ah yes, I've got the bits to make a few actually. Gave the first one to the new tech at K-tec when I went down last week

I honestly disagree with the vast majority of the advice and methods used in that "guide"

genuine kit it about 40% of the price of buying motor factor parts. £72 for the whole lot, or usually £145 for the tensioner on it's own if you get it in a gates box. Don't skimp, just do the lot, you're wasting your time doing anything else

don't for christ sake buy the AT power kit. Horrible

it's patchy, but I'm on it right now

PM me what you'd want for it.

Depends what's wrong with it. I'd be tempted as a rebuild donor for the right price

No recon available for 172 cup, brand new genuine only. About 258 quid now

sharft don't need to come out of the hub, undo the balljoints form the lower arm, and remove the center bearing carrier from the back of the block and you can swing the hubs away enough for the shafts to come out of the box and clear enough to not get in the way

Nothing I can't do there if you can't get it done closer to home

what welding needs doing exactly?

the wiring bit is the only hard bit due to lack of space. Definitely worth getting the updated parts though

I REALLY like them in silver

yes, I'm fully decided, I HATE metro/tiles. It looks like a childs toy

I live you spoil your day xx

engines get hot. Just fit it and it will cure

not a helicoil no, a timesert or bigsert depending on how much thread material has been damaged. can be done safely in situ

new engine for a stripped thread!!! PMSL over reaction much? EASY to fix

Did one last week. Nothing hugely special, leave the AC connected and unbolt the pump from the block, then swing it clear, disconnect the loom from the engine and leave it connected at the car end, remove the whole front end and front half of the subframe. the rest is just normal procedure

read closer!!!! they wil be rated at 50psi MAXIMUM. you want to set them to 30-32psi when cold also, if you're only getting 20-25mpg, something is broken

decent deal.

I'm utterly underwhelmed by any new phones at the moment. Not due an upgrade for a few months yet though. Pretty unexcited by 10 inch~ tablets carrying pricetags well over laptop money without the functionality to be a full replacement too. Probably going to end up with a Dell Latitude 10 with...

still a good device, hope it was cheap (£160ish now)

keep driving

not convinced by the phone yet. LG.....hmm, have to gave a look at one. 10 inch Tablet sounds impressive.

If you want to flush the engine, get some 10w40 semi synth, run it for 50-100 miles, then change it when the engine is fully warmed. Don't use chemical flushes, at best they will loosen carbon deposits that were happily doing no damage.

you did almost all of your car yourself Dave

Looks a good device, but way too locked down. Android without freedom is a bit WTF

wheel size changes the gearing though. You get better acceleration and worse economy with 15s compared to larger wheels
