  1. No it isnt! Its just daft wasting money like that. If you do so little miles then get quantum longlife 3 5w30 for half that and run it for 2 years. Works out a quarter the cost? Wish I had the money to do that with. Ide use it for something else like but would be nice to have it.
  2. Yea but race car engins are on the edge and pushed all the time. But that price for 5l is shear madness.
  3. Are you A millionaire? Why waste your money on that whet you can get 20l of platinum from tps for about that?
  4. Yes the ones from the top between mount and block are stretch bolts. Need to be changed
  5. As raf said. Quantum longlife III 5w30 or Quantum Platinum 5w40 Variable or fixed respectivly. I personally dont and never have changed my oil the early. My octy went on longlife from new and always went 18k ish and when I removed the sump on 101k it was pritty good in there. If your gonna change that early use platinum as its about a tenner cheaper for 5l. Or get to tps and every so often they do deals on a 20l can lol Got my last one for well under 70 pound lol. Dont want to say actual cost tho but even at that its cheaper than anything else and the genuine stuff. Quantum is even longlife 4 rated for bmw too.
  6. Think thats why they took them back. They said I should order again if I still wanted them but on ordering there is no comment you can post so I can say I want the actual thing not a replacement. Juat a bit concerned ill get the same crap sent and have to go thru it all again. Might order it then send a msg to customer service straight away with the order number and say lemforder or nothing. We shall see
  7. I don't think it puts stress on the injectors as they will cope with 4 bar ne probs. its a way of getting more fuel in. the ECU controls the time the injectors are open and the more preasure behind them means more fuel goes thru. that's all so the ecu is programmed for a 3 bar like std so it is opening the injectors for say a second as it thinks its sending in say 10cc of fuel in that time with the 3car of preasure where actually its sending in 15cc of fuel as you have a 4 bar FPR. I don't know the actual figures that's just an eg. basically its overfueling. the ECU will be able to adjust to an extent but it wont sort it out correctly hence why you need it mapping for the FPR.
  8. cheers fellas. I sent them back. the bolts look like ones from toolstation same as the washers. Lemforder are Skoda OEM parts so Ill stick with that. hope they get it right this time if not Ill just go to TPS. Just I don't like bothering them down there as I feel like I not sposed to go in lol. it needs to be as skoda intended ie the lemforder kit. This is coming from someone that kicked off when a garage used a cable tie on the CV boot lol n not the proper clamps like were in the kit.
  9. Could but would take some work and alot of fettling so would prob be pita

  12. I ordered some ball joints from a site that listed the Lemforder ball joints for my Fabia. the listing said Left and Right. so I ordered 2. both are the same and for one side so I found the other listing and ordered another 2 for the other side again making sure they were Lemforder as I like to keep things the same on each side. Now this site sent me some random stuff. notice the difference in the pic: Now would you accept the one on the right when you had ordered a Lemforder kit like the one on the Left? apparently its in their Ts & Cs that they can change the items for something of the same quality. HA that's a laugh done look the same quality to me. thoughts? lol
  13. it will because it is putting a lot more fuel in than its sposed to.
  14. if your putting the J on get it mapped for it, but with mapping the std valve can be made to do the same. the J valve is off really old audis. it basically overboosts the motor. it retards the signals going to the ecu so doesn't open the waste gate or dv as early as the std one. made my car run like poo! std all the way
  15. never ran it mate. got all parts then just before she was finished I changed my mind and lost interest so started stripping her. LCR pump I had mate went with one of the Hybrids I had.
  16. R32 seats SOLD. Yea just waiting on a reply from another member then Ill pm you mate

  19. Parcel Shelf is pretty mint drivers door is too but I cant let that go till I sell the tings I have in the car as it needs to stay sealed up. rear bench is ok tbh depends how bad yours is. trim and ashtray is mint. Still got the front bumper too, its in the mods thread iirc, new milotec grills in it and good LCR splitter. cant take the grills off and sell sep as the brackets have just gone on and grills are still wrapped up. No mate sorry its the std octy cup holder from the centre between seats? Cheers Raf ;-) KK mate cheers ;-) Cheers Woody lol, yea was gonna happen I spose, too much stuff on her to return to std plus I just don't want to see her on the road with someone else who might not look after her the same. Oh well. Ill have a look for your threads mate lol, Wheels are LCR ronals. the Spiders went ages ago and the TD Pro Race 1.2 I sold to a lad called wayne who has sold on again, think they are still floating about on a members car. Sorry mate, Std brakes are on my Fabia. I have sets but I want too have a go at refurbing them first as the ones on my car are starting to stick I think. Right I am back now, please pm me if you need anything, and I am open to reasonable offers too. I want things gone. Mods are in another thread. billy
