Hi chaps update,

Is this the end,

Had an independent inspection and car has no rust, except
On the front chassis rails where the suspension and wish bones come together
Drivers side wasn’t an mot fail or advisory
But is on its way, now to be done properly how much will this cost any rough ideas
Any one on here into that depth of welding, and can the sub frame be lowered or is this an engine out job? 😢

Update, can of cataclean and a good run later
Now passes emissions with ease, however I am taking it to my local garage for them to do
A proper inspection of this area that meant to have corrosion, as yes is was the garage that failed it that quoted 100 for the welding, so I’m not convinced it even has a problem if you saw the car you would question it to, so if they don’t find corrosion it will be brake lines and re mot elsewhere 👍😊

I have just noticed on the emissions test sheet at the top
With car details they put the engine capacity down as 1750
Would that make a difference to the co2 fail or pass just seems
Odd they put that when it’s 2.2

How often would you recommend
Cleaning the throttle body?

Okay chaps,

Today I am very happy,
I managed to source a second hand thottle body,
For 40 notes, was very grotty but spent lots of time
Cleaning it up, it came up like brand new,
Have fitted to my car and it runs like a dream,
No dead spots responds instantly to the thottle,
In 7 years of ownership I have always had to kick
Down a gear to over take, and has always sounded laboured on hills, not anymore it picks up
And takes of even without goin down a gear,
If there is any one out there that’s thinks cleaning
The throttle body, isn’t important or won’t make much difference, think again.
All I can say is wow, oh and thanks for your help doc. :) :y

If it was fractured or something 😟
