  • I replaced my spark plugs yesterday, with NGK BKR7E's. The car sounds and feels a lot smoother. I should have changed to them straight after the flash i think...

    The old plugs were the OEM Bosch triple earth ones.

                Ohh no dont say that!! i just read your thread with your Gearbox problems and you already have and LSD ... i thought this would be one major step in bulletproofing the gearbox. Thats my plan of attack

                • Well Im only just finding out that the bolts that were supplied with the LSD kits may have been the wrong tensile strength causing the same end result as the factory rivits

                    If you were supplied with incorrect bolts, and that's ended up causing this issue, you could well argue for repairs to be paid for by the supplier/fitter (who may be the same people).
                    Nothing to see here...

                                haha your car falling apart Pierre? u fixed the glovebox lid? I bought a new one but having trouble fitting it can't workout how 2 remove the existing lid from glovebox also I damaged the glovebox light so need a new one. That switch system is so stupid it's damn near impossible 2 remove without mucking something up on the switch.
