General Car Chat / Astra 1.6T Petrol - Coolant Leak
« on: 12 August 2018, 15:50:20 »
Next door have a 1.6 T Astra J, it's developed a water leak. I've offered to get it up on my ramps for a look, I've never stuck my head under the bonnet of an Astra.
Off to Google for common areas, but any areas I should really check? I'll be looking around belt areas for water pump leak, HBV (if I can locate it) and radiator area.

What's the difference, why is one rear shock £30 and the other £70?

General Car Chat / Fitting Wheel Spacers
« on: 25 July 2018, 10:45:23 »
Not for me, but car share buddy's 2018 BMW M140i.
As I've got the tools/driveway space, doing it at mine. I've looked a few videos, looks simple enough: Remove wheel, adding spacer to hub, put wheel back on and using the longer wheel nuts provided.
Anything else I should look out for?

Just 6 standard ones on there, can remember a time with 100’s listed.

Omega General Help / Sunroof Seal
« on: 13 July 2018, 20:45:32 »
It’s not leaking, but there is an awful lot of wind noise from the front of it. I’ve had it open a few times in hot weather, to cool car down quicker. Sure it’s noiser, perhaps not sealed as well. Nice steady 85mph cruise, I had to close the blind it’s that annoying.
Does look all cracked and such, it is a 16 years old...
Easy to replace? Worth doing?

General Car Chat / Uh-oh
« on: 05 July 2018, 16:57:14 »
My car share buddy has just ordered a M140i, with manual box.
Hopefully it proves more reliable than Jimmy's
Does make me wonder though, he is about 6 years younger than me, does own/mortgage his own place. But cruises around in brand new high spec BMW's.
I just use a 16 year old rusting banger barge

Anyone used one recently? Do they actually manage to provide a better deal than high street options?
It's renew time this year, looking to wrap this into a house move as well. I want to go fixed rate for 5 years, to ride out what ever the Brexit storm is.
Probably going to go with Halifax again, as all my stuff is with them. 1.79% fixed for 5 Years is about best I can do with them.
Trouble is we've seen a house we really like, but I doubt I can find another 100k behind the sofa

General Car Chat / Zafira Tourer - Pollen Filter
« on: 03 April 2018, 13:24:29 »
Does anyone know if I need the carbon type filter, for a 2014 Zafira-C? ECP shows both plain white and black carbon versions. 
Rather know via the easy way than having to remove the old one first, as I will need to remove the glovebox.
It does not have climate, just regular air-con.
