....haven't heard you cursing your meega lately, have you done all the work?

[theolodian]

Er, no . . . but since you asked . . .  

Bilsteins came in today.  Of course they require different tools from what is in the car.  What I can't figure out is the allen key on the top of the front struts.  Maybe my allen keys are just too cheap?  It is between 5.5 and 6mm, or 7/32 and 15/64 in SAE.  :-? :-? :-?

The auto tranny is really cheesing me off, despite the update.  In fact, sometimes I think it is worse.  That makes it that much more frustrating to be spending all this money on the suspension, and then the mind bending frustration of doing the EM gaskets.  I don't even have the money to do the front brakes, although they're closer to paper plates, because the suspension is worse.  Once I do all that I will have a reasonable car with cold leather seats and an auto tranny that makes me want to throw a wobbler.  

I take consolation in the fact that new cars are not worth the money, even if I had it.

I thought I was onto a sweet deal the other day with Boo Hoo's pristine heated seats, but they don't have airbags.  

I am not looking forward to Sunday with big rusty bolts.  Will try to WD40 some stuff tomorrow or Saturday.  

Going to see the S1 Quattro on Saturday!

I really do feel for you Theo. It seems to be that things dont go wrong one at a time, sh1t all happens at once. Buy a lottery ticket mate, you never know

Yeah, like things going wrong with a meega are as rare as winning the lottery.  

Thanks mate!  I really was hoping to spread this out over 2-3 months.
