condolences buddy

I usually like to as well for peace of mind lol, but due to really needing oil had to settle for this stuff. Hopefully someone can answer this for the both of us

lovely car mate, nice wee selection of cleaning goodies there as well.

Would oil quality contribute? Fired in some crap we use at work, cant remember name but its stil 10-40. Isnt great stuff tho cost me 10 quid for 5 litres lol

sump plug was leaking but got a washer on it and that seemed to sort it. Not managed to get underneath due to constant rain but there's not any oil puddles or anything where car sits.

Howdy chapps, checked the oil the other day i my MB3 and was under the bottom marking after maybe a month or so of driving, which will be close to 2.5-3k. Should these use oil naturally or am i just doing to many spirited journeys

117k on x reg mb3

looks very nice indeed mate. Doesnt seem to sit stupidly high on the back, it is a lovely looking MB though mate. Think the Koni's are defo the option that I'm going to take.

Ya dont have a picture kicking around so i can see what mine would look like because the koni's seem the way I'm going to head. I'm happy with the back sitting slightly higher as long as it doesnt look like its on stilts. Sitting higher at the back should also cure the camber and stop destroying tyres after a few thousand miles

Whats the ride comfort etc like, not bothered if its a bit rough as it cant be much worse than the set up mine has lol. Would these be better than the FK's and does yours handle quite good? I would love coilovers but dont think they will be in the cash range.

Hey folks i know this has probably been asked a lot but my comp running a bit slow so search is taking aggeeess. At the minute i have standard shocks on my mb3 with some cheapy ebay coilover spring things (not put on by me) which tbh are just crap. Ride comfort is crap, handling is okay and its causing so much camber on the rear i cant keep up with tyre wear lol. I was just wandering would the likes of koni strt shocks and springs, or fk shocks and springs be a good call or coilovers. Not wanting to spend crazy money tho as have a kiddie on the way lol. Obviously coilys would handle beta etc but would the koni's etc still be a decent choice?
