Title: Some questions....yes it's me again!!!
Post by: coastie123 on 27 April 2010, 15:07:44
Hi all again!!!

1. My back box has blown a hole and I'm going to replace it along with the drivers side exhaust pipe as this pipe is still the original - I've been quoted £130 fitted for the backbox and pipe, is this fairly reasonable price??

2. Which spark plugs would you recommended for my car??

I'm due another oil service in a couple of days, how much is the 10/40 from the stealers approx as my TC hasn't arrived yet

I'd hang on for the trade card if it's through ABS and when you get spark plugs I'd go for NGK

Vx twin electrode spark plugs, part no. 009195109 are ideal.

£3.73 ex vat  £2.31 ex vat each with TC

Anyone else local to you that could lend a hand with the TC in the meantime?

Don't get the oil without the trade card mate, it's so much cheaper when you've got one

I was recommended the Vauxhall spark plugs as well, cheap on Trade and reliable

GM 10w40 oil is about £25 retail plus vat, and on TC it's about £10.89 I think plus vat. So there is a saving worth waiting for.
