[T9 man]

400+ BHP MapTun engine, and anything else my car desires! Might buy her indoors a new Dyson as well if she's good!

 

[Jakeymd]

Get a service. And ultimatly get a new car.

 

[herb]

the only resolution i will make is to keep the thing well serviced (as usual) and to sort my remaining 2 vac leaks i have found

 

[lutonmatt]

well mine is to sell the audi in the spring to pay for my bike test and a bigger bike
unles i have the cash laying around for it

and buy a new landrover once the prices go down a bit and look after that one a bit better

 

[old-git]

Get the bloody thing finished!

 

[bigbadjoe]

During the year (not just first three months)

- Cams + Pullies
- Remap
- Fix the spot of flaking paint on the boot lid
- Carbon exhaust guard
- Touch up my alloyes
- Find the Bar steward squeek that had developed since the snow. Its under the dash somewhere!!

GRRRRR Bloody thing. I bet it is a leef or something stuck in the dash. Or something small like that. Not happy. If it is a mouse, then he had better watch out!!!!

 

[geraint13]

get a cat to catch the mouse. . . . . . .
feel a rhyme coming on lmao

 

[stamford]

I will get it on track ASAP, bookings are open already! I need to test the suspension set-up! Other than that I guess it'll be upgrading a few bits before the next MOT.

 

[Big Fat Fatty]

my new years resolution will be to keep the Honda clean and the same colour!, as mentioned in the WiP thread i don't want the paint to fade to pink but to keep the deep shine she has atm, at some point i'll get round to polishing her properly to get rid of the previous owners swirl marks he left in the paint

Never thought of that. It could be. It sounds (this is going to sound stupid) loud but in a quiet way. It sounds like its coming from a long way away. As if it is closer to the bottom of the dash in the left hand corner. Its hard to explain.

Would it be one of them lumps that freez on just behind your wheel?

 

[geraint13]

@ bbj. doubt it mate, vibration and gravity will cause it to fall off imo.

i like the way you explained it tho mate.
'loud in a quiet sort of way' cool as.
