have you got your wheel yet mate

I mean what is going on!! I really don’t know how they can mess up the water system I mean it cant be that complicated can it !! I watched the news and they are thinking about putting a drought alert in which means you can’t use water for anything apart from essential use... I mean what!!! And to add to that they haven’t even got their priorities in place yet.. I watched the news last night and some of the water companies are buying yes buying their customers water saving washing machines and other appliances in order to save water... er how about sort the leaks!! Instead of saving 1 litre a day and spending money on non essential appliances.. Repair the pipes which are currently shoving thousands of gallons an hour into the streets!! Water is free resource and let’s face it in England there is plenty of it. Just because the water companies cannot bother to sort the leaks in the systems and get the water back to the reservoirs is why we are having a shortage. Why should we have to suffer the water companies "saving money" problems. Rant over

Was misdiagnoesed by my GP so been going on for around 6-8 years difficult to tell really all i can say is when the surgeon came round the next day he said it was bigger than they expected (about half a size of a standard marble), i am going in for another operation next year to make sure its all fixed and then they are looking to reconstruct the ear bones that have been destroyed to see if i can get some of my hearing back

No dimple yet i am afriad lol, to swollen hehehe, the dimple will be about the size of a 2p which is nice Hurts like hell though

Welcome

As some of you know i went in for an operation on Sunday, i came out on Tueday morning feeling really rough, well its now thursday and i am pleased to say it looks like i am on the mend which is nice, still in lots of pain though, they made a swell job of sowing my ear back on hehehe so i will be left with minimal scarring which is nice, still i cant drive for another week which is a shame. Still these bad ass painkillers are quite funny lol they make you kinda well in your own little world lol. Still glad to be here still

Its not that i dont like your dash mate just that i am not to keen on the wheel not my kinda taste, it still looks better then the original. I kinda got my sights set on the Momo Millenium Evo wheel.

Not to sure i like the look of those, how much are the boss kits that allow to keep the cruise control for the momo wheels

Does anyone have a how to on this. Looking at doing this over the weekend Can anyone help ?

Yeah you could do that, but i would be led to belive that if you have to change a dip switch setting manualy on the ECU you would not be able to change fuel maps whilst driving although i wouldnt see that as a problem. I will have to do more investiagting i think

I am looking to changing my steering wheel but i dont want to get rid of my cruise control. Is there any steering wheels that allow you still to have this, or would it be better to get my old wheel refurbished.... And on from that has anyone had their steering wheels refubished and if so any pics and suggestions?

Try meguires 3 stage treatment i use it alot and i tell you what it looks beautiful afterwards also the paintwork is so smooth amazing. 1. Paint cleaner 2. Polish 3. Wax Takes about 3 hours at the minimum

Tell me about it i got stuck in for lunch to

No worries i have found out how you do it. Bit pants you have a dip switch you need to set to either one or the other. So you cant just switch the programs over using a normal switch Thats Pants !!

I kind of like the idea that you can select two diffrent preset modes for Race or Street, now how do you select the programs is there a switch that is included or do you have to buy one ? Either way how do you do it ?

recover time is two weeks but they can only afford me to be in 1 night before the bed needs to be used again oh well i will be recovering at home with home visits

As some of you know i was diagnosed with a condition called cholestatoma 6 months ago and have only just heard word for my operation date - 15th May this monday coming. Not looking forward to it really but at least there will be no more pain after that 2 week recovery time though im not allowed to drive but i can stare at my soop and feel better that way For all those people that dont know what cholestatoma is, basicly it is where the eardrum has become perfurated, over and over again due to ear infections, which is due to a mishaped ear canal, anyway over this time the ear renews the skin in your ear and usualy pushes it out (earwax) but in this case it has gone through my eardrum and started to create a very hard ball of skin (called cholestatoma) the probelm is that this condition can be serious if left unattended, so far all i know that it has destroyed 50% of my bones in my ear (so i have lost my hearing in one ear) but if left longer it will destroy the main nerve running to my face and it would be unrepairable, also if left i could develop mengitus, or a brain abcess, Either way i have yo have it done. The operation will take around 4 hours to compleate and the thing that scares me the most is they have to drill a hole in the hard bone at the back of my ear. Oh well what doesent kill you makes you stronger right

might be worth it if you had some space and knew what you were doing

Would a Geometry check say if the chassis is twisted ? Cos if it does then it may be worth doing that first.

thats great thanks - sent e-mail to him. I really hope that it does not... it depends do i spend £150-£200 checking to see if it does need doing or £500-600 on a brand new suspension set ?? I think i will take it to a jig and see what it says.

Not sure what you mean by crabbing?

The car is in lymington at my Fiancés but it will be back with in basingstoke soon. What am i looking for along the door sills and under the car ?

Well i the car has always rubbed on the passanger side of the car when going round a roundabout for example. I would put it down to the suspension being very low and the fact i am running 19" but it dosent do it on the drivers side, + i had a small accident which invloved a new wing and a dent being pulled out of the back) recently is there anyway of telling the the chassis is twisted by looking

Ok i think my car may have to go in for a check to see if the chassis is twisted, i may be over reacting but i need to make sure. Where in hampshire can this be done ?

or even buy a Jig yourself http://search.ebay.co.uk/car-jig_W0QQfcclZ1QQfclZ4QQfnuZ1QQfsooZ1QQfsopZ1
