    New exhaust is too noisy...

    Just a pain I've got to drive it like this for 2k and then drive 70 effin miles to Leeds again.

    New exhaust is too noisy...

    Just rang the guy, he said put 2k miles on it, if it's still too noisy he'll stick some extra baffles in it, not a problem, he'll quiten it down. Seems pretty decent of him?

    New exhaust is too noisy...

    Seriously, it will quieten? Does sound like there's no back box... Is a lovely looking bit of kit tho.

    New exhaust is too noisy...

    Just bought a longlife complete system for my 172, from a longlife franchise. The quality looks good, but it's boomy at idle and too noisy from inside the car; sounds like there's no back box. The guy asked how loud I wanted it, and I said quiet, as I do a lot of m'way miles. He said 'mild...

    Seen the video camera performance? Aside from some lip sync issue, it looks great: http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/features/item/Camera_Nitty_Gritty-Part_8-The_Ultimate_Video_Smartphone.php Nokia N93: 17/20 Nokia N82/N95: 16/20 Samsung INNOV8/i8510: 15/20 (because of lip sync they say) Nokia...

    Milltek full 172 system...

    Think I'll be getting a Longlife full system for about £500 fitted; getting a milltek seems too pricey just now and the fit, from what I've read aint always great. Waiting for longlife to fit me in. Anyone already got one?

    Aye, would it not be too loud then?

    Milltek full 172 system...

    I need a cat too. The £710 quote I got included a cat. K-tec stealth + cat is about £660

    Milltek full 172 system...

    k-tec is still a lotta money is it not? Only £50 difference before postage.

    Milltek full 172 system...

    I'm tempted to buy the above, but at £700 it's a whole lotta moolah. I've got an original exhaust on just now, well pattern cat, rear and original centre. This is only a couple of years old at best. It has never sounded good, and right now sounds w**k. Not blowing, but sounds like it is...

    So the inside advice from voda is to buy a voda only phone.... Admittedly the battery isn't the best thing about the N95, but I still think it's the best phone for me. More annoying is the build quality. Another concern with the INNOV8 is a lot of apps for s60 devices are compatible only with...

    Eagle F1 tyre wear

    They are immense. Good in dry, impressive in the wet. Everyone says put your best tyres on the back. I didn't before I had a full set of new tyres. I preferred to have best grip at the front for acceleration and braking in the wet. However I did get A LOT of oversteer when going too fast...

    Eagle F1 tyre wear

    Is it? So PE's last twice as long? All the tyres I've had on the 172 seem to last as long as each other; p zero, conti, yoko etc...

    Eagle F1 tyre wear

    Can't comment yet, I've only had mine a couple of months. Would be interested myself tho...

    I think I'll be sticking with my n95 forever. This looks tempting, but I prefer the looks of the N96. Really would like an N96 with the INNOV8's camera and a xenon flash. Can't win unless I build my own phone!

    Innov8? Similar to a n95 n96 then... 8MP camera. Does it have zoom, xenon flash? Is it big?

    04 plate 172's

    Could you not just buy an OEM H/U from a different year to solve this or a wire? Not criticising, just wondering how you could get around the prob.

    Your home AV Setups!!

    I use my PS3 as a hub, sharing pictures, video and audio wirelessly from my laptop with media sharing. Works really well. My set up aint high end. But does me: Philips 32" Sony Playstation 3 Sony CD Player (lovely, but never used these days) Pioneer old school Amp. Freesat Humax...

    The door lock button inside?

    Yeah, it's switchable. If that's a word. Think you press and hold to switch autolock on/off.

    OE Tyre for the 172 Cup?

    Contis are a fine all round tyre, price/grip/wear. I'm really liking my goodyear f1s right now tho.

    Advice on front pads, and where to get them

    I got a set of ferodo, after much grief, through motorworld. Not DS2500s, but they were cheaper than OEM. Can't fault them. Nothing wrong with standard tho.

    Tyre Pressures

    Just make sure you inflate your tyres when cold. Apologies for stating the obvious.

    Tyre Pressures

    Yeah, think book is 33f 31r. Just checked mine today, and they were down a fair bit. Must be the cold weather, as they're never down. Car felt immense today once pumped up,
