    Bubbles on Rubber Seals around Pistons

    Afternoon, I went to change my front brake discs and pads this afternoon and noticed that the rubber seals around the pistons have some bubbles in (see picture) I have decided not to change the pads and disc just yet as I may aswell replace all the seals at the same time. Why would these have...

    Oldish pads on Newish discs

    Afternoon, I currently have a set of DS2500 pads which I fitted 3000 miles ago (still have loads of meat on). I recently purchased a set of USED KTEC Black Edition grooved discs that had covered approx 300 miles. My current discs are shagged. Obviously I want to put the new discs on but know...

    Squeak from front left wheel assembly that stops when brakes are applied.

    They were a new set of DS2500 in Febuary. Covered about 3k on them, will be rather annoyed if they are ruined. I'll have them out at the weekend and check.

    Squeak from front left wheel assembly that stops when brakes are applied.

    Over the past few weeks my car has developed a squeak from front left wheel assembly. At first I though it may just be a stone in there and it will eventually fall out. However the squeak disappears when applying the brakes and when the wheel is turning. Any ideas as to what this might be? I'm...

    Fitting a Ktec Cat Back this week. How to get it right first time.

    Morning, I am fitting my new Ktec Cat back this week and after reading about other peoples experiences re knocking and melting the diffuser I want to make sure I get it right first time. Is the knocking obvious when driving? Where does it knock? Alignment tips? Any help/advice would be...

    Uprated Engine Mounts put more stress on the manifold welds?

    I've recently had my exhaust manifold welded back up and all the welds strengthened. Will fitting the Polyflex Engine Inserts (All 3) put added stress on these welds as a result of the added vibrations?

    Knock Sensor Error code P0325

    Just got back from my mechanic and he did all types of checks on it. The problem is now sorted, think it may have been just a 'dry' connection.

    Knock Sensor Error code P0325

    I plugged my OBD fault code reader in and just out of curiosity searched for any fault codes. No engine management lights have come on just did it to see if there were any. I was presented with P0325 which I googled and it pointed to the knock sensor. I have a Ktec Induction kit and Polyflex...
