does it smell like fuel from the petrol station??? (ei - unburnt petrol??)

if it doesnt then i think your car is running lean (not enoughfuel in the air flow mix) and its possible that your lambda sensor/temp sensor is naff

munky everyone is waiting on you to find out so we can all get a discount LOL

munky, its not for my car....i was trying to get some gen for my mate and his lovely volvo 740 :D he cant find any wheels that fot, so he though "why dont we get some made" :rofl: i dont wanna mod my golf any more TBH...its fun and all and i love the car but i dont like it anymore if you know what i...

munky, thats the same company i found :cool: awesome work on the cars :D HairyScreech, i belive that when the wheels are made they are balanced by spinning them at high RPM to make sure they are safe, not buckled/straight and the important part that they dont fall to bits when they are being used on...

HairyScreech wrote:didnt think banded wheels were illegal,

well the problem is when people started doing this in the 80's or something, the people didnt weld the wheels properly so they fell apart :doh: but as i said above there isnt really a problem if they are done properly

wheels which are cut open and have a band of steel elded in so you can make them any width you want. although technically they are illegal, i'm not sure how you would spot that they were banded wheels unless you took them apart (if theyre dont properly) i assume the metal being put in is as strong ...

hi guys, i wanted to know where i can get banded wheels from

i know its illegal blah blah :p

is there any place you guys can recomend/know about???

mucho's thanko's

signes of head gasket failuer will be having mayo like substance in your oil (remove oil cap and see there) and/or having oil mixed with your water (check were you top your water up) not necessarily - depends on what part of the gasket has failed. If it's just gone through a fire ring into the wate...

"creeking" noise could be a spring :/

if ou don't declare a turbo or other engine mods (if you have them) you could be in for a roasting later. isnt it any mods you make that you make to the car that alters it from how it came from factory? :/ Well yes its ANY mod but OP originally asked in relation to turbo and engine mods. Hes allrea...

98% sure its the bearing...the exact same happen on the rear passenger side of my golf

what grade oil did you use??? and how recent did you do the change?

if its top end it must be the tappets...you say you have done a recent oil change, have you used oil that is too thick/thin for the engine?

also why did you adjust the tappets? were they making noise before?

im getting a 325 (well trying to, 'rents are against getting another car) and i just turned 19 :D...TBH from what people have said on here the 320 isnt bad, but its not really that good either, it goes like a 318 and it drinks like a 325...so your best bet is 318 for insurance purposes or a 325 for ...

put it in your sig ;) that way everyone will see it

the story doesnt end there my friend, then its off to the body shop for new inner+outer arches on the rear, plus the petrol filler neck needs attention. i have spent allot of money on this 320/325. all the parts the bloke will be useing for the engine rebuild will be genuine bmw parts. oh well, the...

my aunt drove her vw sharan with no MOT for about 7 months lmao she forgot that it ran out, when she booked it in (thinking that the mot is almost out, when its been out for ages), the tester pointed out to her that her mot was finished almost 7 months ago LOL in my opinion, extremly lucky

have just returned with car. No brushes with law and generally pleased with purchase. details to follow when I have photos etc. just as well as youd posted up the offences you were about to commit and the route you were taking :mad: hes probably lieing (just say you were braggin and say you are ter...

nice one

glad everything went ok, found any glitches with the car??

have you tried to see if the dizzy/rotor arm works??? if not rotor then test the coil, im sure someone nice will help out (they always do)

well??? did you get the car then??

i think its pretty dumb (nothing personal) to drive with no tax...i think you can get the car taxed with the green slip, and if you have proper insurance and not 1 day then you can deffo get it taxed...dont risk it, it will only be you out of pocket if you do

fitting is easy :D, there are 2 hex bolts behind the caliper, undo them then the caliper will fold backwords (away from the disk), "pry" the old pads out with a screw driver by pressing them away from the disk (doesnt matter if you damage the disk a little, your replacing it anyway), there should b...

My touring has been used to transport 3 engines so far. When I had the m20 in the back and a 1.6 m40 up front it struggled a bit but I managed to persuade a random pisshead that the one in the back was hoked up and it was twin engined and 4x4... so it was worth it. My interior is f*cked though and ...
