longer locking wheel nuts will be needed too i guess?
jamie do you mean to let the 172 wheels clear or to bring them out in the arches? you dont have 172 arches do you?
ive gotta go to halfords (or if anyone else knows anywhere cheaper) to buy some disks and pads first thing in the morning, then find a garage to fit them for cheap... because alot of garages round here arent able to get the parts, or other reasons..... so just need to check a few things if...
well, we went to about 15 garages lol... no one wanted to do it... when we found one that would, he couldnt only do it later on and i had to go to work so we had to take the car back.... immi may have gone back to get it done i think
taking it to quick fit at 10am today lol
never been any chance the clamp to the cat is coming off, itl need cutting off. same with the back, its solid as a rock
its not a full decat, its just a straight through center section, meaning no center silencer.... cat is staying where it is...
nahh i remembered now ;) noice! :)
it wasnt high enough, and tbh me and him didnt feel safe under it with just the jack... we got the ramps and got under fine, just everythings rusted up!
we got a 2ton beast of a jack, but still, it just didnt feel right going right under the car to mess with it... even resorted to using my...
lol no we spent hours and hours trying to get the things to jack it up, ended up with 'munchkins' ramps and we couldnt get the clamps off! nightmare...
so the straight through center section waits another day :(
this happened to me... i got run off the road by a car on the wrong side of the road... had to bump up the kerb and put a massive slit in the sidewall because the part of the wheel the tyre hit was kerbed...
...spoke to around 5 garages/tyre places.... all said replace it as its the only thing...
tbh, im never taking my car to a garage like that again...
i should have just stayed with the pads you did just after the 18k service, but they did these about 1k later and its chewed the disks upto f**k...
any ideas for a low dust pad?
not the pads you did edde, they were fine once they bedded in after the initial squeeking :) ,
i had greenstuff pads put in at kwikfit (FFS!) about a month later to try and reduce dust...
i see, alot round here wanted 100+ labour which works out more than renault!! absolute jokers.... they wanted like 3-4 hrs labour to swap the disks and pads and to bleed it all :mad:
yeh 54 plate / jan 05 registered
its on 25k
the pads got replaced at 19k and i think they wernt put in properly and have chewed up the disks to f**k, proper bad lip and i dont feel safe driving it lol!
my disks are absolutely shafted, need some new pads too.
been putting it off and its been dragging on, and i dont feel safe driving it anymore, need some disks and pads fitted asap!
i phoned 6/7 motor factors on friday enquiring about disks, they all said they would call back and never did...
