what have you done to your car today ?

[meehaja]

Fitted TT strut brace this afternoon, if I can share one tip it is magnets! A strip of bendy magnet wrapped round the top of the turret catches all the steel fillings!

I also tried to fit a cold air feed, but after taking everything apart, I decided it was too much like hard work and I have to go to work soon, so smoothed and drilled the airbox and put it all back together!

its night and day when you fit a front brace,handles much better and the car is even more solid,corners better as well............well better from how it was to start with,should of been fitted from the factory imo.......

I wasn't sure I'd feel the difference, but even on my rapid drive home, everything felt more rigid through the roundabouts. Only complaint is it squeaks! Gonna have to find whats rubbing an silence it!

Gonna be doing a minor service to save myself some cash..all of the above added up to about £70 and my local dealer wanted £139 for a minor service.

First time for everything..

Whats the pump thing? Brake bleeder?

Sucks the oil out the sump.

Through the dip stick

 

[BoostHard]

Isn't that cheating? Surely you get more of the crap out the sump by letting the hot oil drain out?

[LEE69]

yes you would

 

[KarlB1]

Yeah this was more of a test tbh. I did it with the pump to see how much it would remove then I removed the sump plug to see how much was left...and tbh the amount left in there wouldn't have even filled an egg cup.

 

[BoostHard]

Its not how much is left thats the problem id worry about the carbon deposits left behind

Really? I heard it can be as much as 10......
I won't sniff at 5 though.
As soon as I've got a bit more done. I.e. wheels and dropped i think i might splash oujt on one!

I wanna start a thread, but need to do a few more posts yet.......
