Yes. Its horrible when used in the snow as it thinks your slipping alot and cuts power. Winter tyres and you would be ok although I'd still turn it off.

Can't help you mate but hopefully someone else can help you. You seem like a proper knowledgeable guy

That is cool!

I have a 330d (same engine) my cousin has had 2 530d's and they sound ok for a diesel but my mates 1.3 p reg corolla sounds better than both.

Diesels as said can be economical but not as much as people think. It's assumed. E.g. The BMW 530d isn't a good ok fuel as everyone thinks but it's quite fast for a diesel and doesn't feel like diesels of old. Also people never do their sums they have to add extra cost of car extra cost of fuel, extra cost of maintenance and more parts to go wrong. Turbos, injectors etc etc arent cheap and if diesels dont get hot urs not good for the engine your mpg isnt great.I've seen people sell good cars to buy new diesels thinking they are saving money because the tank lasts 50% longer but they spent 5-10k more on a new car.

So are all the thread the OP makes ;lol:

You dont buy a Z for the mpg :1: :1: Nah I keed. I can remember I was waiting for the convoy truck to come back so I switched the engine and dipped lights off. The guy behind was going mental as he thought I had broken down . Don't see the point in wasting fuel for 10mins when there is no where to go.

You are far more patient than I would have been You are far more patient than I would have been +1. Make sure you dont go over the claim date.

Looks cool, If you like it go for it. Its your car.

You sir, are a LIAR! :wink: Royal fail can suck it. Good access to depots? Are you smoking crack or only talking about the 1 you use? Friendly and never late yeah right. How about normally late and even letters come ripped and damaged sometimes. How the hell do they manage that? The postman at work is good but at home always delivers the wrong letters to everyone in my street even though all houses are clearly numbered.

Only if its coming from your card rather than your bank or paypal balance.

I used to do that years ago. Sat nav is just where you need it.

Horses for courses

Incorrect, there is no fee for a gift payment. If you get it from bank or balance but I'm sure there can be if your getting it from the card. £7 that it costs you is your security. Don't pay that £7 and it doesn't turn up all your money is gone. If you know the guy fine but you never know.

Some crazy mpg at 50mph

If you sit or work on one the engineering is brilliant and fit and finish is awesome too. Most people don't hate Porsches they hate people who drive them, jealousy, because it's faster than their car and generally it's a sign of success so hated on for no real reason. It's like a counter culture.

I'm sure some say its quite restrictive and some say it kinda gave their exhaust more tone. I got mine fitted at the same time as the rest of my exhaust so I couldnt tell. One thing is though if you get a Japspeed one the flexis will rip and leak

Wouldnt you jack the front up? Don't ask me, I've not done it,as my mechanic uses a pressure filling system. just remember from reading on here. Lol I'm pretty sure you jack up the front as the higher it is the easier the air escapes. That's why a 2ltr coke bottle with the bottom chopped off can work well because it's the highest point.

Wouldnt you jack the front up?

:lol : awesome p
