vx jobs for the weekend: replace HID bulb (again), refit tubby splitters, replace lost side repeater, change header tank, give it a good clean.

Ah I remember seeing the missing side repeater at the national, did it just decide its had enough? Going for smoked ones?

I sold my stage 2 to buy a 4, cheaper to do it this way, when there were 3 for sale and now they've all gone! What's the spec on yours Mr COV?

OK, I'm currently looking at a Black E55k (519 lb ft!), a Classic 80's 911 or a Moonstone 3Dr Cosworth. It's a disease I have! I may need to take out a trader policy and just give in as I last about 2 months with any car at the moment! :)

Hmm, appear to have bought another M5 - one of the few cars I'm happy to own twice with the VX being one of the others :)

Stuwy has made me paranoid about checking my oil, are you supposed to check when engine is hot or cold?

-
turbobob
But don't do it straight after turning the engine off.

Good shout bob, in the manual and it says to check when engine is at operating temp but after a couple of mins of stopping to allow oil to accumulate in the sump. Checked mine when it was cold and is showing full. Will check again if I get a chance to drive her tomorrow

Oil when cold was full, at temp it dropped one bar. Topped up now showing full at operating temp. Garage must have filled her up cold, but due to the overheating problem forgot to recheck when hot. Sorted. Now the final rattle.....the driverd window!

Monsoon weather this evening. Seriously considering putting the hardtop back on... In July :(

-
SteveA
You know monsoon refers to wind and not rain right?
Jul 10 2012 08:03 PM -
Wick
Thought it was both!! Add some rain, thunder and lightening into the mix for good measure then. We've had it all tonight.

They are a good track tyre but they are miles away from A048's IMO.

Should I have wheels? Should I get a PA tank? Do I fit a 4.17 gear box and light fly? to many options, so little time.
