Cheers guys, i feel a bit better now. I usually end up helping them out as you say chris. I once spent an hour sat 10 feet in the air in my car on the lift as they were trying to diagnose a brake problem on one of my old bmw's. ...and yes i have non brembos (doesnt work out any cheaper though - you cant get hold of stock disks for it, so im having slotted dba's on the front @ £300 for the pair!)

Hey, I need to get my brake fluid changed within the next week, and for all simple work i take it to my local where my mate does work as a foreigner (and i dont mean he blacks himself up). He replaced my rear disks and pads a few weeks ago, and will be doing my front discs and pads early next week. However, i've got braided lines to go on, and want a full fluid change... should i trust them to do it at the same time as replacing the disks (if i give them the order of the calipers to bleed), or should i leave this part to a more technical garage - which will no doubt charge me double what my mate charges, and it'll cost more as they're doing it from scratch anyway. I think basically what im asking is - can anything get f*cked up if you do the brake fluid change incorrectly, or can problems be sorted with just a bit more time?

Ha ha Cheers fella sorry its my new favourite toy

Again?

Yeh tenner a corner usually, but that 11.50 might include disposal of old tyres.

Cant find a definitive answer on here mate but found a few posts mentioning it e.g. viewtopic.php?f=32&t=6720&hilit=clocks+mileage just do an advanced search for clocks AND mileage.

I think there were only 2 zeds in the film... one in the background of the workshop where vin beats a name out of the mechanic who uses nitro meth, and one as a tiny picture when paul walker can select which car to take from the impound.

Oh my god are you kidding? I was stuck behind one of these on Sunday in that exact colour! It was an absolute minter, not a mark on it, and it had a note in the window saying 'Please pass, running in'...!

I think its a good idea in theory you selling these, but there are 2 potential problems i think... 1. Clocks - isnt the mileage stored on the clocks? So if i sent you my clocks they'd say 60k on them no matter who's car you put them on? 2. Whats the likelihood of you screwing one up? I used to 'chip' people's playstations at school for £15 a pop - it was only soldering 7 wires onto the board, but i screwed one up and wrecked it, and then had to buy the guy a new playstation! That could get expensive doing that with clocks!! That said, i hope you do start offering the service though as they look great!

Its not just the occupation setting that value mate. Its the postcode lottery and your age mostly. I paid more than your quote when i was under 25.

Jeez darren you've put on wait since you've been laid up!

Mate, i lost my voice watching on my own from home! Cant imagine how good it was there.

Whats your point? The bug clubs deserve the bonus of extra time!

What a game..!!!!! Unbelievable!!!

Heh heh, zed deliveries..! Do you get the food there before its even cooked?!

Thats clicky rear axles then guys... definitely not the creaky drop links. ...I should know, my car does both

You didnt win any more pressure washers this year then Martin?

Think thats an each price mate. The clicking rear axle sounds like you're driving over broken glass or gravel when driving at very low speed... this problem is mostly when reversing at low speed, often going up a slight hill or down (i.e. not flat), and while it does click, its a lot more of a creaking sound this.

... thats deserves a donation i think!

I bought this on here about a year ago, but never got round to fitting it. It had previously been fitted to another member's car. £15 delivered.

Hey all... I'll stick this on eBay next week, but i might as well offer it here first... Samsung tocco mobile phone, 13months old. 6.5 out of 10 condition. Includes box and charger. There are the usual scratches and marks, but nothing major. The only problem with it is that the hold button no longer works. £45 delivered.

Well, im bored! The missus has gone out for her mate's birthday (who is a stripper btw ), and im sat at home watching iron man on Sky movies. I got myself a Huuuge 16 inch pizza, and have had almost a full bottle of coke I've just spent the last hour working out why i've only got 14quid to last me till payday, and have gone through all my online banking... In the last 3 and a half weeks i've spent £750 on just stuff! new iPhone, drifting, my arcade machine, united tickets, girl friends birthday present... I've barely got anything to show for it. I've just done a budget for next month too as thats going to be even worse but much less fun. I've gotta tax my car, get new insurance, MOT, and upgrade my brakes (got to buy DBA front disks @ £300 as i cant get hold of anything cheaper, but already bought pads and braided lines, and did the rears last month). Also drifting again next saturday, and have to pay my mate £75 for a UFC ticket. double So im now taking paypal donations at marzman@ntlworld.com
