Chris Knott Insurance - Competitive quotes for forum members

what have you done to your car today ?

Phoned the scrappy to organise collection then cancelled it again as my brother had a look at why the clutch is stuck to the floor and found the part numbers for the bits I need as it's 2 plastic clips

He's going to try and fix it for me then I'l be selling it anyway :(

I know it's a Seat forum but the build quality seems to be s**te

Fitted 3" downpipe and decat to 2.75 catback. Whoever said chop a spanner is a life saver.Bolts were a doddle with that. can't say the downpipe was easy to get out though!

Any bits for sale? What model you running?
 
Actully drove it tonight, got followed by the Police, made me feel young again! Temp gauge seems to be a bit cold now, might need a thermostat.
 
Took it for its first car wash then admired it for a little while before uploading pictures of it to facebook :p

It's only standard mate AUQ lump no mods, It'll end up on eBay in a week or so hopefully if we can get the clutch sorted, We thought it was clutch itself gone but it maybe the 2 plastic clips which hold the pedal to the rod which connects to the master cylinder so may not be scrapped yet

Either way I'm still sick of it lol

Oh wow. I'd make them pay for the respray!

It's alright i know the guy that runs the place as well as the people that work there. They take care of me and my car. I'll stop using them once i've saved enough money to buy my own cleaning products :p
 
Broke my dipstick tube trying to do my N249 delete mod. Luckily seems to be a common part and got a cheap one from ECP
 
Refitted rims after a fresh refurb and a coat of Gtechniq C5.

Before:



After:

 
Removed N249, no lights! :) Replaced dipstick tube (easy if you take care, you can tell they don't last forever) broke my SAI front tube so now looking just to delete the SAI anyway.

Too scared to change Thermostat as may be the dash gauge and the thermostat housing looks weak and I'd rather not disturb unless there is a housing local to me.
