Check the ball joint diameter. There are two sizes, so it might have the wrong one fitted. If not, a second hand hub from a breaker is only £25 anyway!

You ran out of screenwash?

Yep, easily.

Yep, jubilee on the tensioner. Alternator out of it's top fixing. Once the belt is on, use a lever bar to lift the alternator, slide that bolt in, then take off the jubilee. Simple.

I'd rather buy part worn Premiums than brand new mid range TBH. PS3's with 5-6mm on ebay are £200 or so..

I think the price is pretty reasonable!

Yeah, from a breaker would be fine (and MUCH cheaper i bet)

Fiddly, but not terrible. ARB - f**k that. Hideous c***s.

Yep, I'm in. I wonder how easily a 225 setup would drop in space wise..

Top man. Likewise- I don't want to be dropping £300 on discs as mine are perfectly good...

@Jack! Pic of which one you're struggling with?

If any of the above annoys you, then you shouldn'y have bought a 182. lol. That's what we French car owners call 'character'

Do the pads overhang the disc at all? I have a set of 4 pots i'm tempted to whack on my M3, but would rather not go for CSL discs if i can help it..

This TBH. You don't need to move it. Is basically impossible to refit the heatshield with the manifold where it is though IME.

Nothing needed to be done on the exhaust for the manifold. Just undo the nuts and it'll slide backwards. Watch the gasket, it's like a f**king razor blade. Chopped my hands on it before a few times. Basic guide here (it's been a few months since i've swapped one). Airbox out. Battery out too...

I always take them out of the bottom.

Just make the buyer pay your listing fee. Put it into your asking price.

I love how easy you make it all sound.

No. For anything like this to actually work, it needs to be mounted to something structural. A hinged, flexible part is going to absorb the minimal effects it actually makes. Unless the bootlid is secretly welded shut?

LOL at that working All that will be doing is compressing the boot seal a tiny bit more than usual.

It's basically a 2016 GTi-6. On that basis, i love it (although some of the styling is pretty questionable).

Oil pump chain being slack is completely normal.

Pack of 5 here for £1.88: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Metric-Nitrile-O-Rings-1-5mm-C-S-1mm-ID-to-10-5mm-ID-/231993330719?var=&hash=item3603e14c1f:m:m_HXgBMghfpjr16esvvZGKA Nice work!

Shoes like these. The quickest way to advertise your virginity to the world.

Not on the same vehicle, but i've had RSR's on a Clio, and would use again. not sure if they've fixed the tread split issue that scares everyone or not.. Supersports on the M3 are epic though. Wet grip is the difference IMO.

Immobiliser light should go out after a few seconds.

I remember it being something like being inside the car, lock the car, then unlock it. Put key in ignition on number 2 for 30 seconds. Remove key. Lock car, unlock car.

If the immobiliser light isn't going out, there's your problem. Got a spare key? Try that. Earths - there's another one over the back of the box that is easily missed.
