    Hpi Check Alert

    where do they get the mileage figures from, the only time i know mileage is passed is during servicing and mot's. its optional on the v5 when selling a car but that wouldnt tally with above. very strange.

    removing sticker residue

    if your havnt any of that bug and tar remover AG glass polish does the trick or if you have a bottle of brake fluid that also works really well, however be very careful to only get it on the glass dont let it go on any other surface. makes mince meat out of sticker residue though.

    how to quiet down an exhaust

    a local exhaust specialist will insert sound deadening material into the middle silencer think adding extra baffles into the back box wouldnt be cost effective, hunt down a local specialist and see what they say.

    De-Cat??

    i had a de cat on my last car a 106gti with custom exhaust it was a bit too loud really as the system had no middle box and on a rolling road i has a few bhp down over my last figures duen to lack of back pressure. not sure how much diff it would make to a 1.2 but you may find your emissions...

    COURT SUMMONS

    how long have you had the 9 points mate, any over 3 years old dont count in the totting up procedure, however 108mph is in theory an instant ban anyway, if some of those are over 3 years old you are going into court with less points history than you think. best bet is to seek legal advice...

    Insure 18 year female on 2004 172?! Help

    i put my g/f on my insurance when she passed her test, she was 22/23 years old at the time and it didnt cost me anything. i think the fact she is a provisional holder will make matters harder.

    182 exhaust mods??

    a de cat would change the note slightly but there is a good chance your emissions warning light on your dash will light up which im sure could prove annoying over time, i have just ordered a btb exhaust system with the cat still in place i think it sounds nice not too loud and the tail pipes...

    what do you recommend to make the 182 sound nicer?

    i removed my acoutic valve and sound deadening from the bonnet along with a panel filter you can hear slightly more induction noise at 5k now but not much louder to be honest, as people say induction kits (sealed) give most noise, and i have just ordered a btb exhaust system.

    Rev Limiter

    i thought (no expert) they have a 2 stage limiter, first limiter is set a little lower once you have hit the first limiter the second higher limiter is then used. it makes sense really having the first lower limiter there just incase and for safety then once the ecu knows your in a rush the...

    SANDWICH PLATE ? ? FITTING OIL TEMP AND OIL PRESS SENDERS

    what you had on the golf was an water-oil cooler which uses water feed from your radiator to cool your oil, i have fitted air-oil coolers by using a sandwich plate which sits between your engine and filter, really easy to do. as far as fitting an oil temp sensor and oil pressure i think you...
