So what have you done to your car today?

Mmm sport badges are, well, badges reminds me of the late 90's when everyone wanted red Tdi badges on their 90bhp 1.9 tdis

It's funny, but this M sport badge came with the M engine, M suspension, M .. etc E46 M3.

That's alright then  ...at least it's not an Audi  . I know someone who had an E36 1.6 coupe, with M wheels,  body kit and interior. Quite a smart look easily destroyed by simply starting the thing

Nah, I'd rather have a M3 that looked like a 316 I got passed by what looked like a standard 325 the other day - he went past like I was stood still so I googled the badge on the back ('357ci') - turns out it's an E46 with an LS1 swap

There's always one

A cracking car.

[Manual Elite V6]

When I got home from work I changed my front ARB links and bushes, rear subframe bushes and sorted out a blowing exhaust joint on my mates polo.

Car is now much firmer at the back and much more quiet when driving.

Heater Bypass Valve,  Cam Cover Gaskets,  Rear Shocks, Cambelt and Water Pump oh and nearly forgot, Indicator stalk 

Don't worry though, it's actually only a handfull of things that go wrong, and once done once, you know what to expect next time Which is precisely why we're all here

You've been busy because of your cars dealer servicing rather than in spite of it small consolation, I know, but you are getting there

p.s. Did anyone mention coil packs and crankshaft sensors Hello and welcome btw

[Kevin Wood]

Is it still running better following our tinkering, Al?

[05omegav6]

For the most part it is still behaving itself thank-you  I've a new breather bridge and that pipe on order, and will replace the rubber connections on the vac hoses just to rule them out next step after that will be a brand new loom I think. Does still have the odd hissy fit, but they do seem to be milder... need to replace the EML light though as it's finally gone out  permanently

What's the internal diameter required for the Vac connections

[ndmv6]

well,finally given up  with my omega and traded it in...20mpg around town and 32 mpg on a run is no good for me these days...sad to see it go,but it was clapped out...

Took mine for a late (by about a week) MOT

It passed!!  No (written) advisories, but could do with a couple of rear tyres ( ) but I already knew that.

Good work Andy, if a little late! 

I'm glad you posted this though, because it jogged me to go and check the MOT dates on mine.  I thought they were due Sept/Oct, but it turns out I've got 4 due this month!!
