Bilberry for the wheels for me, as long as its a decent paint job they've got.
Autoglym intensive tar remover seems quite acceptable on the tar end of things.
Glass cleaner I'm not sure tbh.
Brush for wheels/details (buy two, one for wheels, one for badges etc)...
Cheers mate, very kind of you, more changes to come, but its getting there, I want it minter than a trebor tbh.
Kiddo? :o lol! Cheers mate
I got scared from your avatar you'd chopped in the clio, I'm ok again now.
Could have done with a better camera tbh (iFail one sucks), but oh well.
FLOL! Sex life dried up??
Cheers mate, do like yours, RB's are awesome in the flesh.
Largely my editing/iphone pictures etc.
In real life its a good match, not an amazing one, but a good one.
May have it re-done some time. :)
That easy? Feck!
Getting the CV boot greased back up and in place will probably take me the longest, I suck at it tbh. The clips are a pain in the ass! lol!
I'm gonna hopefully get one in the next few days and get it done then, cheers chaps :)
Oh, and what size is the driveshaft nut?????
Brakes, yes, shaft, no.
Lol! It wasn't actually, although it was similar, got a bit of a thing for the scenic I think, just love ripping it apart! lol!
Chillax dude ;), thanks a lot for your help in here, I'll post up in here if I get stuck whilst trying to change it, but any idea on labour...
I've fixed it now, sorry about that, went a bit mental with the copy and paste :S
Sorry Meg, it was a day fixing stuff, not just messing about, but tbf, your car could do with it ;)
Oh, I also sourced a diamond for the front bumper so that I can figure out a nice way to smooth it down, cover...
After a day of trying to sort the issue with my car's binding front brake, me and Mike finally got it done, gave the Clio's a wash and took them up to the local Castle (wtf) just up the road?
Sorry the pics aren't great, ground was on the piss, and they're only taken on an iPhone.
Oh Daniel son, that sticking caliper that, "might just need greasing" FLOL!
It was siezed solid, so much so that the "slider" or whatever, was jammed into the carrier, so stuck that the head of the nut snapped right off, had to blow torch that crap out of it and then wack it out with a big...
You'll have to show me, I'll need to source a second hand shaft before I do anything else I guess... but at least we can see if thats defo whats up with it.
Bummer as I wanted to go to thorpe park on thursday :(
I could hug you sometimes Mike.
Only sometimes, mind. ;)
Cheers dude, looks like we'll be having both front wheels off, lol, we'll just jack it up from the middle.
Cheers for the advice, I'll get it looked at one day this week by the guys who did the cv boot, as I'm sure they'll take a look for nout.
Then I'll set about fixing it, second hand shaft time me thinks.
If I'm fitting a different shaft I may aswell fit new cv boots yes?
Jesus Daniel, how do you get out of bed in the morning seeing as you clearly couldn't work an alarm clock!!!
As Revels says, do the print screen, and post on here once you've followed his steps, then we'll see what we can do.
Would it not be better to get a new one? As couldn't a second hand one just end up fubar'd pretty quick??
So I haven't gotta drain the GB oil to do the drivers side? I'm farily confident it's that side, but is there anyway really easy tell tale signs? Or will it just be cv grease everywhere...
Its a facking messy irritating job though isn't it?
I'll get it checked on day next week then.
My car is very low, and I have to drive down one very bumpy road every day on the way to work, I think it could have killed it :(
I'll take the wheel off and check it out myself tmrw with MikeB as...
Next time it comes up press "prnt scrn" and then post the pic up on here, I'm assuming you know how to use print screen?? (not sure how technotarded you are)
Oh bummer :(
More money I don't have atm.
Is it gonna royally fubar anything driving it like this???
I may take it back to them and see what they say.
If I'd noticed it this morning I could have taken it in, s**t!
