I looked at them and still want one but the turbo lag on the derv is apparently horrendous Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

You sure you don't want the video? Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

We did mine with a Devilbiss gun and I think it had a standard tip on it It is thick stuff though. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Merc E500. Bought blind. Gearbox knackered. Flogged 6 weeks later 2 grand lighter Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Lol.....that's was a charity car wash my mate hosted a few months back. There's a fairly horrific video knocking about somewhere as well. Note I have a sponge *shudders* Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Ive done mine. Fairly durable and I should imagine even more so with a glossifier on it. Fairly easy to wash but very hard to protect because it's rubber....I've tried rubber dressings which are OK but even specialist matte waxes done like it Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

^ and yes.....yes it will Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

I think he meant the unprotected part of the vehicle. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Eeek that's a right nasty one. Has it gone right through or just deeply scratched it? Tell you what it would take some doing to rip it right through.....I struggle to cut leather with a fresh Stanley blade at times. Honestly I could probably do 'something' with it but I'm not convinced it would totally hide it especially with the perforation in the leather Si at Mondo will probably be able to advise.

I'm interested if you can pm me a number please Not got a number buy Google APM Customs Sandycroft. Then go and see you bank manager! They are the best around though Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

^ we should have you mounted and stuffed if you eventually got a decent car out of them. Poor customer service seems to be the least price you can pay. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

You'll see loads round here mate. Not many forum members though. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Excellent work there Col! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

And CalZed did Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

I'll be honest mate half the time you're better sticking with what you know. 350 forum will probably turn decent advice out. Pug forum will probably turn up 900 threads with no resolution That first code is a glow plug preheater failing which can apparently cause issues with DPF regeneration.

Quick research suggests there is a fuel pressure regulator and a fuel metering value thst are also cleanable and possible culprits Loads have solved it with fuel filters though Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Btw in think your suggestion of fuel filter is deffo spot on as best place to start if it is a fuel issue. Also give the oil a sniff and make sure it doesn't smell of fuel. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

DPF and egr could potentially be the root cause of the whole issue. Bearing in mind that both systems are critical to the correct fuelling of the system. not sure of this engine has it but there's a priming bulb on some pug dervs on the way to the fuel rail. They sometimes get minor airleak that causes air to get in and causes a misfire. Also I'm guessing a 10 penny OBD scanner was used (spark plug code on a derv sounds like a generic cheapie machine). Wouldn't go wrong with a decent scan and a look at the live data to see what's doing what. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Yes mate. £480 I think and it's fecking massive. I'd say it's a 4k snap on sized box. Proper sturdy and powder coated as well Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

I'm afraid I'm also going for 'massive toolbox' Way more storage than I need. I've got a draw just for gloves! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Agree with Marz to be honest. I've got a 1300 quid X300 and it's very solid but a 3k XK8.......that would make me very nervous. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

You need a plastic filter and as said lots of sanding. It can be a bit of a swine of a job i'll be honest. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Not for me Seen worse. Go for it! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Ready for use lacquer (rattle can) should dry like buggery. What type of primer did you use? Really you need to use plastic primer first. Also using acrylic primers with some paints will cause reactions Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

The significant drawback to dyeing them is that the thread colour on the topstitching will also end up red. And it ain't dye! Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
