Thanks for not clearing that up

Good, a few more need nabbing for it too! Regarding the gorilla fine Stu, does that mean he is given a gorilla to look after or his gorilla is taken away, it's not clear?

Welcome along

I went from the 4 to a 6 and it's more than good enough for what I need (not what you asked I know).

Welcome along

Thanks for all your hard work Colin

No It didn't unfortunately.

You have been busy, nice build.

What a difference a day makes and a fresh head, did other 3 wheels in just over 2 hours! I picked the only one with seized caliper bolts as my first one to change as it turned out , all the others were straight forward

Cheers Alex, I might have another go when my back recovers. I hate being beat by a job.

What I did... is probably very wrong... but worked... First I sprayed penetrating fluid on the bolts and then I used a large hammer/mallet to tap the spanner until it was loose enough to turn by hand. That's what I did for the rear caliper but it just won't budge the front. I've given up now as my back is totally done in and my swearing was getting louder, guess I'll have to let the garage do it.

How do people undo the caliper bolts? I cant get a breaker bar in there as not enough space and they are seriously tight. Am I missing a trick because after 6 hours out there I've manage to do 1 rear disc and pad change. Give me motorbikes anyday!

Stunning Jeff.

They have been really well done, weather it's to my taste or not .....well that doesn't really matter

I always use a hairdryer too

Good read Matt. There is a paragraph repeat in there though

Yeah I would say its the bonnet if the problem has only started since changing it. Try packing out the switch so it presses on better.

Sorry to hear this Wendy, I'm sure the insurance company can't write it off if you insist you don't want it to be, it's your car and you own it. I guess you could agree an amount of money and get it repaired yourself.

Check the inner door panel to make sure the bolts not from there.

I had both my door cards off at the weekend and no bolts dropped out.

Nice looking car.

I bet your glad that's over.

Oh and check your oil level regularly

Just put it down to experience and enjoy the car.
