    Many thanks for the many thanks Graham. Is there any reason for not being able to answer the pre-trial question?
  2. Well Ruby, trying to sort it out rather than getting your trusted car dealer friend to sort it, must obviously be your choice. I think if I was the ‘dealer friend’ I would at least want to know about it, and be offered an opportunity to be involved in sorting it out, but….. Regards, Gareth.
  3. Welcome Ruby and sorry to hear of your issue. Did you buy it from a dealer? If so, you need to return it without fiddling with it. It should not be for you to sort it out. Regards, Gareth.
  4. Sorry Kev, so it is. Too hot today.
  5. Thanks Kev. Could you list what price you want for it? Regards, Gareth.

    Thanks Graham, but if you could answer the questions, and do the trial then it would help - otherwise you are going to get as many suggestions as the people you ask.
  7. Who are the actual insurers for your brokerage Dan? Regards, Gareth.

    Welcome Graham, A couple of questions/observations:- Any undue vibrations through steering or pedal when braking on right hand curves? Turning right and offside, seems strange - would be easier to explain if it was N/s. Have you tried testing the car in a large area where you can do continuous anti-clockwise circles at full lock for a few minutes, then checking for heat differences on both discs? Regards, Gareth.
  9. Welcome Jeffrey, Sounds good. If it were mine, I would now treat it to a full service so you have a basing point to move forward from. If you need any advice on parts (brands) and where to get them, then please let us know. Regards, Gareth.
  10. Hello Paul, Work on the principle that if you have checked all alternatives without solution, then you have to suspect the replaced component. In decades gone by, an unthinkable possibility. Regrettably now only too common a possibility. Kind regards, Gareth.
  11. That sounds good logic Garry. Good luck with finding it an appreciative home. Regards, Gareth.
  12. Welcome Mahmood. Would anyone be able to help with a recommendation for Mahmood? Regards, Gareth.
  13. Yes , Price?
  14. Price Gary please? Personally, I would not put a telephone number on this open forum. Interested parties can contact you via. a PM. How long have you owned it Gary? Regards, Gareth.
  15. Hello Frank, I completely understand the logic of why you wanted to DIY this - job satisfaction is indeed rewarding. The problem here is, you won’t be completely happy with the end result. If it was just a question of rubbing down some scratches, priming, and a couple of light coats of colour - just to make them look a bit better - then fine. Take some positives from it Frank, although it’s possible, you have found it’s not worth while. Regards, Gareth.
