Haha only because it was such a disgrace I got our polish friends to sort it out on the way there..
And yeah I guess they are alright for some dirty old vans :wink:
going to the bury fireworks with the gf at like half 6 but I'll try and make it down and see people before that! Car is disgustingly dirty at the moment but ah well lol
Hi I need a new rear brake calliper piston dust cover but I can only find them in repair kits for like £30! I only need one of them so this is a little ridiculous..
Anyone know where is a cheap place to get one?
cheers
I never got round to updating this (incase people searching for similar issue in future)... It was the difference in wear on the front tyres which caused it to pull. Didn't realise it would make such a big difference! cured with new tyre
yep just used some fabric cleaner stuff I found in the cupboard scrubbed it and let it soak for about half an hour.. then just rinse in clean water and pull them as far as you can out of the car and close the door on them to dry
and they are these...
cheers! yeah the 182 wheels have grown on me, but still think it would look better on them
thanks mate :) ok sounds good the amount of times I've dropped a nut/washer etc and its got lost in the stones aha..
Long time no update! Have made several changes over the last few months and it’s now getting to how I imagined when I bought it :)
Screwed the splitter back on and you can barely see the crack so didn't replace as I'm a tight b*****d
First sorted the grimy seatbelts
Next thought I’d...
ah ok thanks interesting
had new pads fitted about 1000 miles ago so I could check for uneven ware on both sides I guess, cheers
unfortunately not the problem - if only things were that easy! lol
... when I got the car the front passenger side tyre had been replaced recently but not the...
when I let the wheel go while in a straight line the wheel turns slightly to the right and starts pulling that way.
it's an 05 plate but not sure if they've been changed recently so that might be something to look into
and not 100% sure but it is possible it had a little bump (can't see any...
The 182 used to pull to the right but I was planning on getting it lowered so put it off so I could get it done at the same time as after that... had it lowered and tracked and was expecting it to be fixed but still pulling to the right after.. any ideas on how to fix it?
cheers :)
Yeah that's not too bad for 4 actually
Not sure if I'm honest, rest of the car is in pretty good condition
ah ok good to have a differing opinion - is yours a daily?
Cheers for the advice guys- I was leaning more towards cooksports anyway but keep seeing nice looking clios on coilovers which is not helping the situation...
I have a cup pack 182 so if I put the cooksports on would I need new cup shocks? or would the current ones be fine?
cheers
problem is I'm thinking a lot of people say cooksports have a pretty hard ride/can be crashy, so for a daily I could just get coilovers which would be a hard ride as well, but then I'd get the better looks out of it as well..
Currently can't decide what option to go with between Cooksport springs and Cup shocks, or £500 ish coilovers for my 182 daily..
Cooksports:
Pros: cheaper, highly rated, not too low for daily
Cons: Maybe not low enough (especially considering I might get 15s, which might look lost in the...
it always surprises me how little feel of the road you get from other cars.. been driving a 1.2 corsa hire car this week and it's like driving round in a bubble. No engine noise and little response from steering/ accelerator. Plus its slow as balls.
Can't wait to get back to my clio today
