Before I go ahead, I have directly contacted a few people who I think are up to the job, but would just like to double/triple check on other peoples opinions and advice
I am looking for ideas on which exhaust to go for (aftermarket) and whether anyone knows of a 2nd hand one for sale? Maybe after a decat too. I want the end pipes to fill the holes, or at least be bigger than the naff standard ones
Would prefer full system, dont mind cat back. For now my exhaust is ok, just a rattle from one of the mount things which I will mention below!
I want to have the car fully serviced, need to know which oil to use on the car, and which spark plugs, oil filter etc please.
Is there a recommended place to buy all the service useables etc.
Any advice appreciated, just want to get all the bits together for the servicing, drop my car into a garage (or specialist if someone can recommend one!) and get it all done. Its due the cambelt soon, may aswell get it done at the same time.
I do have a close relative who I trust with my car to have the servicing done, but would rather have a specialist on these cars do the cambelt, as I know my mechanic has never done one on a 182, so would not want to put that on him for his first 182 cambelt job! I do trust him, just would rather have someone who works on them everyday to do that particular job. For all else my mechanic can probably sort all the usual servicing etc, seems pretty basic from what the car needs doing
Is it better for me to buy all the consumables, parts etc, then take it to a garage, or is there a garage or specialist that people use on here, who can supply the parts for a good price (for servicing and the cambelt)
A problem I have, is the cat to front pipe mounting thing (the one that looks like a spring, not sure whatever they are called) one has broke, so there is a split in the sealing one side of the pipe (drivers side)
Does anyone know the part number for these bits and are they difficult to fit? Do they come as a complete fitting kit or set?
Hope ive not confused everyone with my million requests, and if ive repeated myself apologies!!! :dapprove:
Might have some other questions too!!! :lolup:
CHEERS!
