    Any interest in my diesel K12 before I trade it in?

    Got a new job so I'm getting a new car. My dCi 86 has a private sale price of around £2,400 and trade-in of £2,200. I think one of the injectors is a bit sticky sometimes when it's cold and the steering rack is starting to wear a bit but I still do 60 miles a day in it and it goes like stink...

    Quick question about reverse lights...

    Got my MOT next weekend. I notice when I put it in reverse only one white light at the back turns on. Is this right or is it supposed to light up on both sides o_O ? TIA.

    Anyone got a decent guide for front bumper removal?

    I've just washed a large oily patch off my intercooler and can see one of the tubes has a large stone dink in it that's obviously blowing oil mist out. An intercooler is fairly cheap on ebay but it would be a lot easier with no bumper :confused:...

    Advice needed please...

    Noticed a couple of months ago that my tsurikawa has obviously disintegrated on the motorway somewhere :(.

    Fitting an oil catch can to a diesel K12

    Right, in an attempt to reduce the oil coming up the pressurised air tube (could be the turbo bearing but shouldn't be because I always warm up and cool the turbo when setting off and arriving) and to keep the inlet system a bit cleaner, I'm going to fit a catch can.

    Anyone removed their rear drums yet?

    I need to replace the brake fluid in mine after reading lots of horror stories about failed ABS pumps. I know the drums have the bearings in them but once the circlip is out, is it easy to remove the drum to get to the brake cylinders?

    NW area: compressor and air tools.

    Following the thread about 'forum tools' recently, I've just bought a small 2nd hand compressor. At the moment, I've only got an impact wrench and ratchet wrench but if you're in the northwest and have an interesting job to do, give me a nod on here and we can come to an rrangement. My car's...
