  1. so here it goes, ive bought some Weller steels - 13" insurance will only allow upto 50mm lower (parents have said coilovers arent allowed as theyre adjustable) will it look abit better than it goes standard going for the Spax 40mm springs anyway? thanks
  2. had a problem with my 2002 1.0e yesterday, it has been parked all weekend, got in it yesterday night with just under a 1/4 of a tank of fuel in it, pulled off, drove about 100 yards and it kept loosing power with the 'Engine Check' light flashing at me, after changing down a gear and giving it some it cleared and now is running like a dream again, but the 'Engine Check' light is still on, not flashing but just illuminated, ive filled the tank back up, all seems fine, any ideas of what could have happened? some debris in the fuel lines/filter blocking the fuel? ive been told it could be the EGR valve, can anyone help me on how to change/clean it out? or water on plugs? can i reset the light myself or not? Thankyou
  3. I've got 2 hub centres that clip onto the wheel bolts and cover up the Inside of the steel wheels and hide the bolts if you we're interested don't hesitate to drop me a pm I've got 3 intact!

  5. ive got a budget of around £75 for some roof bars for my lupo, i need to know which ones will fit? im planning on fixing a bike carrier to them at some point too so mush be suitable. thankyou in advance
  6. im pretty sure its degree, and these tyres are rubbing even though im standard will 7J fit without illegal poke?
  7. i have bought these from jumble sale, need refurb but they are 15" 4x100 7J 35 degree, what tyres will i need to run to fit them on my standard lupo? thankyou
  8. how did you do that to hold the iphone with the vent?!! if you could tell me i would love to know
  9. thanks for the reply pete. garage time then
  10. i know how ive done this, i hit a big pothole (i live up country lanes) at around 40mph last night and now my steering wheel shakes and vibrates when im driving (50mph+) it also pulls to the left (i hit the offside on the pothole). im presuming it could be the tracking making it pull to the left but wandered if anyone knew anymore? i dont know if the tracking effects the vibration on the steering or could that be trackrod ends or wheel weights? if anyone could enlighten me to as what could be wrong i would very much appreciate it. thankyou all
  11. Me and a friend are going to colour code out bumpers front and rear silver, we have all the correct paint and primer, a few questions i needed answering are - - how long roughly should it take to complete? - do i need to remove the bumpers or just tape and spray? - how do i remove the bumpers? Thankyou
  12. Cant wait to see this as UD! Getting me some ideas for my Loop!
  13. Last night the lights on my heater panel stopped working as i was driving home, tried giving them the old 'bash' but that didnt do the trick. is it an indication of something else that isnt working to make you realise? this is sometimes the case on certain cars? anyone who could give me some insight to what the problem is, i would be much appreciated. thankyou in advance
  14. thanks buddy, what did it look like with -45? the only ones i can find are -40 or -60 so would have to be the -40 ones, im only really bothered about the arch gap, also what size wheels were you running with the -45?
  15. i need something set in stone because if i do this and i have an accident and im slightly lower than 50mm then they wont cover me and ill get sued for every penny im worth
  16. ive phoned my insurance about Lowering the Loop, they said i can have up to 5cm but no more as then they will not cover me, up to 5cm is an extra £43-75 per annum. how can i achieve up to 5cm but no more? lowering springs? i need help thankyou
