32valves Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Well, someone had to start it ;DIn my case, haven't looked and likely to remain that way until 2011. So let's hear about the squishy brakes, wobbly wheel bearings, floppy shocks, lazy wipers, rusty whatever, rattly gearboxes, smokey engines, self destructing electrics, dim lights, 8mpg and dropping horror stories all fixed and made ready for the parade.

smithy Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Eh? Where's the logic? "The car's getting older so we'll test it less often?" that's odd!Sorry - jealousy talking. As you were..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hoses are in the post and shoes (out of stock) sourced locally.Having gone to fit the brake shoes the bloomin linings have been stuck onto the shoes the worng way around, so that the leading edge is where the trailing edge should be on each shoe. They are made by LPR, I suspect they are all the same in this brand!I have sourced another set made by EBC via ebay from a motor factor at Brightlingsea, about 40 mins away, however they were not stocked but he assured me they would arrive at the shop sometime tomorrow. On top of that I have just had a phonecall from the hotel booked for germany - they have a plumbing disaster and cannot guarantee a shower in time for our arrival!Arrgh!!!!!Mike - I fitted a set a few years ago that where the wrong way round. No noticeable difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
