Yes - air may get into the cylinders and EXPLOOOODE !
It could be quicker if the timing wasn't correct in the first place, however there's a good chance you're just suffering from the placebo effect of having servicing done.
;)
Open bonnet and track down the noise ?! You'll need a friend to rev it as you've no butterfly to twist. Should be pretty obvious where it's coming from !

I've got:
Sigma 10-20mm 4-5.6
Canon 50mm F1.8 II
Tamron 70-300
Canon's 7D other kit-lens.. 15-85 USM
I use them all for different things TBH. Totally depends what I want to do :)
Edit: That one helped with a lot of polishing, and also a CPL filter on the lens. It's a polarising filter...
^ How can you not like the geerarf pic ?
I was clearly joking about the rest. You've definitely got an eye for it.
Crystal clear compared to what chap ? I'm using a mid-range D-SLR with half decent glass (ish...). Sunny days means lots of light, so the camera can take a super-fast shot...
With my 450d, I had my kit (18-55) for a few months by itself, then bought a 10-20 and a 50mm and a zoom (55-250).
The Sigma (10-20) is still my most favouritiest lens EVERRRRR.. the 50 I wouldn't be without, but the zoom got used about 5 times in a year.
Jessops looking at lenses is pretty...
I had the 55-250 IS .. very very nice lens, (if you look through my flickr you might find some examples in there from a year ago) but I prefer the 70-300 tamron at full zoom, plus it has the macro ability. If you look at the specs of the lens, it will tell you it's minimum focusing distance...
I've got that Tamron lens .. does everything adequatly. No complaints what so ever for the price !
Don't think it will give you images like some L spec glass would.. but then it's 1/10th of the price of a basic L.
Some sample pics:
Couple of weeks ago, through the double-glazing, no...
Very personal choice .. budget and feel are down to you ! Get to Jessops and try out the current range ? Buy another D40 ?!
If you want to upgrade to something a bit nicer, my new-ish 7D feels much more grown up than my 450D, but at ~3x the price, it should do ! :o
My landlord painted the grouting in the shower before I moved in....
Make a note chaps - this does look good, until the first time you use the shower.
:dead:
Week 2/52 for me. Total lack of time/enthusiasm/ideas. It was either the woman, or her new steed... I'd like to wake up in the morning so here's the bike !
No.2 - 52 @ 50mm by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr
Ideas for week three coming up already... bought some ND filters so will see what...
Not bad !
If you need more light, try a longer shutter time .. also, white balance needs to be cooooooooled right off, to take that wonderful orange glow out of the pic.
My first attempts were shoooooite. You dun good :approve:
Not sure I understand any of this thread ?! "Having issues with fuel dissapearing based on the trip computer after my car cuts out."
It's saying that based on the driving you've done since last filling up, it's estimating 50 miles left. Go fill it to the brim and see how much you put in...
Car as a present ? Lucky you haha !
If that was my car I'd definitely be hiding those 6x9s... I'd make sure it was clean (see detailing section on here) .. sort the tyres/brakes as mentioned above .. then sort the hifi out. Decent stereo (alpine would be my choice for starters but they do...
Interpret it any way you want !
Something that is blue (obviously lol) .. a really sad looking dog ? Something that sums up January ?
Use your imagination, old chap ;)
Ok, so as there seems to be no one else starting one, I'm going to go for it ! Everyone seems a little depressed in one way or another at the moment, so how about:
Comp 1: January blues.
