  1. Thanks chaps . In the end I went for rain sport 3s . I have budget tyres on ATM and apart from the road noise they were OK for the sort of driving and mileage I cover. But I have a bit more money this time round so the uniroyals will be fine .
  2. I need four tyres for my mot .I had a quick look at the tyre thread but there are so many pages . This is me . I dont rag my car round corners , i dont drift , i dont drive in the rain unless i get caught in it . I do give it the beans on the straight every now and again . I average around 1k miles a year if that . What would you buy , Falkens , Toyo, Pirelli ?.
  3. Fingers crossed for a quick fix Sean .
  4. Strange , when you said if you wiggle the key and it starts that's always points to ignition switch mate .
  5. I have to admit , they are a bit on the rough side .
  6. Definitely sounds like the switch Sean . New manifold ooooh very nice .
  7. Nice one , I should have said the next thing to look at was the electrical side .
  8. Most of us would say in this situation, to check all the vacuum hoses . Rather than inspect them on the car , i would remove them to have a proper look . Check for splits / holes . Also while all the pipes are off give the ISV a good clean .
  9. I wouldn't have thought so no Westy. Just check all the vacuum hoses around it to make sure they are tight and no holes or splits .
  10. It controls the air and fuel between throttle and idle I think ? The gases can sometimes build up to such a rate it explodes and when it does its loud !
  11. I think that we have to expect them not to be perfect. We all know it's not the best or strongest design in the world .
  12. I fitted a different motor to mine a while back , I still pull a stupid face when it opens , that screwed up face , while thinking cmon don't stop working on me . I know what your saying Chuggs . If it works manually, it has to be electrical, crap in the runners or something that is making the motor struggle .
  13. Loads of info in the search about resetting the sunroof with the motor ,Gold , it's really easy.
  14. I'm the same when it comes to muscle cars . You can't beat the sound of Hemi in in a Charger . A while back I was filling up with fuel and a bloke was sat in the forecourt of the garage in a mustang , I had to go over and have a chat . He told me he paid 14k inc import duty for it ! , ok so it was only a small block and the chrome was a bit sketchy, but the paint was pretty good for original.
  15. Welcome along . Going on what Jim said about your username, did you choose it after the car or the fish ? lol .
  16. Nice work on the parcel shelf Sean and good to see you got to the bottom of the coolant light troubles . I think I have failed on my underside refurb , I didn't buy that Spring , bum , that's the one part I didn't buy .
  17. Me too , at least two months of heavy rain , four washes using a jet wash and it's as dry as a bone . Came home from work on Monday and I had bird crap on the window and down the door . I washed it with a hose and in it came !!. These membranes are begining to get on my nerves .
  18. I would have a set of these Dave .
