nice try mate, what with you being donsrno1 friend i think ill ignore your advice!

if you were the owner would you have a problem with a "stranger" doing a compression test on your car?

ah ok im with you now ;)

explain :S

so do v6 mondeos have timing chains?

oh and wash off the area you have worked on when your finished

:eek: how very dare you!

bump

yeh ridgeway is just up the road from me, 2mins drive :)

who fitted the lines mate? it probably needs bleeding

use a little bit of paint stripper and a tiny paint brush but be careful where u put it!

but mate not many ppl get a copy of the history when they buy a new engine so really when buying any hybrid you are taking a risk! also what do you mean reciepts? as in by the garage that fitted then engine? edit: here is the car in question, and i have just realised it is actually a...

do you mean just put all the history together? yeh that would be fine but generally when people buy a new engine they dont get any history with it!

yeh thats a good idea i bought a tester a few months ago and havnt even used it yet! personally if you were selling a car would you want some1 doing a test on your car? i mean i know i am perfectly capable of doing it without f**king up the car but the seller doesnt know that

cheers :cool:

not to sure mate but i know garages dont so i dont lol, i suppose they could loosen if greased

sorry mate i wasnt getting shirty i just came across wrong:o and i meant whats the point in the seller showing me service history for the car wen the engines only been in there for 3k miles! its a bit of a gamble isnt it

read the above post! whats the point in telling me that the car was serviced ever year when that is for an engine thats not in the car anymore!

dont tell the insurance about the 2.0 litre? :quiet:

thats the problem though, as its a hybrid there is no service history! no point showing me service history for the old engine! so basically you are buying an 80k car with no history!

yeh i know! lol but i just dotn want to buy a shitter!

pmsl!

i have seen a hybrid for sale with 81000 miles on the clock (apparently!) but i am always worried about this high milage, mayb i am being silly but anything above 60k and i start 2 think it will be breaking down all the time! can any1 put my mind at ease or tell me whether i am right to be wary...

no dont grease the nuts just put them on as normal

y's that? have they got a reputation for s**t work?

Re: Is it just me or have most valvers been totally mollested and run into the yes but the last 1's are only on 11 years so, thats why i am after a m/n reg only anything b4 that is to old and just starts 2 look s**t tbh.

i cant find a nice valver anywhere! they are very few for sale and the 1's that are for sale or so s**t! very high milage, totally mollested just generally crap! im after a mint valver/hybrid and i think im going to be waiting a very long time and i really want to have it b4 summer kicks in...
