1st off apologies I dont have any photos at present so will just try to explain. Started to get a knocking sound from the rear of the car on speed bumps etc. Now checked and it seems the rear exhaust mount has snapped. I've only had a quick look so not been able to get properly under the car...

Have been but will try again this evening. It may just be excellent French engineering! --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.801379,-2.095377

Washers are working fine, no leaks either. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.801449,-2.095810

Yes the lights are on --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.621422,-2.113024

Now not sure if this is linked but the washer jets on the lights aren't working anymore, I've re-activated the auto lights but the washers are no longer working, any ideas?

Doh!!!! Will have a looksee now

Just had the bulbs changed on the 172 and now they don't automatically turn on. Work fine by manually turning them on. I'll be speaking with the garage tomorrow but just thinking could it be something they haven't attached when they change the bulb?? Any ideas?

OK cheers, some people seem to say you can do this without taking the bumper off. Is it just remove the cap at the back of the lights and remove the bulb or best to get the front bumper off?

Just recently the drivers side xenon has changed colour (to a blue instead of the white before) and started flickering on start up, sometimes going off. If I switch the lights to side lights then back to dipped or auto it will usually flicker and then stay on. I'm not sure if its the bulb...

Its still on there and dont look toooooo bad in daylight but think the resin and smoothing out option will be the way to go. Any ideas on wheres best to get resin from? THis is not something I've had to do in the past as you can tell.

Just scraped my carbon fibre splitter on something trying to park at my dads and its fooked a small part. Pulled a small section up and now need to figure out the best way to repair it. Any ideas peeps??

Had the rad changed on my 172 last week and now the idle has got a bit pete tong. When cold it can rev at 2000rpm and then drops to settle at 1100rpm. Even when the engine has warmed up it will sometimes bounce between the 2 levels. Other than that the car is running fine and starting OK.

Fred if you can get one today I can pick it up and pay after work tonight. What would be the damage? Ta.

Pm sent to the good man

Doug, what condition is it in as I can maybe pick up tonight from Fred if he's about this evening
