Fully agree but this country has gone to poo!! tax tax tax tax tax even tax on tax, luckily for me fuel has droped 8p per ltr due to a new morrisons and has caused a battle between the stores!!, as for batterys like u say there defo far from it i use cordless drills ect everyday and the memory fails also have found the lithium is goin that way too! u would have fort they would have built some sort of dynamo so you had a constant charge!!
  3. Cheers bud! yeah its all good here!! iv had loads of help since day one!! much appriciated! if only i had a driveway or garage!!!!!! if it were the case my car would be in pieces and id be driving a cheeky cento lol, would love to strip mine and full nut n bolt rebuild and powdercoat everything underneith full poly bush id go for the full werx but for now i can only dream!! next step is to get me some x5 rims!!

  6. I hope to god i havent!! if i had the no how id put a v8 or v10 inside lol
  7. Madness!!! no not seen this one!! good stuff! one i see was a silver e36 m3 cant belive the power!! were i park my car on a daily basis theres a electric clio alwas on charge and been stuck behind him doin 20 very annoying!!!! this is what made me think nah! but after seeing this i could be for it if all is tunable!!

  9. Shes still goin very sweet!!!! just got to keep an eye out on the oil!! left for the whole day no oil spillage and no smoke on start up!! hopfully friday when it goes in for mot they wont find the cause!! Just wondered, if it did have a snapped piston would it sound noisy and run like poooo??
  10. Hi all iv just put a post up about my car drinking a good 7-7.1/2 litres of oil in around 4 weeks!! not good no oil leaks and no smoke i used magnatec 5w-30 fully synth and my car drank the lot is it too thin short life?? or would a drop of lucas stabilizer help cheers
  11. As for the dumpvalve if u do decide on one make it a good one and the right one!! iv made mistakes and lost money buying the right bov but not had the right spring!! alot differ on tension due to boost pressure and can leak i had this prob with my rs turbo and wrx it gave me alot of greif and didnt find out what it was untill i found out in a jap mag, imo turbo flutter is much better than blow off!! unsure if u get this on diesels regarding what daz was saying? thats some mental torque increase wish i had gome with a 330 diesel rather than petrol!! if it were me i get forced induction bigger intercooler and poss bigger turbo exhaust then look at remap with the increase from just a remap this should snap your neck lol
  12. Not good mate!! couple of weeks ago they done the white lines were i am and had white dots up one side and my car is black i went mental luckily it came off with t cut after trying clay, the coucil are a bugger to purswade mate a good mate of mine hit a pot hole and cracked his rim he had to take photos for proof of the hole and wheel what time ect 3 weeks down the line they did agree to pay out so could be worth a try??
  13. Hi mate! i do give it some when on carrage ways ect but not redlining it, the cars is a late 51 plate and has been sweet up untill now! i used to have a e36 328i 96 drove that the same but no issues, when we plugged her in after she died it came up wiv somthing to do with the vanos sensor? camshaft sensor has always come up but never been an issue! When tryng to start it it fired roughly then died it done this a few times but then gave up completly!! at first we fort it was the fuel pump as it didnt make the priming sound!! but since the tow start its been good as gold and fires on the button engine is smooth as they come!! il give it a steam clean and drive slow and see how i get on
  14. Good stuff! cheers mate i goin to put thru mot and if nothing is found il get the bay steam cleaned!! And hopfully i have a faulty dipstick lol!! as for the ccv i think it needs doin so if all goes well il treat her to a new one!!!! luckily i only do about 4 miles a day so if it is burnin oil shouldnt burn toooo much!!
  15. Might pay to buy a new ccv and hoses i have been told the breather systems are not too good and do fail. i hooked one of the hoses off to find it caked in crap oil or carbon?? as for mayo i only get it on the oil cap but only due to short journeys as when i do a good run it goes, but yeah il fill it up n drive her gently!! and see what happens on friday il get them to have a good look at leaks and then maybe if i have some money left get them to do a compresion test if its worth it? Thanks again bud!!
