will be doing this over the next few days, and i was just wondering if there was anything id need to look out for in particular. any common mistakes that are made or is it relatively simple? with regards to my headlight washer, ive ordered the complete unit (its just the ball thats missing...

Not over a standard 172 no, in fact just no altogether. Sorry

FWD driving tuition and better brakes/suspension Won't help straight line speed but that's what Id do. Or as someone said sell yours and buy one wloading work done for a similar price

This 'noise' doesn't happen all the time or on full lock, more on a medium (excuse the description) turn?

Ive already done a search by the way. as im pulling off at very low speeds and turning i can hear a knock/click that increases/decreases with speed. mainly just after starting my journey, the rest of the journey it very rarely happens. recently had a new ball joint and suspension spring...

As above

ive just got my belts done at birchdown and its making a squealing noise on full lock too, surely cant be the aux belt?

Sarcasm?

I do a similar route and mines aroubd 36 including a 40 minute motorway round trip once a week

Superb!!

I'm on the Wirral and went to birchdown, about 45-50 mins away

id get a toshiba, however my knowledge is limited

setting fire to cars, geez :) awaits the story . . . . . . . . . . . .

Nope, he'll just fill you with more sh*t face to face, if your that easily swayed over the phone you'd be a salesmans dream face to face

Mines not doing it it's just for future reference

so if your air con hisses when you press the a/c button then it needs re-gassing, even if its still blowing cold?

Re: Cambelt issue.. new thread id let him 'check' (so you stay mates, i guess alls he has tried doing is a favour) but i WOULD NOT let him attempt any resolutions or touch it

Re: Cambelt issue.. new thread i know f all about engines which is why i take it to someone who does

ha no, im no mechanic but im not that daft!

push the seats all the way back until they 'click' then you can reset them at a certain distance i think

not from the engine mate, from the rest of the car (was just a guess am i miles out?)

Bloody hell, didn't expect that response. Goodj - everything in context, you've never heard people complain about offers for new customers only being annoying? Craigus - hardly being a bell, just my opinion on the matter, not even a strong, thought out opinion just an off the cuff remark. Mace...

almost everything i think, parts alone should get you at least a grand at a guess

nothing to get over, if i pay for something why should someone else get it for free, thats my only point, its not like ive got a bloody campaign against it

they will look good, i like em, sod putting them on yourself though id imagine that to be a nightmare!

i wouldnt trust 'national tyres' to do anything properly, never mind everything

This annoys me as i pay for it, why should people who dont get it for free. p.s. i understand why (to generate new business etc etc) but its still annoying

i bought a 172 and wasnt sure wether or not the belts had been done. got a few prices and in the end went to birchdown (sorry mick fred etc) they were not any more expensive than other garages, pretty well priced, but by going there i had a warranty on the work and a lot more piece of mind. hell...
