Nissan 370Z | Spotted https://www.pistonheads.com/regulars/ph-spottedykywt/nissan-370z--spotted/40377

Washed the car last night and used the Turtle Wax as a drying aid. Absolutely blown away by its use, wrestled the water away in pretty much one pass. Had a noticeable drag feel to spreading but I wasn't sure if that was because I was using the product wet. So went over again on the horizontal surfaces dry and still the same. This prompted me to give the panel a second pass which is good practice anyways. SHW is what I always wanted AutoGlym Aqua Wax which I just didn't get along with, as it was effort to use and achieve the results I wanted. Considering it takes seconds to apply to a car you're already going to dry with a towel is a total no brainer. Back to its water management during use, the most evident was with the wheels. Normally with a microfiber it gets so wet that during the second wheel I'm purely pushing the water about, having to regularly fold to a fresh side. Not this time, the same folded side while using this sealant as a drying aid did all four wheels in a one pass look and feel. Of course a gave them a second pass not to dry but to buff off. Had a light shower come by so took the opportunity for a couple pictures. Rain drops didn't appear to be under alot of tension, but possibly not enough rainfail to flood the panel. Very uniformed beads no leas, so still very happy. Easy of use 9/10 Value for money 10/10 Added shine & gloss 9/10 *looked like I spent hours glazing and waxing by hand. Durability *unknown as yet, however is meant to be 3/4 months. Would I use it again? Definitely, an excellent product.

Replacing this bush is labour intensive, you don't loose a drop of oil so there's no need to replace.

Enjoyed that pal, considering what they are I wouldn't be looking to pay no more than what you have.

To be fair the youtube reviews of the MPS4 shown on a Focus ST and a e92 M3 with very similar comments towards overall performance, demonstrating a good tyre is a good tyre. No wonder super car owners crash so much, they must all had off the shelf tyres (same make & model) and not tyres from the manufacturer direct.

Makes a noticeable improvement on the drive of the car afterwards too, good upgrade I felt.

You don't drive fast enough to unsettle Chinese retreads lol

Bump for a summer run out? We culd do with cheering up after all this rain

You could if they were faulty, but this isn't the case they're just ropey rubbers.

I've only ever spun one car and it had P Zero's on. When I bought my Zed it had Michelin on the front and Nexen on the rear, never once had an issue on road or track. Stick your rears on eBay

Will be giving this a rinse at the weekend hopefully

I have a Holts fluid can in the Zed also, I've read that the manufacturers ones have a used by date but couldn't find this info for the Holts offering? Yeah the hole is plugged from the outside, ie a roadside repair. As you pull the tool out of the tyre leaving the folded plug, the for needed must mushroom the plug also on the inside creating a patch as the plug is super sticky.

PM'd back

I had the same issue a few years back after Kwik Fit replaced my battery under warranty via the supplying garage. The negative terminal would work loose and the car would randomly loose power. I replaced the nut and bolt on the lead and it's allowed for a touch more clamping force which has been fine ever since.

Nice one pal for clearing that up, of course very interesting and all exposure is good exposure and he's used the negative news combined with the negative feedback and come up with a positive. Reminds me when Thor first meet Iron man and used his hammer to direct a lightning bolt at him, it ended up charging up his suit to 300% Any updates on your channel Neil?

It's like anything roadside that's a test or measure of a vehicle, you'll then have a ticket to have it checked within X amount of days by a vat registered repairer.

Didn't come with any glue, having used this type of repair kit once didn't feel the need for anything more. Carried out the repairs while it was raining which was useful as the wet tread would have showed any air leaks after repair.

+1 for the Ctek charger. I have it setup whereby I can charge/top up the battery without needing to gain entry to the vehicle. Have the supplied leads connected to the battery and then led up towards the wipers as an external plug point.

Not specific to the 350z, had anyone bought or used one of these kits? Couple of mates have had punctures gone to a garage for repairs and they've plugged it and sent them in their way. The repair is similar to what the AA and RAC etc do for members, treated as a permanent repair. I bought a kit for emergencies and the other morning noticed the wifes Nissan Note N/S rear tyre was flat. Screw dead center of the tread, so used the kit and thus far it's been fine. Cut the plug a bit proud of the tyre, so it would wear in a tad and blew the tyre up to spec. Will buy another kit to leave in the Zed now. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00ISFHBWE/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=A66GM1OKAU2KN&psc=1

Ello n welkom

I would first check the door switches on the b posts. Then carry out a window auto up/down reset.

Think it's fair to say non of us know for sure, only our residential youtuber @vroom811 would know what's what

Plus it's passive income, doubt it's cash in hand payment. Bank transfers wouldn't be too hard to audit from a taxable pov.

Dunno how much 500k views earns, maybe a couple thousand.
