I know I'm an ex-owner now, but I wouldnae mind a wee catch up with the guys. As long as you don't mind the zoom-zoom club gatecrashing ;D
If its a sunny day there might be another one ::)

Yeah. This is Scotland mate. It'll be sunny. It'll also rain heavily for several hours. Then it'll snow. In between times we'll have a few hurricanes. Raining horizontally at the moment.  :-/


Yup, if you don't like the weather, just wait 10 minutes!

All 4 seasons in most days.....   :D

Rough running at idle will probably be either the idle control valve needing cleaned to within an inch of its life with carb cleaner then a few drops of oil or it could be an air leak of some description.  Both relatively easy straightforward fixes...

Paint?  Nope...   ;D

Howl?  Just at startup?  If so, secondary air injection pump.  Plug under nearside inner wheelarch.  If all the time/when driving, wheel bearing or potential diff bearing?

I have a set of 225/55/16 still on CDX rims which you can borrow to prove whether it is your tyres or not. The tyres themselves only have about 3mm of tread on them so aint worth keeping but it would prove the problem one way or another.

Another good reason for joining us on Thursday  :y

Quite a bit south of you! I'm in the central belt, just outside Bathgate - where the cambelt meet will be on Thursday.
