  7. Filling with Silicone does the trick & firms them up no end, Nice & Cheap too Dean
  8. You can't beat air impact tools for stubborn Bits Dean
  9. I can't definatively say from memory but if you get both then you are covered, Plus you will always use a 17 in the future as it is a more main stream size .. Dean
  10. A 17mm will fit & undo them, You may struggle to find someone on the street (As such) that stocks a 16mm Swan neck / Offset spanner Dean
  11. What year ? Engine Type ? Egr valve could be causing the hunting .. As for the coolant, if there are defo no leaks then your looking at head gasket .. Time to get a good garage to do a coolant pressure test & combustion leak test Etc. This will confirm .. As for the hiss when removing the cap, If the car is warm, you will definately get that any way, sometimes still appears on a cold/cool engine. I would attempt to clean the Egr first & see if it gets better. Dean
  12. That is what i thought ... Until i went to buy another. I looked at a 57 plate & the first thing i did was to pop off the engine cover to check the inlet manifold type .. Low & behold.. The link bar was missing all together & it had the old style manifold, Trying to explain this to the seller, that there should be a bar ontop that links the swirl valve's from the one motorised swirl valve ... He said well i have another one over here .. He did but it was a 120, "different engine mate" Well then had to explain the difference there ... Needless to say , I walked away .... Some of the Later Saab Tid Models still have the older type manifold also, I looked at a few of those as an alternative... Dean
  13. Some post 06 150 Models still had the dodgey inlet manifold, The one where the inlet swirl valve's gunged up & the link bar on the top then falls off .. Approx £500 for all parts & labour (Non vauxhall) As said.. Dmf's, Egr's, Dpf Software issue's pre 06 150 Model's, rear trailing Arms, Steering rack Play (Higher Mileage cars)... Nice, well speced car if you go for the Design or Elite badge... 120 is defo more trouble free & when mapped & run against a mapped 150 rolling, There is very little in it .... Here's my 150 Estate before i sold it & after spending £££'s Dean
  14. I bet some people might even hide their number plates behind Artics Dean
  15. There is not a little bit of rust / grime / dirt behind one of the newly fitted discs is there ? Meaning that it is not fitting flush/flat... Check for the same behind one of the alloy's.. or maybe something really simple .. Seeing as you can drive through it ... As the wheels for whatever reason, just need a re-balance .. Dean
