On a long run I've seen 40-45mpg easy and around 30-34 general so it ain't bad:)

Or if that fails do it again and type "fixboot" where you typed chkdsk /r

+1 Plenty of better things to spend 2k on imo

Having the centre cap stolen could have happened with any car though. Apart from the ones without of course.

wtf:S

On the advice of others on here and my mechanic (after he had checked it) I didn't bother changing the pump when I got mine done.

I'm happy with mine.

I've resorted to turning mine off in the wet now when I know I will have to give it some to get in a gap at the junctions..... It would be interesting to hear what others are like or what they're like from out side the car.

I paid £270 (mates rates) the other month. Would normally be £300.

you must be mad to pay that!

I would rather have most diesels over a 1.2 in all fairness;)

I bet the excess that some of these young drivers would have to pay must be laughable tbh.

Maybe the old one had the accustic valve removed or air feed disconected from the side of the air box? Might explain the lack of noise.

Well it is true:D I got mine done just the other week. Based in Huddersfield so not to far and he is a cambelt specialist too. With new spark plugs, oil and everything for the 5 year service you will be looking at about £400 all in (as Dan says). PM me if interested.

Not worth the risk imo, just get it done on time then you don't have to worry about it anymore. Thats what I've just done.

£250 for my 172 stealth and very happy with it so far:approve:

£300 for cam/aux belt change over my way.

Sorry to jump the thread but is it Storthes Hall where people go mountain biking round the back in the woods?

ASAP

Nice projector, can't beat them for a bit of COD and the like..... Here's mine:D 92 inch 720P limited by the depth of the room.

Same here, only seen a few. Sure I've seen Faxo round Outlane way a few times mind?

Try it, sounds much better imo:cool:

Had mine off for ages now. I still managed to get 45mpg on a very boring 90 mile motorway run and my normal running about seems to be the same as it was with it. Can't notice any difference in performance whats so ever.

Unlucky, could you not hear it knocking or any other symptoms?

Gutted, but at least your in one piece.

PM'd

Pull the lid off the steering column (no screws) and check the connection behind that. That's what caused the airbag and service light on mine a while ago.

I got mine done by a cam belt specialist near me for £270 (mates rates). Should be £300 to anyone else and that's a normal 172 with climate....

They might go down a bit by December but not much imo. You have to decide if its worth paying that little extra to have it now and start enjoying it or wait a few months to save a few hundred at most. You could end up waiting for ever with that way of thought because if you wait from December...
