mk2 Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Hey hey, an open air with BBS alloys! Nice 👍🏻 Why do you need to remove everything? That is a lot of work... It looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedriver Posted April 1 Author Report Share Posted April 1 Thanks! I think it really look good! I want to remove some parts because I want to know my car perfectly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted April 1 Report Share Posted April 1 You can remove the engine under tray and wing liners to check everything. You can see from below the car. You don't need to remove the wings and bonnet. I would check inside the sills for corrosion. You need to remove the rubber bungs to have a look. If necessary, you can spray more wax inside when it is dry. 👍🏻 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the most expensive reason to disassemble your car. You can apply to work at breakeryard for a day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedriver Posted April 2 Author Report Share Posted April 2 Ok! I will check the sills , but they are kitted out because they had rust. I will try to remove the engine when I will have enough time. How much do you think I could get for the rims?( not that I want to sell them, although I would love to have some BBS RS ) Thanks for all advice!

Thedriver Posted April 5 Author Report Share Posted April 5 Hello, I disassembled the car a bit today and I have a few questions: I found some oil at the air filter, but I heard that this oil reaches there through the EGR because of worn piston rings. Should I be concerned or not? If I have a broken clip on the front grille, how can I replace it? For now, I glued it with a hot glue gun. I closed the sunroof manually with a special Allen wrench in the interior light. I saw the motor, and it's the one that makes a noise when I operate the sunroof. What could be wrong with it? Where should the fog lights be installed since I don't have a dedicated spot on the grille? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thedriver Posted April 19 Author Report Share Posted April 19 I removed the catalytic converter from the car to delete the whole exhaust system, just to see how it would sound with an open pipe. I think it sounds really nice—I made a video and then put the muffler back on. What do you guys think?
