The bottles are in U.S. quarts so only 946ml, you technically need 3.1L to fill the box but I only manage to get about 2.8L in. So you may want 3-4 bottles and any spares can be used next time. I change mine every year.

The MTL which is 75w-80. Do the odd trackday too and it's been fine for nearly 4 years now.

Nor am I tbh. Just seems odd that it was fine when you last parked it up and now it's doing this after being sat for a while. Have you got any jump leads where you could run one from the negative terminal on the battery to the engine, on something like the lifting hook. That should rule out...

The paving slabs 😂

This any use?

I would imagine so, as the thermostat is never fully closed. There is always some oil flowing through.

I run the same in mine.

Pretty hard to get the fan running really. Similar to @Brigsy i've hardly ever had the fan kick in, even on hot track days. It does work too as I ran the actuator test as said.

Best thing about the Rupes machines is the balance. My old DAS6 Pro used to give you serious vibration white knuckle 😂

Rupes if you can budget for one.

Definitely the rocker cover then.

It'll self bleed eventually.

I wouldn't be using anything on a car after a week's worth of driving without washing it.

I start at 10:1 with G101 most of the time. Not dangerous but just don't let it dry on.

Yeah mate. G101 for me, but any APC should work.

6 track days in the space of 2 months and you're worried about £50 a corner more 😅 Year's worth of track days for me that 😂

Anything haha I have a lot of bulk stuff which I dilute down. Maybe something you'd spray a lot of, as it's handy having the double action spray to cover a large area quickly.

These spray bottles are quality! Double action spray so it sprays when you pull the trigger and then again when you release. Has a weighted pickup pipe too so will still spray when running low and spraying on an angle. https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/kwazar-mercury-pro-360-trigger-sprayers

It doesn't go into 50/50 brake bias when a fault appears... That wouldn't be a very safe system. It retains standard bias but you just lose the abs. I've done track days with the fault lights on and it's fine.

Can have my Gyeon Tyre for cost of postage if you wanted to try it?

CarPro Reset shampoo. Carbon Collective Sateen for dressing, dries quick so no sling. Tried Gyeon Tyre, takes too long to dry for me so you still get sling. They recommend heating it with a hairdryer or heatgun but that's too much messing around.

Yeah pretty much.

Yeah the abs sensor wires.

Chemical Guys Stripper Scent or Signature Scent as it's now called.... Oh how I've missed the smell 🥰 Not had a bottle for a year or so. The last one I replaced with their bubble gum one which is alright but gets a bit sickly if you're not too careful with how much you spray.

The alignment shouldn't cause any fault lights. Could be big coincidence or they've caught a sensor wire. Give the sensor wiring a quick look and also the abs rings while you're there.

100ml in your 1L sprayer will be fine.

That's the one. 500ml in my 5L pump sprayer and I use about 1L per car. So I get about 50 washes from a 5L bottle. 54p a wash if you worked it out.

I use Autosmart Prestige mixed at 1:10 It removes pretty much all traffic grime for me. Tried Autobrite's citrus pre wash and it just wasn't as good.

The torque wrenches are good for electrical HV work, but they're not really designed for the automotive industry. Was talking to @Yorkshire Pudding about them recently. For that money too I'd want angle torque tightening.

One thing worth noting is it's not 'up to temp' as soon as the needle hits the middle. It's more of an indicator to say it's within range. It'll stay in the middle from like 50°c up until it overheats.
