Took the mig to work today, was fine & managed to get out
the street just tho..(yesterday i couldnt move it  :-? )
But come 5pm, it was startin to snow & freeze on the road,
roads was covered & snow bleachin down.
Was easy on the throttle, snow button on TC button was showing on dash (think a  turned if off) got up the hill,
Bluddy thing, goes sideways when it wants & back end
went twice on turnin right  and i was going slow.
Hated goin up and down banks as the arse end just twitches
& car goes where it wants !!

What tyre pressure should be in ??
In the boot there is spare alloy, a tool box & a big sack of
wooden pellets litter to try n weigh it down a bit

Its not my drivin before u say owt

Tyre pressures tend to drop in cold weather.

I would put something weighty in the boot.

Have got the spare alloy, heavy tool box & a large sack of wooden cat litter lol.
What do you mean about tyre pressure tend to drop.
Is 25psi enough for this bad snow
Cheers

Hi, driving the mig in snow & ice it goes its own way when
i dont want it to. Mick put a new tyre on the back which
its improved a bit & have plenty weight in the boot.

But have tyre presures at 25psi. Is this a good thing
or bad thing. I really dont wanna go sideways around
bends anymore, as snow & ice is far different  than wet roads.

Cheers

Thanks for the replies.
Have asked lad along the street how much to fit a gearbox
if needed & he said 80 to 100 quid, but he is a bit rough & ready.

Hi, we are looking at buying another omega as a runaround  until my s4 is back on the road and then mick(tyreburner) gets the omega & found one local on flea bay with less than 100k, loads of tax and mot, 3.0 elite all the toys, but asked the guy if it had any problems &
this was his reply...

Tyres are fine. Rear lots of tread. Front will probably need changing after a couple of thousand miles. I think the gear selector switch may need a clean, as after the car has been stood for a few days (bearing in mind the climate where I am) the auto box warning lights up. Once the car has warmed up, it drives perfectly.That's about it.

Whats your opinions on this please. - the climate means he lives next to see sea just by berwick??

Thanks
Tina
