Cheers David . Money sent :)

Pm sent David for the extreme body wash n wax .

Never needed to top mine up . Go for fully synthetic 5w-40 , i use Silkolene Pro S 5w-40 , seems a popular choice for 172 / 182's . http://www.opieoils.co.uk/performance_lubricants/silkolene.aspx Bought it from a member on here called Oilman ( Guy ) .

I'm on my second one mate . Had a 172 got a 182 now . Good cars for the money , go for the full fat imo , all the toys etc........ get a test drive in one if you can .

I have one , there's a few more people on here who have them and rate them also :)

Cheers Alex . Money sent :)

I think i'd check out a bit more about this guy bitsrus first tbh mate . Heard a couple of bad things about his splitters being too small !!

Thats cheap . Don't know about the quality of them though . You'll also need either new bearings or the old ones pressing out and pressing into the new discs . There's no abs ring on them as well , but if you've got a cup that won't matter .

No probs . Nice of you to take the time and effort for the guide though :)

Just seems a bit of p*ss ballin about tbh , the res doesn't hold much anyway . Just bleed it through , thats all i ever do .

Powerflow aren't expensive . Don't know where you get that idea from tommyboy . It was only £270 for a full stainless catback for my old 172 . It was £120 for the backbox . Check on here for your nearest powerflow outlet : http://www.powerflowexhausts.net/dealerlocator.cfm

^^^^ Thats a new one on me mate . Why would you want to suck the old fluid out of the reservoir ?? Just crack the nipple , pump the pedal and top up the reservoir as you bleed the old fluid out . If you gonna use 2 litres you'll have new fluid to all the calipers as the 172 / 182 system only...

I'll have 1 if there's a group buy .

Not sure the beam deflectors will work if you have xenons tbh . I think they were designed for normal lights . Your also supposed to take things like a first aid kit , high vis vest , red warning triangle , spare bulbs etc ..... just if you should get pulled by the police and they want to be...

It won't blow up if it has less power .I would imagine it'll run just as good as a higher rated transformer .

Too much Christmas cake ;)

I wouldn't imagine the pc being that power hungry .I can't say 100% for sure but thats my guess anyway . Plug it and try it , best way to find out .

The va bit is the voltage / amp rating . Its to do with what appliance your running off the transformer , bigger transformers usually have a larger kva rating and more often than not 2 output plugs for running more than one thing at once .

I have to disagree with part of your statement Ad . Selling private is the best way . A general rule of thumb is never part ex if you don't have to . You'll get rock bottom price for the motor your part exchanging as the dealer wants to make money on the vehicle he's selling and then the...

^^^ Sorry mate . Thinking about it i should have put a post up informing people . Chances are they'll get em back in stock again sometime .

Pixmania were fine for me . Saved just over £100 on a camcorder compared to anywhere in the UK , plus it was the latest model which wasn't released over here for another 6 months . English manuals , 2 year warranty . I'd use them again anway .

You've got to ask yourself why its so low mileage . I know alot of people have them for weekend toys , but it also could have been off the road for a long time being repaired .

Can't fault the Talex . They're in Aldi tomorrow morning only £59.99 ;) , get there as the doors open at 9am as they usually go within minutes .

Yep, keep your eye on the reservoir , keep topping it up .

Try pumping the brakes to push to pistons back out .

Like Rich says . They probably all contain salt so it softens the water and helps foam up better .

Freds mates in Birmingham : http://www.lap-tab.co.uk/alloywheels.php

Just the magnetic one supplied .

I'd leave the wheels a week at least . Then maybe try some wheel guard from http://www.carwashnwax.com/ Its good stuff :)

I have a talex lite , in fact a few people on here do , it needs to positioned in the middle of the dash where the little square is on the windscreen . http://www.talex.co.uk/talexlite/ The microfuzion looks ok , free updates for life sounds good :)
