Have you asked to see the symptoms yourself since?

So they pinched the HT lead when refitting the inlet? Still technically their fault then :p I jest, glad its sorted mate :)

What, 1WD?

Advertise them in the for sale section?

Same difference :p It has defo improved though. No more annoying lag when closing an app and trying to open the app tray straight away. Hopefully its sorted the crashing apps also

Since posting that its actually settled down and seems ok. However, this site is still quite slow but it always has been since the new site

Anyone just had the 5.1 update? Suppose to fix performance issues and bugs. Its now even slower on my N5! I'm typing this and I'm a word ahead before it appears on the screen.

I know you say you've had the battery checked, but they can read fine, but fail when under load. Try a new battery mate

Yeah you couldn't really be any further away from anywhere lol If it was me though, I'd still take a trip to Nottingham and see Mick.

Where in Lincolnshire are you?

Yeah plenty of oil recommendation threads knocking about. Have a look through the Opie Oils trader section

Was I right in what I said? @MicKPM I've been trying to read up on the timing procedure for engines with floating pulleys as I was gonna do our focus myself

Yeah quite cheap that

They are floating pulleys on the camshafts and crank. These have to be loosened off in order to remove the belt if I remember correctly. Upon tensioning the belt, it has to be done with the the pulleys still lose. If its not spun round a few times, then the tension isn't even over the whole belt...

Yes but then the belt has to be spun round a few times with all the pulleys lose to set the tension, and then tighten all the pulleys. I think its that part most people forget to do

If your due a cambelt change then cams make sense. It would be the RS2 for me though. Buy it for a grand, enjoy 190ish bhp and a flat torque curve for a couple of years. Remove and sell on for the same money you bought it for.

Who told you that? There's plenty of owners of them that would disagree. @Daniel originally removed that inlet from a 200bhp car. Think it had 197 cams too maybe

Buy the rs2 inlet that's in the for sale section (if its not sold). Cheapest way to get almost to your 200bhp target

Your looking at around £550-650 all in

5 years or 72k for cambelt 3 years or 36k for aux belt. Some people say 5 years, but I'd suggest 3

Lovely car. My boss has one identical to that. Still trying to get him let me have a go lol

It'll be hot metal cooling, and contracting. Probably

Looks like it needs to be worked a LOT more with a high grade paper, and then polished

Looks like you ran out of effort ;)

Looks good Ste!

Jesus! Typical "must get to middle lane as quick as possible" driver! Can't believe no one else in front stopped. c***s

The bugs are really beginning to piss me off now! Apps closing. Chrome slow as f**k. This f**king keyboard keeps opening and closing. It originally seemed to be spot on, but it seems to get worse by the day. My Mrs is having a nightmare with hers aswell.
