    Servicing info please?!!!

    Nagh, I can spot tight fisted time wasters Chi we get calls from them daily "just asking for advise" which translates to "will you tell me how to do this myself for free" then they're always the first to plead poverty when their car breaks.

    Do it... or don't, it's your car but don't come crying if a tensioner fails or the belt snaps. Remember that the parts are subject to stress from temperature and pressure even when the vehicle is stood both off and at idle speeds.

    Can 10w40 oil be used after using 5w40 ?

    As long as it meets relevant standards don't fall for the brand rubbish. Also there's nothing wrong with using a 10w/40 semi-synth as long as you don't try and make it last 12-18k between service intervals.

    Dephaser noise

    I always ask that if customers are happy that they tell who ever they like but if they are unhappy in anyway that they tell me first. Unfortunately no manufacturer of any mechanical assembly can assure 100% reliability 100% of the time of its components but by using genuine parts you do reduce...

    Dephaser noise

    Sure it's the dephaser? I only use genuine parts yes but as with all things in life, sometimes things go wrong. Drop me a PM with your registration and an invoice number would be handy to and I'll dig out the job card. In the meantime, drop me an email via the website and I will get you in...

    Fuel rail guard

    So hit a bit of cast metal that was specifically designed to take a blunt impact and resist such impacts then in doing so risk breaking the lower inlet plenum/plastic fuel rail or worse (and slightly extreme), rip the M6 grade 8.8 studs out of the head? Yeah, I wouldn't do that.

    Bad MX5 wiring after "Specialist" work

    Nagh, I'd let them loose on all the cars the dodgy car traders and taxi drivers bring in for massive jobs which in their experience won't cost anymore than £5
