I know they aren't exactly engine bits, but had to have em 🙈

As long as it's got a 2 tonne caravan attached..... looow n sloooow...

Tbh, if you read enough, all makes of coilover are rubbish unless you pay 2 grand, it's the same ole thing, people say bc are great, people say they are rubbish, same with tein, and tbh, same with toyo tyres, induction kits, blow off valves etc etc etc..... @Tidgy, pedders emailed me, they've just finished the wagon specific kit, just not up on their site yet

I'm a chicken wire and chewing gum type of tight ar-se, but I would not use a second hand fuel pump unless from a mate with useage known, if it runs your car lean on boost your in big trouble just my personal opinion 👍

Ok, so now at bout 350 miles, tyres started to settle down from about 250 miles, much less movement and more grip the more I drove it, I presume there is more to come, but as they are now, they are as grippy as hell, noticeably better than the potenza and michelins they replaced and a pretty decent drive, have purchased a set of bc br coilovers, so will get them fitted and a full geo set up, already got the 24r 22f arb's fitted and updated droplinks

is it the C frame or the actual subframe that mounts the steering rack

I hope so 🙈

Just need to listen to see if it's front or back

it's a driver side bearing then, wheel bearing are more noisy when you load them up in a sweeping bend/corner, quieten right down when you unload them in a corner

Thanks mate 👍

😝

Anyway, cmon, it's all been said before so let's knock it on the head eh 👍

Brand new maf, o2 sensor, plugs, throttle body, air filter etc etc etc BEFORE mapping by duncan car was mapped at 69k by previous owner, generic flash map, I presume a maf not at its best at that mileage, i had it mapped at about 100k roughly with all the new bits on Car has been running properly since the intake was fitted

Thought I better clear this one up, the problem all along turned out to be maf scaling, disconnecting the avcs just masked the fuelling issues and made it look like an avcs problem, I presume my car was either mapped for an intake at some point and then put back to standard before I bought it, or because it was fist mapped at 69k (roughly) the maf may have been well past its best, and as I had fitted a brand new maf it had thrown it all out, I'm not going to get into any more mud slinging, suffice to say, my car now has a good make inner wing cold air intake fitted, holds boost correctly, runs like a champ, fuel trims are now where they should be, does not pull timing and has not gone into limp mode since this was fitted, probably a couple of months ago now, so my problem was down to a poor map

Got one off matty at me developments in the end 👍

Oooh loves a wagon me !!

Any ideas where to get my car set up, portsmouth or surrounding areas 👍

Any ideas where to get to the geo done down portsmouth area

Will give it another good check bush wise mate, check all the ar-se end bushes vigorously, I think geo is the next thing, just did a camber check 3 times just to be sure

Anyone local that could possibly meet up and swap my wheels and tyres onto their car and theirs onto mine to see what's going on with these tyres ?? Preferably a new age ? Thanks in advance if you can

You do seem to have a few selling "problems".....

So been lookin at a pedders easy fit kit, do they they do a kit for my wagon, it seems that fitting v groove directional tyres will highlight any suspension or geometry problems you have going on, and my car was feeling randomly flaky before I changed the tyres on a side note, the wife did say to me last night, why is everything you do a rigmarole, but she pronounced it ... marigamarole lol

Here we go again...............🙈
