Odd one. I'll have to com over and have a look when I can get over. cleaned the cluster connections to the rear ?

Lol maybe. Yeah , block getting sent off Monday for a deep clean. And oil squirter removal

They all leak out of the selector shaft at te bottom. Just a crap design. thats a breather tube yes , mines got the cap on, so'a many others I've seen

No no no, the UCH has a tab on the back of it, which the holder for those relays hang off. Carl doesnt bother with front fogs. Only rears so they must of been working lol

going to rebuild the head after a valve made a break for it. ( well bent valves *) ive got another head which has been skimmed way to much, but has straight and true valves in, so i am going to lap those valves into my current head. ive checked the clearances before with feeler gauges. BUT...

i dont know everything dan, ive just had my shitheap in pieces more times than its been on the road :o

passenger side under dash. three black big relays on the UCH at the back. one of them does headlight, then the other 2 ect.

Yupp, my house has them in every room give or take. If we have both xbox ones on, no one gets signal on the computers. boosters plugged into socket, Ethernet cables from them to the PCs /Xboxs

Finance still outstanding I bet!

That ain't going to be cheap to fix! What's it down, bopped over a curb at Mach 10?

Neither have I , usually it's timing belts failing/ fuel systems f**king up or bottom end bearings making a break for it. Saying that, this was a second hand engine that me and the old retired guy at work rebuilt the bottom end on. The head just got cleaned and put back on. So dam lucky the...

yes it's dropped an exhaust valve on cylinder 2 lol havent even touched the engine , just went to pop the shops and all hell broke loose :(

Dropped a valve :( RAC putting it on truck tommrorow and getting me back home.

Thought so, just checking before it dies on me for the god knows how many times DaveDreads Properly dropped me in the s**t this has, more work coming in work that this is now getting in the way of

Might have to have one at mine to gett the DCI back on the road ASAP again fPMLS.

Cut a long story short, rebuilt this engine 50k odd ago ( bottom end only ) Its desided to drop a valve and took a peice out of the piston ( cylinder 2 ) ( don't ask me how, never heard a k9k do that) Lucky enough no other damage, injectors are fine and thankfully missed the aftermath , just...

yupp, it blocked my oil pick up and finished it off proper. and that's on a dirty diesel. god knows what it'll do on a petrol.

yupp, it will finish it off at that millage. ive learnt my less :(

Your best bet is going to some paint store near you and getting them to mix you a little bottle of colour. Your doing it the right way by doing it , bit by bit. Ive lost worse scratches like this so it's doable!

Is 2000 grit /2500 grit wet and dry good enough to take the edge off fresh paint? Had my dci's side painted out last week after I smashed it up, the paints not orange peel as such but the rest of the car looks like glass where as that whole side doesn't. So my plan was to go over with 2000...

Fill with base coat. Let dry. Then lacquer over the top. Then flat back down that's how I've seen it on DW. Paints te gone off by the sound of what you have said. Get a needle and build It up in layers. If it still does it, get another fresh kit from a proper paint shop.

Rattle can patch up dan, rattle cans ! seen some like these on the bay, only way to go is fine shot blasting

You would have to be driving like a proper t**t to even use the full potential of them on the road (daily ) track yes as a added safety factor on endurance. Rubber hoses will be fine
