Shhh you. I didn't actually f**k anything, it was already fucked and seems pointless putting something broken back on.
Toyosport, eBay circa £50 I think. Yours being a 100 should mean the boost pipes required to link up to the existing pipework should be cheaper, I spent a fair whack on that...
Be easy enough to do when fitting brakes.
Good, I told you it'd feel much better. Gives you that bit more confidence. You don't know fighting until you try to drive Robs car fast!
Hopefully have a reliable car again by then. Driveshaft & engine mount changed by then.
Head gasket will be fine! It's only 1.5 bar over factory!
Obvioisly have missed how s**t my car is lately.
Yes please, no rush now, worry about it next time I see you.
I'll probably die!
Can't listen ATM, but what your describing sounds exactly like a wheel bearing. Do you think it comes from a particular corner of the car? If so, jack up the car and spin the wheel, also check for movement up/down and left/right on the wheel. If you have play in both directions, it'll be wheel...
I trust mine!
FYI, anybody reading this, I'm drunk, so I'm sorry if I make no sense..
Anyway, Yesterday I ordered new front Discs & pads from g172, Top service as always!.
Old ones weren't that bad as you can see...
Minor lip on discs, pads mostly worn, but I'm not the kinda person that...
Look at you lot, preparing weeks in advance.
I'm going to throw stuff in my car Saturday morning, go via tesco, rock up, get my chair out and become dead to the world. Before getting in my car, in a sleeping bag and having the best nights sleep.
I'll bring my pop up gazebo too though.
Thats a resister, it just needs airflow so it cools down, its so the fan can run at half speed with aircon on. I will just cable tie it in place somewhere so its not touching anything but can get airflow.
Slimline fan will probably run faster than the old fan, but no biggy.
Only things you've got to remove is the internal kick panel/sill panel, PAS fluid bottle (which has a nice clip and slides up), and the grill.
Its not a bad job to do at all !
Cheers dudes!
Yeah I know, Aircon has no gas ATM, so thats no issue, and I've never ever had the high speed fan kick in, temp has never got above half way. I'm sorting out a slimline fan soon.
Odd!
I was going to suggest the windscreen, until you said you had it replaced! Only thing I can think of is to get the headlining down, and have a ganders, poss get somebody to hose it over while you sit inside, hopefully able to find the leak.
Keep this thread up to date as it sounds like a...
Bonnet pin switch.
If you're missing the switch, don't worry about it. If you have the switch, plug it back in. Its missing or unplugged on so many of them!
Also, has anybody locally got one of these? Its the seat bolt blank from underneath, I only need one?
Or if somebody wants to post me one for very little? :P
Update following the last few days....
First up, bought all the pipework to finish plumbing up my intercooler at last.
So fucked off the old 80 intercooler, and the factory rad fan, as its massive and I've always hated it.
I then failed to get any pictures, but its all nice silicone now...
