Krzys Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 Ugh, so had the tyres fitted the other day and then yesterday was the first time I got the car up to any decent kind of speed and the balancing was horrendous! Took it back and one of the fronts were 60g too much and a rear was just as bad! That's not all though, had all four balanced again and it's still not 4ucking right, useless cnuts!

Krzys Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 Finally at the third time of asking the balancing has been sorted properly, Amazing what you can do when you calibrate the machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 So at the weekend with the sun shining I spent an afternoon giving both Bob and Steve a good clean, here are Bob's photos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzys Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 It's not too bad, just the roof bars get in the way when cleaning or drying the roof! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 So on our way home from Japfest the other half who was driving Bob called me (hands free of course) saying there's a noise when she comes off of the throttle. So we pulled our little convoy into the next services after failing to hear said noise from the Stagea next to her on the motorway. Great way to diagnose a fault by the way! Turns out that the front pads are about down to zero and they're just squealing away randomly until you press the brake pedal. I've ordered some new discs and pads for the front and pads for the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 I've been away for the weekend and my brother has kindly fitted me some new discs and pads for the front and new pads for the rear. Safe to say the front pads were 'low'. Project Mu HC800 front pads with RPB discs. Padgid rear pads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
