  12. Mythbusters did this on there last show a away to get round a flat tire and it actually worked very well
  13. when i read your first post i was just waiting for the condemnation you cant use the "D" word on this site I love drifting and try to go to drift day's as much as I can but there's just certain things u don't advertise on a free public forum like anything to do with public roads. we learned buy using my mates dads industrial units he closed the gates and let us play in a controlled Environment Where no public where at risk . If your wanting to learn to drift why not ask a farmer with a bit spare land if you could use it for a small fee or go to a track day. cause one day drifting on the roads will end badly and unfortunately normally people end up taking out other people or worse kids. Just cause Tokyo drift looks good dosent mean you can do it
  14. Not the best thing to advertise on a open forum mate Best thing to do is go to a few local bodyshop and get prices but if your going to drift again you maze well put a tie rap on it , as it's just going to happen over an over again
  15. In my opinion it depend on what the degree is in and the experience the person holds , for example when I went for my job as a engineer there was me ( the numpty with a collage nvq but experience and time on the job ) And two lads fresh out of uni with a engineering degree's with no experience or ideas of how to do things real world as they had been confined to a class room for 3-4 year of there life. No doubt they would of kicked my arse in the paper work department but on the tools experience is everything
  16. I am a maintenance engineer at the dwp site and totally agree with the government bringing the public sector in line with the rest of us they have had it to good for to long, when they get down to my level of pension maybe then al have sympathy for them but till then **** em , they never backed the average Joe when we fighted so why should we give a **** about them . Did you no when dwp staff retire they get 3/4 of there final salary which is a minimum of 20k and could retire at 50 they have crazy pensions. so why should they get these benefit ??? why can't they pay the same as us ?? why should they be able to retire earlyer than the rest of us ??? This hole thing pisses me off cause they think there hard done by because finally there little bubble has burst . Welcome to the real world
  17. so by the look of that i need it sorted as its not commin for this to happen nut thickining up the oil my help for now
  18. ok had the tech on the phone again today they have finished there "free" work which was - 1) clean and check suction pipe and plenum. 2) check cam covers and oil seal's around the plugs. 3) remove plugs and visually check cylinder (found that the right back had oil in them) 4) flushed oil system and renewed oil and oil filter. he thinks it's either the oil stem seals or my piston rings but he is unsure. i asked him to quote me a price to check these and replace if necessary, which he replyed about 3 - 4k so i declind and have decided to pic the car up tomorro and have ago at stripping it down my self I have been told to put slick 50 in the oil and it would take up the leak but i feel that this is not doing it properly and masking the problem . nothing but bad luck with this car this year
  19. Sorry but how is a Porsche Cayenne (S or Turbo models),Range Rover Sport Supercharged, X5 V8 practical ?? Do you live in the country ?
  20. Thank you everyone for the advice and your time It is really appreciated I just hope I can get my baby back on the road (where she belong's) and running properly so I can enjoy some summer sun before she gets put away for the winter
  21. Well not exactly weekly but every two weeks I defiantly check everything and haven't notice anything untoward . I will try that once they have used there free time they have promise investigating and cleaning
  22. Right just getting out of having a meeting with Nissan , the tec said the car had two faults 1) starting issue - which was found to be a corroded earth wire under the washer bottle to the engine Which has now been fixed for free . 2) burning oil , the car is burning oil "crazy amounts" was over the top but none the less it looks like it is so it has to be done, it's abit strange as it only seems to smoke when idling but clears up when it is Rev'd They are adment they have not caused it but have agreed to do a few hour's work for free so can't complain really . They're going to start with suction pipe on plenum then work through cam covers etc I Will update again once I find out a cause Yip Mileage was 47085 when I went today it was 47087 they said they test drove it . And tank was 3/4 full when I went today it was still 3/4 full
