Gambit Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Yeah was quick. Had everything on but still seemed quick. Jumped easy and running at 13.9vlt with lights on. Got home and was fine off and on again.I had my pc running with the screen for nearly 45 minutes still started no problem. So think it will be the Battery showing signs it's not happy.

So think it will be the battery showing signs it's not happy.Yeah agree with that. I've had ign on longer before with all lights going and no issue. Gonna monitor it next few days and have it tested. 1
BoozyDave Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 been shopping for some goodies for tomorrow How do you rate it compared to the old 3 red bottles? I have used them (when I did a clay bar) and got great results Today I have spent 8 hours washing mine. Jet wash, shampoo, jet wash, microfibre dry, dodo juice paint cleaner, dodo juice pre wax cleanser, dodo juice protection wax (finger applied). very happy with the results, lovely, deep shine. It's got rid/hidden a lot of the light scratches and swirl marks too. I didn't have time to do they clay bar as well

Gambit Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Destroyed a chav type R today only a slight victory though it was a newer much slower version 08 haha. I wouldn't normally rise to it. But the light's had just gone green and the tit decided he's instantly going to try to overtake me.... I had other plans inspired by santa pod yesterday. [emoji1] 2

I didn't have time to do they clay bar as well Sorry dave would have seen you last night but the misses was ill, the 1st two bottles are harder to apply purely due to not being able to do the whole car then buff, more time consuming but the wax is easier to put on, get a deeper shine with the polish and wax compared to the red bottles
stants Posted October 13, 2015 Author Posted October 13, 2015 Managed to get hold of 2 more brand new oem foz rims to replace the scabby ones at the rear 2

Dogconker Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Well the saga continues with regards the problems with the dealership I'm at. Turns out they've confirmed that in last service, it was the wrong service, I was overcharged and they didn't even take the wheels off during the service. The whole service team "no longer work for the company" and I'm not alone and all the stuff is coming out of the woodwork now. My car is being the serviced by a new experienced team and all the other stuff is going to be addressed. Whether I'll keep using them I'm not sure, part of me thinks now they're sorting it out I might be better staying with them than going somewhere else where I have to start again. But they're going to have to do some serious PR with me to stay I think, especially if they're hoping for a purchase one day. Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
GeoffLeggy Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 So I thought all was well after leaving Japshow but have done over 150 miles now and had around 5 small puffs of blue. All at about 5-10 mph with light re apply of throttle. Car runs spot on and boosts solid otherwise. Anyway, ordered a new primary from Dubai to add to the growing list for the garage. 1
