Tomorrow Doing cambelt, water pump, remove sump and clean, new oil and filter and hopefully fitting turbo back 3" system plus badger5 tip etc. possibly a bit much for one day but we will see.
what have you done to your car today ?
- Thread starter seatcupramad23
- Start date
Make sure you have a ball ended allen key/ heavily undercut extension and socket as the 4 bolts partially obscured by the bell housing will be a nightmare
Ye I did only don about 1k in it sounds like little ends gon need to pull it apart to find out
Well, managed to get cambelt and water pump done, oil and filter plus removal of sump, clean out pickup etc which turned out to be remarkably clean. Also replaced exhaust with full turbo back Blue Flame system with sports cat. Exhaust has made a good difference, all in all a good days work
Got it back from kds detailing after the autoglass man scratched the bonnet! Very happy.

Nothing too exciting - replaced fuel filler cap, replaced dodgy esp button, fitted new LED courtesy lights in the front, fixed a rear courtesy light and replaced rear courtesy lights with LEDs.

Full suspension overhaul with powerflex rear bump stops and FK AKX dampers all round. Hell of a difference over the standard shocks & lowering springs. Has tightened everything up, feels like it handles better and sits nice on the drop will need to wait a little while for it to settle though! Off to get some new front tyres tonight then
Another thing checked off the list

Went to put on my 034 dog mount but found mine already had poly bushes. Changed them over and tried then both out. 034 street kit loads of torque movement. Old powerflex kit does not budge. Reverted back lol

Where did you get the replacement ESP button from? Mine doesn't click now (after messing with it) so I need to do that sorted. Incidentally, so I'm using this thread correctly, I picked mine up from the garage today with a fresh MOT, new rear door lock module and... ...oh yeah, a brand new turbo the wrong side of Christmas!!
