Ah man totally forgot about the horse :(, if it's of no use I'd love it back! Glad you've got to work on it straight away, I'll keep my eye on the progress, gutted to see it go but glad it's in good hands on the forum :)

I've used them a few times and currently got some fitted on the front. First time around they didn't last long and did feel a little soft however this could have been down the incorrect pressures. I've now got them on the front again and they feel a lot better than last time, for the money it's...

It was a diesel dyno day so it could well have still been setup for diesels? No idea how they work to be fair!

Any advise to loosen up the pistons?

As title I fitted brand new OEM discs and pads on the rear and today someone noticed a crack all the way down one of them! Main suggestion is a sticky piston which has caused the disc to heat up excessively? When I wound them back in it was a little tight but not bad. Any ideas?

I'll drop them an e-mail and see what they say. I'm really not bothered as it's all a bit of fun but would be nice to see it with slightly realistic figures lol

No idea, just gave them the car and waited for a print out....

Just thought I'd post up my rolling road results from today at Monster Tuning in Telford. No idea if the curves on the graph are good so over to the tech guys on here ;)

I did think that but good to get another opinion! I'll grab something tomorrow morning to tie me over.

I'm currently low on oil and require a quick top up for a drive this weekend. Usually I use Elf however I don't think I'll get any delivered before the bank holiday, am I ok to use another brand? I'm due an oil change soon so it's fairly short term.

Apply the film using a hair dryer, the more heat you get into the film the easier it is to mould around the edges.

£20 surcharge per wheel for black/anthracite but a bargain if you want silver :)

I'd seriously wait for Cooksports unless you get hold of some Sportlines very cheap. By the time they come back in stock you'll have saved enough for them ;). Fitting them is also an easy task if you have a socket set and some jacks, took me 2 hours on my own in the rain!

I've just changed from Sportlines to Cooksports and the later seem to be a lot better. Main differences are slightly lowered ride height and a little firmer. They don't seem crashy at all on the road considering it's a lowering spring however I did also fit new OEM shocks at the same time.

Did you have a keyfob immobiliser fitted? When we had a MK1 MX5 the garage lost the fob and they did a similar job....

I use this type and I've never had any problems - http://www.opieoils.co.uk/pv-98046-cup-oil-filter-wrench-66mm-6-flutes-single.aspx?utm_source=ProductSearch&utm_medium=GoogleBase&utm_campaign=GoogleBase_ProductsFeed&utm_content=98046&gclid=CIuKqInCvLsCFQEXwwodKVAAPQ

Yes but it needs a new battery :(. I'll check the fuse this evening and then get the multimeter in play if it's still not fixed.

Everything is OK in terms of plugs/corrosion etc from what I can see. I also tried a couple of different bulbs and had no joy. I'm hoping it's just the fuse that's gone. Thanks all for the help so far.

I imagined they'd work off the same fuse as the normal lights?

Over the summer I removed my fog lights and arch liners for a track day. Since then I was lazy and never put them back until this weekend. Everything went back in ok however now they don't work? Could water have got into the plugs and caused damage? If so what's the best fix?

Is it worth going for the Macbook Pro with Retina display or spec up a standard Macbook Pro? I'll be keeping it for a long time and using it for light photo/video editing. I've also never owned one before so it'll be a big change!

Could it not have been the cambelt that's slipped causing the engine to eat itself?

Yeah, both. Not sure what the Simota is worth so it could be a good deal?

He wants £650 for the seats and Simota if anyone was interested. Bit too much for me tho....

Would need to be low to pull off the Grid's but they do look good on Clio's.

Cooksports are due in stock in about a week's time, I called them last week to check.

It's failed numerous times now so I've taken the car away and found another local garage that can help out. I'm still interested to find out what causing the failure. Results below -

I know I won't get it perfect but a little better would be nice. I'll report back with some results at the weekend of the weathers good.

Not sure I trust myself with a rotary polisher! It does seem like there's just not enough paint on it...
