These wee bolts usually shear quite easy. I'd be smacking that disc with a hammer behind it. Reckon the bolt will shear then.

It's one of the reasons I got rid of mine! Just stupid money for some shocks! I'm sure they do a great job though!

I won't be touching it mate! Seems there's not many 172 cups out there at all. Well standard anyway!

Yea..wouldn't be much of a community then! I know you're only joking however he has some info on the seller that makes me believe him

And that ladies and gentlemen, is why I love this forum! Nice one mate, saves me making a phonecall

Should add, it's what I'm now after. A nice standard 172 cup below 80k!

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/141783132925 The guy seems like a bit of a part time salesman. Anyone been to see it? Seems well priced to me from the description and photos. Found the guy via Facebook using his number. Not sure what I think!

Yeah. To be honest when you get to this level there's not much in them. It is the small things that make them better though..

Pretty sure it does. He just got a cheapo 64gb card for it..sure it was standard size. It's got a really nice weight too it too

Kev, my dad just got one of these. http://www.tesco.com/direct/sony-dsc-hx50-digital-camera-black-204mp-30x-optical-zoom-3-lcd-screen/714-5782.prd?pageLevel=&skuId=714-5782 Cracking little camera for the money. Has a brilliant zoom on it and the lcd screen is nice and wide for viewing

Have you taken off the upper inlet recently? If you've not set it right the idle will be high

Cheers mate. I'm assuming this is genuine parts too?

Can these be had cheaper anywhere else? I'm aware the water pump is on back order at some places £300 all in for the dephaser, timing and auxiliary belts along with a water pump and everything else needed...

@Craigarch1994 this one mate.

Is it the metal pipe touching the bracket area? Stick in a piece of sponge or similar to stop the metal on metal

Then: (arty farty pic) Now: I think I've went wrong somewhere..can't quite put my finger on it

You sure it's oil and not petrol?

I'd get a petrol/diesel courtesy car and pile on the miles onto it!

Anyone got a trailer and could help me out moving my 172 from Glasgow to Stirling ish. Obviously I would pay for the help!

Lol. A 5 series should look great from every angle. E12, E28, E34, E39 all perfect in my eyes to look at. It goes down hill at the e60 then starts to get better with the F10. I've never got on with the e60. Not saying it's a crap car just think it looks wrong, especially from behind unless it's...

Wrong wrong wrong! The e60 is definitely the runt of the litter when it comes to 5 series. It's still a decent car but no way the best shape 5 series and they have lots of issues

I'll maybe pop up for a look:) if anyone wants to take me out id be more than happy!

That seems reasonable to me. Bet they surprise pretty much most things out there too

Man I really want a go in a 172/182 turbo. Reckon it would be hilarious. What sort of price we talking for a basic turbo build and are they reliable?

Man that looks so good. Love me some rectangular headlights!

I love both the gold and red!! Silver on black looks good yes but everyone does it. Including me. Keep them red, really different and works.

Yeah what Danny said. Quite common really. Not a massive issue and dead easy to replace yourself

How many hours labour is that?

Matte purple looks awful. Please don't do it. There's a guy round my way with a matte purple Astra and it is honestly awful looking. Alien green ftw
