Build date 24th ( Monday :D ) then from info on here around four weeks from that date. Possibly before Xmas but I doubt it. January I reckon. :(


Sounds good. Maybe an early Xmas present then. Have you agreed on a price for the PX or they waiting on what mileage you take it back on?

All agreed. On a PCP, no cash outlay and virtually no change in monthly payments :D

Ah I see :)

My dads looking into changing his m135i for a new one as there's crazy deals. 20% off list price with 4.9% pcp. He's gonna be able to sell it and use the equity as a deposit and end up paying less than he is now for a higher specced car!

No brainer then really. Just make sure you don't get stung with the balloon payment at the end since you do 90k a year haha b

Mine makes a single clattery noise when it fires up, very unique sound



Can you not get a helicoil in there?

I always avoided changing glowplugs on my old TDI for this very reason.:(

Quick question, what gearbox oil Weight do you guys use for the petrol FR2.0

I currently have 80W-120, gears feel stiff and hell..it was fine the first day but then it just got stiffer.

You need 75W-80, what you have in is completely wrong and I would get rid before driving the car again :blink:

Changed my LED tick lights back to standard so I can sell the car.

Now I have a spare set of lights, what to do eh? ;)

I'm tempted to just get read of the sound proofing on the bonnet, just looks a mess. Plus half the clips that hold it on have vanished.
