I may just wait until I take them off for winter and get them sorted while the centres are getting re sprayed, that seems the most logical option!
-
One of my friends suggested that to me, its still gunna be a pain I think and would be so much easier if I could take them all out. i want to the sand the lips to get rid of all the **** thats build up on them. Will I lose tire pressure If i only take out a few at a time while the tire is still inflated?
-
also, I was wondering is there any way i can polish the lips of my turbos without taking the tires off? i want to get at the areas in between the bolts and its a friken nightmare with them all in, can I deflate the tires and then just take all the bolts out and then polish? Do I even need to deflate the tire? This may sound a really stupid question but these are my first splits so i have no idea!

alright so once again i have left to ages before posting anything, but not much has changed with the car. picked up some pressed plates at edition which is something which I have been meaning to do for a while as my old plates look minging: Im still after some second hand cambridge lights if anyone knows of any let me know! after some thought i have decided to take the back seats should be coming out in the next couple of weeks, i figured i never use them and i miss not have a decent sound system! Only photo from edition and a few random ones i got yesterday;

ok so my power steering is leaking and has been the last couple of months, I have to keep topping it up every couple of days, I mentioned it to my friend and he said there is something I can pour which will seal the pipe and stop the leak. Can anyone shed any light on this?

I took a round piece of wood and a heat gun to them the other day, turned out better than I expected!
-
are there any "how to" threads about removing my rear wiper? If so can someone give me the link? Ive had a quick look in the search bar but nothing came up.
-
yea i figured it out once i posted it on Facebook thanks! thanks man
-
they most certainly are at a good home! can anyone tell me what this is?? I have only just seen it and I have no idea what it is!!
-
right so in light of all that, I'm not going to bother buying one at the moment and just drill my air box!

Right so yesterday I tried to roll my arches on my own! It was a little harder than I first thought. Armed with a hair drier and a round piece of wood I attacked! I managed to roll them back slightly without cracking any of my paint. It should be enough to get them out the way when I take the rear adjusters out. Which should have been today but my friend let me down! While the car was up on the jacks I lowered the front down a little, easier said than done because I don't have any C spanners! loads of WD40 and some elbow grease later the front is sitting a little lower now. Its funny, the lower the car gets then the thinner my wallet becomes! Gave him a little bath as well while I was at it. Im going to try and take my rear wiper out today if I get around to it, ill upload some photos if I get it done!

does anyone know where I can get my arches rolled in or around Milton Keynes?
