol. Also, been let down on the steering wheel. Thankfully got my money back but annoyed I’ve missed another one in the...

I like to call it getting my moneys worth for the 12 months aka yes leaving it late ?

I’m waiting for that 3 sides of a4 on weds night ?

I’ve just put a wrap on mine to get rid of that white bit and looks quite good IMO for £10 I think it was. Thought the actual light upgrade was quite expensive.

Guaranteed to be that then lol.

Reason I ask is I’m getting a strange noise in mine under load aswell. It sounded like it might be baffle related aswell. It’s going up on a ramp weds so I can have a look what the issue might be. Didn’t know if it was a leak, the cat or the exhaust.

What’s the issue out of interest?

Haha I’ll bear that in mind. Thanks for heads up

That didn’t hang around long at all! And neither did you ? looks smart in black. I’m going to get myself on this PH thread you keep referring to as seems where most of the dealing seems to be!

Good to know. Cheers. I normally use the NGK iridium platinum on turbo cars as they seem best. Will stick them in and see what happens lol if not will flip over to them. Interested to see whats in there at the moment.

Haha you may well be right! Blindly ordered during the newborn night feeds ? and yes they are the super 4. Just want to give it a quick going over.

Some service parts ready to go on: Elf oil 5w 40 Oil filter Spark plugs Pollen filter Sump plug washer No air filter as running its panel filter, and ordered a fuel filter but they look to be an item not normally replaced so will leave that well alone lol. Also ordered 1 cup badge for the...

I’ll find out on my MoT next week as the sports cat on mine looks a good few years old. Don’t know how long though. The milltek cat I had on my fiesta st was 5 years old and sailed through MOT last year no problem. So guess it last how the car is used aswell.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about mick at diamond motors. Plenty of reviews on here.

I did my first track day at the Cliosport owners club day in a fiesta ? a few years ago. I fully expected people to be out trying to prove a point but it was actually really relaxed. So expect this to be no different judging by the comments above. Awareness of others is the biggest thing I’ve found.

What do you do with regards to a spare Dave? Or just have the foam if not on runflats?

I keep hearing this. Is it expensive?

@JamieG

Good choice ?And excellent spec aswell. How you finding the auto box? First time with an auto on my e91 but it’s pretty effortless to drive and like you say masks the speed. I’m finding I could do with a little more space with 2 kids but everything does fit for now?

Cheers guys. Really want a Sabelt or sparco wheel or just an omp pending what’s about so just wanted to gauge what I’m looking at for this first before I bother as it’s in great nick.

Any idea what I could expect from a retrimmed 172 cup wheel in alcantara material with the thumb inserts done. Looking for something a little smaller.

I didn’t know they don’t give you the print out anymore. Good to know. It’s a shame as it’s useful to see.

I generally just know from the emissions on the mot if on it’s way out. I stopped running decat a number of years ago as I personally can’t be doing with the hassle if I was ever pulled over (touch wood that hasn’t happened).

That’s ideal then. Mines ktec stealth and not sure on the car until I can get it up in the air. I don’t know if it’s the lack of sound deadening making it louder than I’m used to ?‍♂️

I don’t know how old the cat is so just hoping the baffles haven’t perished which is why I’m getting the humming noise under acceleration. My mate will be sure to “warm” it up before hand though ?

I’ll keep my eyes peeled if some come up. Cheers. Once I know what’s up with the noise coming from the exhaust I’ll take it from there. Hoping it’s something simple. I know sports cats get less efficient on MOTs as they get older so hopefully it passes! Lol.

He sure is. But he is a fountain of knowledge and glad I bought one now. I bet we would be able to hold a 3 series meet just off here ? Really like the D3. And also the Porsche in the background ? I was surprised at how many of the bm’s had very little spec. I agree on these with the...
