what have you done to your car today ?

I bounced up a curb today in my car lol

A **** in a nice polished red Honda Civic type R decided to cut me off so I bounced up the curb while my mirror smacked into his door then his mirror, I slowed down but he kept driving don't think he knows he has a ****ed door now, stupid arse.

Treated the turbo/engine with a course of Revive

Cam belt and water pump change

Got the car up on stands to allow the removal of f**ked oil sump, once removed I felt better as there was no metallic particles found. Gave it a clean and refitted it with a couple of bolts and now just need to order a new sump/plug/oil and give a test run to prove the turbo is ok.

New tyres and geometry today, lower arm bushes and ball joints last weekend

Don't think the powerflex bushes lasted very well

 

[shanky77]

Got my car back from having lower wishbone bushes replaced, wheels refurbished and also did the n249 bypass - been a very good day - now to get my post count up to post some pics

New charge pipe fitted, goodbye baffles! Feels a bit quicker tbh but its probably all in my head! Still happy

Does Revive or similar products actually clean well? Is it worthwhile in a car with 100k on the clock which has never received this treatment? Before or after an oil change?

there are pics on the very last page of the thread, in more or less the same order.

Well today I've sealed the carrier door seals as I has a soaking drivers carpet, and if fecked my drivers crash sensor so just changed that also, hear what my carpet looked like underneath





Fingers crossed that's the issue sorted.

My LCR passed its MOT but will need 3 tires soon so more expense on top of needing a new clutch.

I have two tyres and a service due soon, them feels

At least the MOT is out of the way

Still not sure what to do in terms of speaker upgrades. The guides on here are sometimes a bit vague but in terms of speakers and the tweeters etc they're confusing as hell!

Anyone able to give me some pointers?? unless I can find a cheap one, I don't fancy having a sub in the boot. I just want better speakers that actually work. TIA

Today I polished bird poo off my passenger window.

The standard speakers in my leon are actually really good

They are decent but they crackle a lot. the tweeters at the top of the doors also crackle now.

I just spent 3 hour cleaning my car, I'm knackered.

I sprayed my brembos ready for rebuilding then cleaned all the disks up

I replaced a crankshaft sensor and can drive the car again after 2 weeks!

Tried to see how long I could lose a full tank of fuel

 

[Bigjohn84]

Just finished doing another oil and filter change, only done 2000 miles since the last one, also had a small leak from my power steering so fixed that also.

 

[Bigjohn84]

Well I took some really nice pictures of my car today as the weather was fantastic, I've noticed a massive difference since putting good oil in my car, better performance and better MPG,.
