57 fucking quid for 4 plugs,air and oil filter. Still has a brief flat spot but no pulsing at low throttle. After the holiday it's having fuel filter and rocker gasket.

The 2.0 tdci/hdi had the typical injector and turbo issues. I was talking to my wife about it the other day because we were talking about fuel economy, insurance and when renewal is due. The general consensus seems to be the diesel does around 8 mpg better than mine and we were discussing if it's ac...

The plan is to get all filters,plugs and oil changed. Plugs can be had for 30 quid and I've got a new bottle of oil in the workshop to use but with 200 quid spent on tyres and takeaway being a bit dry the past few weeks it's took its toll. Costs me nearly 240 a month for tax and insurance before the...
