March 6, 201510 yr Done my first oil & filter change today, I've done 4,800 miles since I got it. The sump plug was well stuck!! Think I'd better get a new one next time.
March 6, 201510 yr Haha sounds like you've had an eventful day :) Sump should be ok now it's loose but doesn't hurt to get another one :)
March 7, 201510 yr New exhaust fitted. Well chuffed. Just the centre and rear on for now before the decat(before remap) It's not too loud but a much deeper rumble and you can hear the burble now. So happy with it! No wonder she was so quiet. Check out the size of the rear box.
March 7, 201510 yr Anyone fancy this old girl? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-justy-one-former-keeper-Fsh-needs-loving-home-Cars-bargain-/161618780212?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item25a13ae034 Someone could get a nice bargain there.
March 7, 201510 yr Just spent the day washing claying, poor boys black holing, wire wool and rain x windows.......and tomorrow I is going to give her two (2) coats of black wax. :D Before that I had a trip up the motorway and roasted a Clio Sport off the roundabout and up the on-ramp, I may have it on camera. How old am I again? ;)
March 7, 201510 yr Author Thought I'd get cracking with sorting out my new alarm fob, armed with my newly aquired bitwriter i set about taking the centre console apart to work out where it plugs into the alarms brain After I'd got this far I found out there was already the communications interface attached left by alarm installer, chased it back to it's hidden location. Put the centre console back together. Plugged in and programmed fob. Programming took all of 5 mins and an official dealer wanted 75 notes robbing gits !
March 7, 201510 yr Thought I'll treat the old scooby to some nice bits with some 10w40 castrol magnetic with a bit of slick 50 oil seal replenishing additive runs sweet as a nut
March 7, 201510 yr Changed from my winter tyres to fresh summers - Hankook Ventus Prime2,215/55 17V. Hoping for some fuel benefit as these tyres are low rollingresistance and should be good in the wet.
March 8, 201510 yr Author Never understood the two bucket method, do you alternate between bucket while sponge dipping ?
March 8, 201510 yr Dip sponge in soapy bucket, wash car, then rinse of crap off the sponge in bucket of clean water before dipping back in soapy bucket. Idea is all the crap off the car goes in the bucket of water and not into your soapy bucket. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
March 8, 201510 yr Our neighbours washed their Mazda 6 with one bucket, but that was the least of their worries, they let their 3 year old help and he kept dropping the sponge in the floor whilst washing the car aaaaaaarrrrggghh! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
March 8, 201510 yr You're all !Removed! up if you're using a sponge and not a microfibre cloth. May as well stick to one bucket, sponges are the worst thing to wash the car with.
March 8, 201510 yr Author Even if it's a new sponge every time ? And never actually touches the bucket ? My paintwork 's not the best anyway. Isn't the idea of shop to hold dirt particles in suspension in the Water,
March 8, 201510 yr You're all !Removed! up if you're using a sponge and not a microfibre cloth. May as well stick to one bucket, sponges are the worst thing to wash the car with. Microfibres cloth, blasphemy [emoji38] Lambs wool mitt is the proper way to go Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
March 8, 201510 yr Yeah it did ! My new gun was a shock power wise compared to the rattle can ones Will do a thread on it later

Do let me know how you find these in a few months time....one of about half a dozen options I'm looking at when it comes to replacing mine towards the back end of this year [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
