For anyone interested, I contacted powerflex regarding the upper engine insert. This was the response from them. Hopefully a replacement arrives shortly and I will have a look and see if the fitment is still the same. There's clearly something off with the design as many people are having...

Loads of people say this and it put me off fitting one for a while. But I decided to do it anyways and the vibrations really aren't increased by that much, sure you can feel the difference but that's expected. But it's nothing huge. I'm not sure what I'm missing!

Definitely worth another shot, I was at wits end with it I must say. I covered both the powerflex insert and mount in plenty of white grease so it slipped in mega easy. Once you've got it to the point of the metal bush touching the insert I got a large flat head and just pushed it over from the...

I was tempted to give mine a spray whilst I had it out today, but I was fighting trying to get my powerflex bush in too! It does fit but they've changed the design and it's a poor fitment now. I managed to get mine in with alot of grease and force. Then had to use a large flathead to push the...

He's a tight sod, doesn't part with his money these days!

It wasn't because I put it off for ages, but it is now! :kissingheart:

Making the most of the long weekend. Fitted a stud and nut kit ready for the new wheels. Although, did make a boo boo and did it at stupid o'clock on a school night and made a mistake. I mixed up with the bolts and put one long in the rear and short in the front. Sorted it now though :oops...

Iain couldn't have put it any better so I won't drag the bush around. But on the terms of consequence I'll add a little word of advice as it's invaluable. I'm 25 (just about) now, when I was your age I was the same; drove fast, beyond my means/the cars. It's good fun until something happens and...

That's a pretty knob! (Couldn't help myself, sorry) :oops:

Yep, everytime it's the opposite of what I think it'll be lol.

Cheap too, surprisingly! I did actually find some 'OEM look' pipe for it just yet to fit it. Trying to find some decent C3 washers to fit as the ones I ordered before were cheap and nasty.

Welcome. Love the plate :french:

I can't wait to get this fully installed for the Bluetooth alone, it drives me crazy in the car at the moment without it. I have got an adapter but messing around with it everytime I get in the car is frustrating. When I fit the satnav last time I didn't fit the microphone for handsfree and...

More satnav progess. How fun! Managed to get some more done today, probably the worst of the jobs to be honest. Also played around with the aerial base, no matter what I tried it wouldn't sit correctly and has been holding water around the base. Everything is straight so I'm really not sure...

This has been on for a while now, I agree it's overpriced and whilst I get it's 'collector' condition, I'd much personally rather have one with a bit more mileage and great service history. I think it'll sell though, it'll just take the right buyer and probably one that doesn't know what to look...

Bet ya would! :tearsofjoy: Fitting everything is fine as before just I'm not totally sure what wires you jumped from before and I'm putting the microphone in too this time haha. I guess I'll just keep an eye on it and see if it does have any water ingress, I did test it and nothing was coming...

Also, this is the old aerial. I fit it the exact same way before. But yours definitely sits how I expected mine to haha.

It is but I've tried everything and can't get it to sit like that, it constantly slips off! :sweatsmile: I was going to message you actually as I may need satnav help, AGAIN! If I can pick your brain :poke:

Nothing overly exciting to update today however, they're updates nonetheless! I've just been slowly trying to do a few small bits here and there to tidy up the car a bit more, still a long way to go although every little helps. Ever since I got the car the airbag has driven me insane. Somehow...
