I love buying car stuff, just hate paying for it.

I also suffer from this disability :)

Think everyone loves buying car stuff but hates paying for it ;) .

 

I now know how to get that turbo flutter/chatter, you just remove your dump valve and blank it off. It's apparently safe on the TD series of turbos but the VF series don't like it at all. Be nice to blank it off and go for a drive to see if it sounds good or not :P

Just out of curiosity, would you happen to know why my turbo diesel does it, it's standard? I'm assuming it's not got a dump valve and that's why? Not to clued up on turbos

I do try sometimes :lol:

 

Also, does anyone have any idea why my main beam doesn't work... but does? What I mean by this is I can switch main beam on, the light on the dash comes on, the relay clicks and here's the weird part... behind the casing of the main beam a light comes one BUT the bulb is still in the holder? There isn't anything that should light up behind there!! :huh:

It's normally the turbo spooling backward with rally cars so not sure why yours does it :( 

 

And my cars having the Hub finally replaced today. Was going to do it myself until I looked at how you do it and didn't have a socket big enough or the forked bars :)

Oh well, it's got 5 years warranty so if it breaks it's not my problem, will probably have changed the car by then as need it for my work.

Sounds nice though and it makes people look, I think they're surprised when they see it. I think they're expecting something a bit sportier [emoji2]
