Both got silencers that dont do a lot. Extra van got black flagged at Donington for apparently 98.5db on driveby😅 Croft also reckon i triggered the driveby on a sighting lap a couple of years ago and retested me. Never got pulled in again was bizarre.
My old gtt with no silencers at all done...
1st few jobs done daft couple of hours this morning.
Bonnet wouldnt open without a 2 man job and bumper was badly fitted/ziptie special. Whipped front end off and adjusted bonnet stops etc.

Here we go again.
Got a random message off a lad i knew from years ago asking if i wanted to buy a car just before i went on hol. Initially said no, but because im an idiot i cannot just say no and a few beers in the sun in Turkey im asking for more info.
Was a bit of a slow starter after...
Citric acid works great. If heavily pitted twke out and wire brush and chuck them back in for longer.
The aftermarket outer arb bush brackets are prob better than oe
Common issue sadly and good job you noticed it. I bought a set when they were the rage years ago for boost hoses and have removed them all for jubilees due to them backing off.
Ive been trying to get the Kangoo ready since about March. Almost ready can confirm its running pretty well after tonights extensive data logging. Just another half day of small jobs to do 🤯🤞
Change the relay in the fusebox thans clicking, check for corrosion on terminals. If that does not work then do some diagnostics on wiring check voltages with key in crank position obviously disconnected from starter before changing ths starter.
From a quick google 97 octane is available trackside.
If you have something fruity and tuned for higher 99 octane then there is a tesco and shell garages within 30 mins drive.

Went to Asda on Tuesday in it and heard the cars on track at Teesside so popped over. On way back was nice evening/sunset so got some pics down the sea front on way back...
Cheers mate ! Vxr driver just give up. I also made a 19 reg golf gtd go backwards fast. Was hilarious as he was trying to be clever and failed. Laughed at him:LOL:

Blue clio started vibrating under braking a week or so ago quite intermittently assumed discs and pads on their way.
Got worse fast this week, and as doing loads of miles again needed attending to sharpish. Grabbed drivers side wheel and loads of 3-9 oclock movement, track rod end was...
Buy the ktec connector and rob the o rings off it and fit on your current pipe. Its generally the o rings that hold it in place tight.
I wouldnt attempt to swap the full connector to the plastic pipe without the right tools as it needs to be push fitted into the pipe.
This method could work...
Cheers mate. It seems to just be like a meglio with a frock, wheelbase is 200mm shorter and 170mm shorter than 182.
Lsd pulls it about a little on camber on the roads which keeps you on your toes. It struggles with traction at higher torque levels compared to megane rs even though weight is...

Had a look at the old damaged actuator. It looks like its either been dropped or crushed at some point (not by me) didnt notice until removed. Assume it was working before diaphragm split.
Its in the bin now and that saga is over.
Got a pair of michelin pilotsport 5 to replace the bald...
Indeed it would fit my stack dash. I was going to fit one but spent an horrendous amount of money on the sequential one instead, brighter than the sun in daytime mode
