Yeah for whatever reason there was no way mine was going to fit round like that it came inwards too much. I had to saw down the two centre bits to get it to sit flush to the bumper so I could screw it on and also sawed off a inch off each end.

Swapped wheels front to back to even out wear. Fitted new front brake pads. All with ice still on the car brrrr. Anything to get out of the house after being cooped up indoors over Christmas Lol

christmas eve had 2 new front lower suspension arms, rear os bearing/hub, oil & filter, fuel filter changed gearbox oil and tracking. when they did the tracking they didn't have the settings for the diesel so used the petrol selection, is that ok? oh and a wash

 

[Grayboy]

Topped the oil up today and discovered this!

I'm assuming head gasket?

On the plus side think I've isolated my starting issue to something under the battery tray as after wiggling all the wiring under that it starts.

What spacers have you fitted do get that stance? I have my Turbo wheels on atm (winter tyres), but dont like how the wheels sit (inwards)

 

[Ronin225]

that's normal, no need to worry unless there is lots of mayo deposit

 

[Grayboy]

Nah that was it, thank god for that.

Does it do a lot of short journeys?

Take it for a longish drive to get temperatures up nice and hot.

Spent most of the day re doing all of the main power wiring through the car, just waiting on the sealant to cure overnight to reassemble
Also booked a open pitlane trackday in Feb for a bargain £79

It does unfortunately, a problem of living in London.

Has done a couple of 100+ miles recently looks like I need to find excuses for a few more.

Cheers fellas.

Cleaned what I could of my EGR valve without dismantling it (albeit I was told to take it off and soak it in petrol to clean it thoroughly, will do that another time ) and also put a bottle of Injector Cleaner in my tank. Gave the car a thrashing as well, well my brother did haha

Took of one of the front wheels to have my first attempt at changing brake pads. They didn't need doing. I thought they might because of squeaking... used a wire brush on the two 7mm pins and put lots of anti-seize on them... no squeaking so far.

Yep, theres a few of us going, probably will be wet and cold so I think the wets will be used again so I can feel like im cheating again
