    More Paint Help

    A quick wet sand with 800 grit wet and dry for the new paint to key to should be fine . Then a few coats of colour and 3 coats of lacquer . You could primer it , but as long as you only lightly wet sand you shouldn't need to .

    Cold Air Feeds?

    ^^^ The actual back of the enclosure is almost closed as thats where the back of the cone filter is and the diameter isn't much less than the actual diameter of the enclosure. So it's getting most of the air from the 2 air feeds .

    Brake fluid bleeding / hose changing advice please

    Personally i change the brake fluid every 12 months .I usually use castrol response , but any dot 4 will do . Like you say . Once you've changed the hoses you will need to bleed the system to get out the air . Do it with the engine off and never drain the whole system . It takes 1 litre ...

    Hope you get it sorted mate . One dealers i went to when i had my 172 and the cd player was clicking said it was normal , he said " yeah mine does that as well , lol " I just walked away laughing , thinking wtf :eek:

    182 cd player stopped working!?

    Your best bet is go to your local dealership and have a word . Then you'll know where you stand . Some dealers are more helpful than others .

    182 cd player stopped working!?

    They won't give you a new one , they send it away to be repaired . If it's found to be faulty then they might replace it , if they can't find a fault they'll charge you . I'm pretty sure the warranty only covers your cd player for 12 months .

    Stale smoke smell...what's best?

    Autoglym interior shampoo . Air fresheners will only mask the smell slightly , the shampoo will remove all the crap and smoke smell . I bought a Pug 306 years ago , the headlining was slightly grubby , so i washed it with the AG interior shampoo , i was amazed just how dirty it really was ...

    How good is the Gilmour

    I don't really find it much hassle connecting up the karcher . Granted it takes a while longer than just using a hose , but when you think that alot of people spend 4 or 5 hours or more washing , polishing , waxing etc ..... its not that much extra time added to your day really . Have a look...

    I use chemical guys Extreme Body Wash N Wax most of the time , but tbh any shampoo i've tried using my karcher method produces lots of foam . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/extrwash.htm

    Thanks for the tip .I think the clue is in the name " foglight " ;)

    How good is the Gilmour

    My efforts with a Karcher , a length of hose running into a 25 litre home brew fermenting bin with a couple of capfuls of shampoo . Use a vario lance ( around a tenner off ebay ) and you can have low pressure or high pressure foam :)
