Sorted

Good luck however I fear the worse. Alex Me too. It's not all bad, I have really enjoyed the 3k miles i got from it so far . Do you know the price for a rebuild by any chance Alex? Going to ask the guy tomorrow but would like a rough estimate. Okay, let's be proactive Rebuilds are not usually cost effective and a low mileage engine form a known doner vehicle is the way forward What year and engine model is your car?

Good luck however I fear the worse. Alex

PM received and prices sent over Alex

Had a listen to the vids and it sounds like it may be a rod about to let loose, however it could be a number of other things. Get a pro to have a listen and an informed diagnoses should be forthcoming within a few minutes, without stripping. Where are you based? Alex

As what Ekona has said, except best to purchase all the parts required and take them along. Most garages will gladly carry out your sevice with you supplying all the correct parts. The two benefits of this route is that you will know that the correct parts have been fitted to your car, and secondly, it will be cheaper. Win Win I carry in stock all the correct parts for your servicing needs and they are good to go same next/day. Drop me a PM if I can help you further. Alex

Washer bottles and all associated parts in stock and good to go same/next day if required. Hopefully it will just be a hose off or something similar. Alex

Tow eyes in stock, however I will require to know the diameter of the threaded part as there are 2 types. Also front tow eye covers in stock for facelift and prefacelift front bumpers. Alex.

I did but he didn't reply Come on Alex, get back to me Dave. No PM in my inbox mate. Send me over your VIN and I will price up for you Alex

If you think that the prices that your mate at the garage has quoted you are expensive then best not to look at my prices, however you get what you pay for as the saying goes. If you want cheap and cheerful then best just to buy from your mate, however if you want quality then have a look here. viewtopic.php?f=157&t=58518 Also other stuff including brake pad options can be found here. viewforum.php?f=157 Alex

It is not just the 1st and 2nd class stamps that are going up in price, it is basically across the board for most of there services including parcels, so brace yourselves lads. Alex

Best to talk to your local indy for that, but it is not a big job to replace the pumpkin. Alex

Hi and to the forum David Where about in Scotland are you from mate as we have many Scottish members? Alex

£250.00 mate

How much for a set of 25s for the rear sir? Hoy You me? or wizard? gonna have to fire up to yours again sometime alex, been far too long! been very busy over the new year and start of this year with family stuff Naw! not you Martin, plenty to go round for us humble Scottish traders I was referring to that scumbag Wizard, he spends half his life on the phone to me asking a thousand questions and he has the audacity to come to you for some 25s and call you Sir Alex

Don't worry I have diffs in stock as well Alex

Take the money and run

Sorry to hear of your loss mate. I have most parts in stock to fix this, however if you have little mechanical knowledge and are unable to rebuild yourself and you have to pay some one to do it for you then best bo bite the bullet, negotiate hard and start again. Not what you want to hear I know, but it is sound, informed advice. Alex

I only put 40 quid in so haven't filled the car right up. Its literally just when i fuel the car. As soon as i drive off there is no fuel leak? Sounds like a leak on the filler pipe then. Fuel leaks are dangerous especially around the tank area which is very close to the rear exhaust box. I would get this looked at immediately by the guy that fitted all this for you as it is his and your responsibility. I also would not run the car until this issue is sorted. Alex

Looking really good mate Bet you are well chuffed Alex

Rehan, best to run at top mark on the dip stick. If the oil light comes on, then I doubt if any oil will show on the dip stick.

Of course the oil pressure will keep dropping if you have no oil in the motor. If you run your car with low oil you will very soon require a new engine. Read my previous post and get your oil up to the MAX mark Alex

Wheel bearing perhaps: viewtopic.php?f=157&t=28625 viewtopic.php?f=157&t=29441 In stock and good to go same/next day Give me a shout once you get a proper diagnoses. Alex

When the car is cold add enough oil to get the level on the MAX mark and then do an oil comsumption test over the next few hundred miles. If the oil light comes on then your level will be dangerously low with perhaps only a litre or 2 left in the sump. The capacity is 5 litres and fully synth 5W30 is the preferred viscosity. You will only be able to get a true dipstick reading from cold, preferably after sitting 8 hours. The exhaust smoke emission concerns me. Good luck Alex
