davep-uk 01-28-2006 11:30 AM

hmmmmm. that was too early on a saturday morning for me to be paying attention properly.

Fitted the DEPO's today..... FCUKING KNIGHTMARE, ended up using the Avo Meter to work out what was what.

Worst bit at the end of it all my battery was flat! on charge atm!

other than that, they look good. pics to follow.....

Nigel in Barnstaple N.Devon. no farmer or backwards jokes, i grew up on the london /(ahem) essex borders. Inside the m25 is london right?

No Ti as yet, but the a4's going in the trader tonight.

stormos 01-28-2006 09:21 PM

a4's are sweet cars, set of 19"'s and your on the way.....

btw... WELCOME!

nigeltee 01-28-2006 10:30 PM

yeah, when i bought it, i was gonna lower it, fit updated lights , xenons, oh, and chip it (easy 180 - 190 brake). Nice.....

But then it needed a new turbo (partially replaced under warranty) then the day after i got that back the cat fell off!:mad: (came apart from the new turbo) Again replaced under warranty. AND THEN, i had soaking wet carpet in the drivers and rear drivers side footwells. AAAAARGGGGH!

Not a pleasant 6 months ownership and i have had enough.

Apart from that, they are good.

nigeltee 01-28-2006 10:31 PM

what a rant. sorry. just hit a raw nerve.......

stormos 01-28-2006 11:30 PM

heh.

when i first got my compact i took it for a service and it needed:

new rear springs,
front ball joints,
rear subframe mounts,
new headlight washers,
abs sensor.
new rear brake cylinders and adjusters,
exhaust,
oh.... and the air bag light is on.

but its an ongoing project so to speak.....

davep-uk 01-29-2006 11:11 AM

so Stomos, fitting the depo's was a bitch? hmmmm do i really want them?

stormos 01-29-2006 11:54 AM

it was only a bitch cos i am fcukin useless ;)

hence i usually use a garage ;)

going to attempt to fit the stoneguard today and a new indicator bulb. man i am doomed!

worst bit is i need to get the headlight beams adjusted asap as they are definetly out. garage tomorrow with any luck...

However, they do look "THE ****" and i LOVE 'EM!

cali-ti 01-29-2006 03:30 PM

geez ... taking it to a shop to get the headlights adjusted? how are you EVER going to rebuild and install those new brakes? ;)

stormos 01-29-2006 04:00 PM

brakes i'll rebuild, but a shop will do the final install of the parts. I would NEVER touch the braking system myself as i know it'd fail....
