tom_gr7 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Had a right panic this afternoon. Tried to start to start the car n it wouldnt turn over... tried it again n it managed to start ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th4neuk Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Well bit of naff news. One of the rear tyres was loosing a bit of pressure so took it in to have it checked. Turns out the rim is split and buckled :-( remember catching a bit of a pot hole a while back but not thought anything of it. Back on the original rims now as I'll have to see if I can pick up another wheel. Apart from that all is well (touch wood).

Gaulson Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Excuse the dirty wheel, any idea what the oil substance could be on the tyre? Could be the reason I'm sliding about a bit on corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaulson Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Got it being looked at tomorrow night, also having drop links and rear strut brace fitted. Its looking more like strut leaking onto my wheel. Will have a check of the brake fluid level before I leave for work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I have cloth seats mate, :( I've been quoted 200 for a seat of leathers and doors cards from a beaker. I'm considering it, however, I'm not sure if I really need leather seats or not lol. And the missus is out of work atm, so I can't really justify spending 200 on something I dont really need lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
