Depends on how you drive the car, how often and on what roads. The bearings arent designed for that sort of load so die quickly over bumps. I'd say yearly and check condition every 3 months or so

I'm fully v-banded so it should be tight.

But imagine the time you'd save if you launched it without your belt on

Keep the revs at 6k to warm it up faster

Its done the popping before we broke that! I'll get a multimeter on them

Surely this wouldn't only happen when cold?

My clio has always 'popped and banged' for about 2 minutes when first driven from cold. Also feels like its 'holding back' slightly which is a little weird although this is usually fine as i only drive into a 30mph from work/home so its warmed up by the time i'm on any proper roads where it...

Spend an extra 5 minutes warming your engine up before driving if concerned imho

In all seriousness i've never had any problems with the standard genuine elf oil, and my car has done 141k miles. It's more important to make sure it filled up, as these like to use/leak a little oil.

Csoc? Pfft.

studlock for studs :unsure:

I got my pair from a breaker for about £6 posted I think

On a Friday afternoon transits are one of the fastest vehicles on the road though

With studlock FT will be fine.

Sounds like immobiliser. I've had this with a loose negative battery terminal before.

I like the Adam's wash pad, use a dog brush to keep them plush

Doesnt suck anything does it? It's literally just blowing out oil I think

Could I get this too?

Mines been on years with absolutely no issues! I scrape it all the time too!

Thought I'd seen one on Ebay the other day but just checked and its damaged!

Theres some matte ones available. Quick sand with wet and dry and then some lacquer and they're identical to the gloss ones.

Crazy how tyre pressure makes such a huge difference! Good to know they feel good. Please keep updating when you start pressing on as I'll probably be looking at getting a set next year!

Looks fantastic! Definitely makes a huge difference with a clean set of plates and stickers removed.

Steal their football, burst it, post it through the letterbox with a 'you're next' cut out from a newspaper. Theyll pay up

Did you change into 2nd from 5th at 140mph?
