Hi! Someone the other week must have scraped into the back of me in a car park :( I was walking to my car and spotted this: Is it worth getting a respray or should I get a touch up pen? It has gone through the top coat and it is white underneath. How much roughly would it cost? ​

Hello! I have a leak (well not sure if it is). Below where the airbox would be on a 182, I have what looks like oil stains which have been there a while, I dont think they are fresh. I was just wondering if anyone knew where it could be coming from or if there is normally oil there? Thanks...

Hi! As the weather is getting better I have been thinking of giving my 182 a nice all over clean. It hasn't had a big clean for ages. This is the method I was thinking of doing but I'm not sure it's the right way of going about it, 1) Wash (2 bucket method) 2) Polish (srp) 3) Wax (AG EGP)...

I was rooting around in my garage the other day and I found an unopened 5l bottle of valvoline 80w90 gearbox oil. I think my mate might have given it to me when he sold his corsa. I had a search on here for what type of oil you use in a 182 and the general consensus is to use 75w90. Is there...
