Bad Garage

After taking 26 hours just to change an exhaust manifold I would avoid. When I made a complaint that they quoted 2 hours and left us with no transport they said "Tough". :censored:

Re: Silly Southampton Driver.

321800390134 this is the ebay number of the type I've got. It fits into your cigarette lighter and you can put your own size SD card in. I've seen them for £50 but I only paid £10 from China three years ago.

Hope that helps and I'm calling my insurance company tomorrow. :love-thx:

I did my Army basic training at Arborfield Depot in Reading, small world?

Our friends have a boat, that's the only way I get on the water.

Re: How do you stay sane with a 206cc?

Our ABS light came on a couple of times but I found the offside wheel arch liner was missing so I replaced that and so far it's not come back. I think it was rainwater getting in there.

I'm OK driving with the engine management light on but my wife gets stressed.

Re: Silly Southampton Driver.

It's a cheap Chinese dashcam I bought off ebay Kirisute but I see they're selling them in the UK now. I chose it because it was a slimline model on the windsreen. The GoPro would be better but I can't afford it right now as a "mature" student. Having a dashcam there is no bullshit about wh...

Re: How do you stay sane with a 206cc?

Thanks, I replaced the NGK with Bosch Super FR8ME Spark Plugs. I've looked on different sites and some favour one over the other but the Bosch seem to work for us. It may be another coincidence but she just seems to be better all round so maybe there was a misfire. I was so close to selling her but ...

Re: issue with exsaust

My exhaust did the same it was an old rubber mounting.

If the screw "1" isn't tightened it gradually snaps the door strap. Happened on our old 206.

Re: new to site n pugs

We had the same with the boot latch and keep an allen key in the boot all the time now. Our latch has a mind of its own and wanders?

Re: New but had my car for 5 years - baby on way

Our 8 year old is big for his age and sits in the rear just fine too. We don't use a booster because we can't get one that fits the snug rear seats.

Re: How do you stay sane with a 206cc?

Hello again, yes it was a coincidence the catalytic converter fault returned again. I bought a cheap £13 diagnostic reader and the code said misfiring. I looked up the code and it said it could be spark plugs, coil pack, ECU and a few sensors. I started as usual with cheapest fix first, spark plugs,...

Re: How do you stay sane with a 206cc?

I hope that's the case. With fault finding I start at the cheapest fix first, it was going to be thermostat and battery next.
