Looks like I've either not out it back on properly or at all, whatevers the case, it's missing and I need a replacement. Has anybody got one they would be willing to sell me?? Graham.

getting a horrible grinding noise the last couple of days from the drivers side, got it jacked up and the wheel off. if I take hold of the brake disk I can wobble it in all directions, appears to be play in the hub, is this normal or does it sound like I need to replace???? Graham.

This freezing weather has put an end to my radiator, anyone got one they don't need? cheers, Graham.

I was sure she was gonna fail this year too, handbrake iffy, exhaust baffles knackered and small leak. Fortunately I have found a really good tester, he stuck some putty on the exhaust (apparently the baffles aren't part of the test) and the handbrake only just passed, asked him if it was...

I seem to of developed a ticking noise, it goes up an down with revs but I can't hear it from outside with the bonnet open so don't think it's the engine. have to admit to not having a clue when it comes to mechanics, managed to do the oom12 tensioner last weekend due to this forum so hoping...

I'm trying to decide if it's better to replace the stock air filter with either a KKM or a K&N panel. does the K&N improve things much?, has anyone in the UK tried the KKM?? Graham.

Does anyone know of any way I can support a 19 foot microlight wing on the roof ? Most microlighters use a ladder attached to the roof rack however as our racks don't actually come anywhere close to the front of the vehicle an awfull lot would be stuck out the back. I need some way of...

OK, finally got round to get a couple of pics taken of the PC I've installed. got rid of the RDS7000, trimmed the dash a little with the trusty dremel and installed 7 inch touch screen, still need to find some black silicon sealent to fill round the edges though. Sumicom 2.4ghz P4...

I've serched the forums and suspect I need to clean the MAF however as I have NO mechanical experience I wanted to check with you guys first. Basically, starting first thing in the morning is always first turn of the key, idle goes up to around 2.5k and drops to 6k ish, idle alternates...
