I Unfortunately no price in the ad, btw I thought we were obliged to include this! It just asked to phone for the bottom line. I suppose that in itself speaks volumes. I dare not call in case I'm classed as a time waster. :D There is no requirement to include a price, it is only advised, however it...

I have moved this to a more appropriate forum and I'm sure your aware Cam would normally be on this like a shot, however he is currently fully occupied. If we could ask for your patience I'm sure he will address the issue at his first opportunity.

Used the Halfords classic oil for some years now after it was recommended to me.

I use 20/50 engine oil, a lot of people use 3 in 1 but it is really to thin for the job.

Hi Louise, A simple enough job just have to watch you don't damage the thread on the new fuel line and I would take the opportunity to take the tank out and clea it. Before you do that is the flexible fuel line between the pump and the carb an old one? If so it is possible that is collapsing when fu...

Many years ago I remember we had a transit van at work that had the same symptoms, the problem turned out to be a partial blockage of the fuel line which was not enough to stop the engine but would starve it of fuel at anything above 50 mph. So might be worth looking into if all else has failed to f...

Contact your local branch who will I'm sure help.

At least make sure you get more than one opinion on value as there are some people out there who will try to take advantage.

I am currently speaking to the owner about purchasing the car, it is very close to me and I have arranged storage until a decision can be made on it's future if I am successful.

OK, what make and model :D you seem very reticent telling us :wink: At this stage a strong letter to the manufacturer may avoid others experiencing the same story I wouldn't want to let the cat out of the bag. :wink: They told me at the independent garage today that complaining to the manufacturer'...

Still not had my promised phone call from the dealer service manager. :roll: Just collected my car from the independent specialist, new brakes all-round, asked about my suspension to be told two people had looked at it and could find absolutely nothing wrong. So that's £810.00 quoted for work that i...

What car is it ? so I can avoid! :o It is a high performance so called British prestige car (or is that Indian) :wink:, I have waited a very long time to be able to afford one and knew it would come with large maintenance bills. What I object to is paying them to find out either they weren't done p...

Is there no way you can do the discs and pads yourself? Provided the discs aren't within their minimum thickness you could just do a pad change for now. Price up some discs and pads from your local motor factor, you'll be surprised how much you could save. It used to take me about three hours takin...

Surprisingly today I haven't had the promised phone call from the dealer service manager ! Took the car to an independent mark specialist late this afternoon who couldn't put car on their ramps as both had cars on them, quick look in the carpark and they said -: Rear pads, discs and sensor required ...

This wooden back was on the LCV stand at the NEC restoration show and looked really good.
