Sorry for the late reply - thanks it goes in for mot today then has 4 wheel geo setup at sumo power on Friday. Then I want to put some miles on her can't say about future mOdifying plans with a baby on the way but I'll find little things to do For sure...

 

[pegliobaglio]

Glad to hear it dude!
I am off to get my allignment done next week too,how much are you expecting to pay at sumo?
Bet you can't wait to drive it a bit before the bad weather is here again.
Hope the mot goes smoothly mate

Mot will go without a hitch I suspect. All the wear items are new - to be honest i can't see him wanting to touch the thing lol. Just found out today I made a schoolboy error and had the fuel feed and returns plugged on the wrong way so I swapped those over, also had my propshaft checked and rebalanced as I have had vibrations at certain revs ever since fitting the hyper single. Turns out Jez had refitted the prop 180 degrees out on the middle and I always thought it was a result of going from dual mass to single mass.... Annoying thing was when I spotted the vibration first time and took it all the way back to him I suggested prop fitment and he dismissed it as not being the cause. Had he just swapped it back in five mins I'd have had a perfect car again..... Turns out now, once a year I have to refit the cat and remove the front bumper to get into my local (trustworthy) mot mans garage lol - no biggy but still a nuisance...

 

[pegliobaglio]

is a nuisance but what can you do!!
jez missed a few things on my car when i had him do some work too,seems all the "best" places arent that great,my dff from garage d was knackered after 3k km hard to find people to work on your car thats why its best to do it yourself!!
did sumo quote you a price for your allignment?or is it down to how long it takes?

 

[Fruitbooter]

Dean when you say the prop was out by 180 degrees in the middle what do you mean? Do you mean where the 2 halfs of the prop join it was joined back together through the wrong holes?

I had to fit my cat for the MOT, its still on now as I really cba to swap it back lol also it may just be in my head and my granny driving but I think im getting better mpg with the cat on

Yes mate. The prop Is probably balanced as a whole piece and weighted as such. If you are a hole out in the middle for example the icing will develop imbalance. As for the cat, it's your choice. I'm mapped on a different setup all together and tbh a cat probably wouldn't last long with a full 3 inch exhaust. They are a restriction after all......

 

[DeanS15]

Double post

 

[Fruitbooter]

Im glad I didn't take my prop apart in the middle as I managed to loose track of what holes align on the diff end, even though I cable tied 2 of the same holes!..I ended up forgetting and while painting the diff I cut it off :annoyed: Mine seems fine though, not getting any annoying vibrations etc thank god!

 

[DeanS15]

It doesn't matter so much if at all at that end mate but I still find it best to put everything back as it came off

 

[pegliobaglio]

Bloody hell that's a good price mate!!
I just had a quote of £ 264 to get mine done!!!!needless to say I am ringing a few other places!!
Might even take the trip to sumo power then if that's a standard price for everyone
