Bought some new seats last week, Blue Monaco's
picked up, cleaned and fitted them today (will take some pics later)
Also was soooo sick of the loud exhaust i bought an off the shelf CAT back! the nice thing is the previous owner had the stainless system built up to OE joins sooo only needed the backbox! Happy Days
Sounds lush, lovely and quiet
just the way i like it
I sourced some MG Mats from my local rover dealer (no postage, saved myself £25 as of course i got mugged into buying two sets one for mine and one for the miss's lol)
Thats most of my little niggles knocked off
Bought a blank key but it was the wrong type sending that back
Exhaust sorted
Handle i'm going to repair at the weekend
The intermediate rough running on tickover still puzzles me, i think it may be the MAF on it's way out. The aftermarket filter looks like it hasn't been cleaned and oiled in a while will try that. Failing that will whip off the EGR and clean that.
Boost i've turned down, but it's still going to 21-22 in 5th, so it might have been doing more before
turning down seems to have stopped the oil around boost controller.
I need a new tyre as ones got about a 15" slash on the inside wall grr get my alloys refurbed (unless a set of 180's come up for around £200)
Next purchase will be two new LED interior bulbs in WHITE! god only knows what posses people to put blue ones in i mean really. On the LED note with the switch set to illuminate when door opens, with the door closed the LED emits a tiny amount of light, is that the migi's **** worth of power in the wires? I turn it to the off position not that the stupid blue light is much cop anyhow lol
Because i get paid every 4 weeks, in February I get paid twice with only one months bills so Donny Diesel will be getting a rather large order
may even save a bit and buy all of the kit he does at once! absolutely marvelous! Off the shelf front mount, stainless turbo outlet, silicone as required, a quality oil catch tank (actually functions not just looks pretty) and the ported manifold and charge pipe. I think after all that and a reidy remap it'll be pulling like a freight train.
Other things i'll buy is the 180 front brakes (although i'm a little offput after the last time i went from 262 to 282 as i felt pedal went spongy.
Going to get my car booked in with a paintless dent remover to get her looking like brand new, then I think thats about it.
and yes mine is a 3 button fob two button must be for F's ?
