  1. Sh*t Hugh that's just f-ing scary behaviour
  2. Welcome to the forum Yup the dipstick is a bl**dy nightmare - but does sound low...surely though if you've just bought it its been serviced recently?
  3. +1 on that sticker Chadders
  4. Not worth your energy Stephen - just let it roll over you - he's a *****
  5. +1 - they're paying for that mate not you
  6. Neil, now that I know which dealership you're talking about I wouldn't chance any reason for them to turn down your multiple warranty claims - just throw the OEM exhaaust back on. Especially with the 'ticking' they'll prolly try and link the two together Also... with your clicky axle - don't let them get away with just re-greasing - it'll only come back
  7. lee's price has been 325 for ages, those that bought at £350 should have shopped around Oh sorry - thought it was only since the 16th
  8. Welcome to the forum There's loads of discussion on the intakes...not sure about impact on MPG though...some say go for CAI - some say pop charger - some say just upgrade your panel filter. You'll need to read all the evidence and make your own decision
  9. Crikey the folks that paid £350 are gonna feel robbed
  10. On the fast idle test first one was 0.36 % (marginal fail IMHO) second one was 0.74% - so in my case it also went up. It passed on the natural idle BTW - this is a 2004 1.6i Astra (with the twinport engine which supposedly is more economical and eco friendly ) - so its really not comparable to the zed
  11. Do you mean an engine flush treatment or a fuel treatment? They're two different products and procedures - or is the Havoline some wonder multi-purpose tratment? I only ask because I just went through similar with my other car....because its spent the last ten months pootling round town...a fuel treatment into the petrol tank and a 30 mile blast never going below 4k revs sorted it no probs
  12. Welcome to the forum Immediate thought is that its way overpriced - an 02 with 56k on the clock for £12k - erm no....the white does command a premium but not that much - suppose depends how much you like it...but for that money you could get an 04/54 with less mileage in any other colour bar red.

    No he was blinded ....by all the smoke coming out the back end
  14. Lets just hope he doesn't have to find out
  15. Remember sarah posted to say do not use Paypal for payments to her or Gaz - does this affect the site payments too?
  16. Chris - this went over the bridge the other day...and I thought of you CHOO CHOO
