Thanks for lettin me have a nose round your car earlier, just need to sort the belt out now, really not looking forward to doing that. Also gonna get the suspension off and give it a clean up as i know the helper springs have sized compressed.

Done about 70% of the greddy setup now, need to get the coil tray out and try to put it in there. Solenoid is mounted hidden and out of the way nicely, need to wire it in and feed a vac line from the manifold into the cabin and take it out for a spin. :D

Your overfuelling 7% basically, what was the other figure ryan?

You'll have two %'s on 032.

decat + downpipe fitted... little bit of knocking but gonna have it all fixed during the week as it's catching in a few bits but only on idle. when revving/moving it sounds normal! car feels much quicker and i love the turbo sound now!!

now u just have to buy a new car rhys. My car is low still. Feels nice but that camber and tracking has to be done. Feels like ur ride. Not too hard and not too soft. However i only had my socket set in the car with myki's decks and it was rattling on tick over. Exhaust on chassis and only when on a slight angle. Plus i need 5mm spacers at the front as well. But might be sorted when camber is done. lol

yer tell me about it! mate- there's no clip on the end of the master cylinder thing so i think that's why it's just moving back and for. i do need to get this clip then bleed it properly and then i think it'll be sorted! :)

where would it be then. Would make sense because it seems a bit weird for that ball to just be in an open space like that

goes right on the end of the ball joint where we welded the thing back together. makes sense because at the moment all there is is just the ball on the welded plate. and it makes a clicking sound. i've looked around for the plastic bit but can't find it. it's 60p from the dealers so gonna grab one on tuesday (bloody bank holiday). just added you on msn btw

if you take the second left instead of first (from KC's house direction), the bumps are much better :)

ETKA tells me the prices! and they're quite accurate too- checked loads of things and they've been the same at SEAT dealers. whats the part number of the temp sensor? we'll get your laptop fixed tomorow and get your car scanned for codes
