Ricey

Totally basic.......so again lets go back to the fact that your comment is still patronising, condacending and largely pointless. You only learn by making mistakes and receiving useful advice to rectify them.......not from receiving comments about how 'capable' you are. [mod edit: Now now Paul.....]

It was working before though.....can't blame them for that.

Some real constructive advice

Clicking noise isn't usually good......to my knowledge it spells a chewed up cog which isn't uncommon on elec windows. Definitely not turned off the electric windows with the switch on the drivers side accidentally have you?

*sigh* if only I had more to do in work this would possibly be worth a ban. As it is I can't give up at least 4 hours paid entertainment a day

You have definitely bought the right discs and pads haven't you?

Do to have after market wheels on your car mate? Noticed you've been looking for rays.?

Hmmm just reread Why it it above max after you've lost fluid? Air lock?

When you push the pistons back it can for force fluid out of the reservoir. You topped it back up?

Car market flooded. Specialist car Buyers market Bottom line you have GOT to make the ad stand out other wise it's just another in the myriad of adverts. Price usually is the major factor in lack of interest though. I just spent over 65 quid advertising my z4 and eventually sold it on a free advert on the z4 forum.

"PEOPLE" who are these people you speak of?? and how do they know what your thinking? This forum is strange....... It took 2years to realise this????

Somewhere over glasgow

Thats the chap. To be honest I reckon he's dropped a bollock somewhere along the line with it and he was over attentive. Perhaps with my skinhead I now look really hard and not to be messed with...................who knows

Looks a shite sight tastier than the wok and go I've just had

Hooooooly Jesus. Gearbox was definitely not working before!

Cost us about £350ish I think from an indy (supplied own engine oil, plugs and filter); - Oil drop & filter change. - Diff oil change - Gearbox oil change - Brake fluid change They supplied the brake fluid, gearbox oil and diff oil (one of which was a bloody fortune!)

I did a 2.45 min run to the Spar t'other night.........and that road has speedbumps

your so cool.

I said to him - I have literally no faith or expectations from people I deal with these days and you've very clearly bucked that trend because you've given a @*!# and not tried to wriggle out of it. From his pespective he's just bought my custom moving forward and a load of decent recommendations should I speak to anyone.

Car is winging its way back to me as I type with...................wait for it.....................................£1800 of gearbox repairs which he will be forwarding onto the company who supplied him the rad. He's also replaced some sort of 'electrical board' which the gearbox company said needed doing but wasn't as a result of any errors made in the last repair. He said it cost £200 and I can pay him if I want.......if not then I don't have too. Fair play to this chap (provided the car is fixed!) he's been very reasonable about all this.

Yes! Well lets not get ahead of ourselves........its not back on the road yet!

Would you drive it? Yup, why not? As long as there's some supporting mods, and with a FMIC conversion I'm assuming there is, that would be a really fun car. Bless......he is an Essex boy remember

So there was water in the system? There was ...the rad had failed thats why the rad is being changed Ok, will filling the system back up with ATF get rid of the gylcol issue? Well there will be no more glycol but your asking the wrong man mate. Gearbox specialist is looking at it so I'm taking his word on trust. New rad, ATF flush and anti judder can sometimes cure it apparently (if glycol has not been in for too long). Also replacing corroded bits so I've just got to hope they are comfortable with that. If was running perfect for 15 miles which suggests to me that the torque converter was not damaged but a secondry problem started because the wrong rad and insufficient ATF were in the system.

I had 50 runflats on the z4 and the handelling was awesome. 40's on the rx8 which made me near foul myself.

No that is a really cool car. I couldn't see myself sinking 10k on one but I couldn't see myself sinking 10k on a skyline either
