  2. Hi Guys When I put my air con on and turn it to max blow loads of sponge and bits come out all over the dash. Is there a guide on how to change the filter etc. Many thanks Dann
  3. I have a arc induction kit on my n/a it comes with its own box and does a very good job at filtering. My induction pipe is clean when I remove it. The only thing with the arc is that you hear the engine sucking like its got heavy breathing. But I like that sound anyway.
  4. Hi There Take a few pics of your engine bay close ups of the trouble areas were pipes not connected and that way it will give the techs somthing to look at and advise on what might be the problem.

    Tyres (wtf)

    I bought 4 new tyres about 3 months ago anyway I got some not cheap but not expensive paid £410 for 4 tyres Khumo rear and fullrun fronts. Now as I was driving the tyres were aweful in wet sliding all over then noticed there was a bludge in the inside of the right rear. the wall of the tyre was buldged out anyway already decided to change the rear tyres as I got the rear removed I found what the buldge was the inner wall had give away all split inside the tyre was on verge of blowing out. http://img397.imageshack.us/img397/9136/photo480ri9.jpg http://img397.imageshack.us/img397/photo480ri9.jpg/1/w800.png Now I have fitted a set of pirrells at £420 for two a though my life was worth more than cheap tyres. But story does not end there. On motorway other day at motorway speeds the viabration through steering wheel came on bad like I had flats at front but handling was ok ish. As to be expected with the fullruns on front. Had a quick check of tyre pressure ok added a bit more in 2psi upped it to 26psi in fronts. This did not cure it got home Took wheel off and checked discs and suspension etc all ok nothing loose. then looked at tyre This is the horror result I saw. http://img390.imageshack.us/img390/5074/photo629vl0.jpg http://img390.imageshack.us/img390/photo629vl0.jpg/1/w800.png http://img60.imageshack.us/img60/444/photo631kr3.jpg http://img60.imageshack.us/img60/photo631kr3.jpg/1/w800.png http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/7540/photo632lv7.jpg http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/photo632lv7.jpg/1/w800.png http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/8371/photo633qi0.jpg http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/photo633qi0.jpg/1/w800.png So have now parked the car at side of my house untill I can save up to get a set of front tyres. Both are the same front right pictured is split all round and front left is split in few places but makes about half of it. These tyres on motorway would have been heating up and the tread is coming off the tyre. I dont know were I stand on maybe getting fullrun to pay for these tyres or new tyres as no way should they be issueing death traps like these. Anyone know if I can get some sort of deal or were I stand ? Please check your tyres guys and girls. Dann
