  1. See my thread over on the project thread. I used a Bissel with their solution and it pulled a lot out. But there are still faint grey stains on the cream /grey trim. Not infallible but a lot easier than messing with hog clips!
  2. low revs means little work. In gear for the same decline means higher revs and more energy lost due to heat, noise etc Autumn doesn't help. More people back at work, more stop start, denser cooler air so more drag. Does the anti waxing chemicals in Winter diesel affect fuel economy?
  3. If there is zero fuel, why does the engine keep combusting?
  4. Forgot to say decay speed in neutral approaching a slower speed zone, but you'll need to anticipate. Your theory doesn't bear up against my stats when I used to do this. Always drive in warm summer air is another one ;-)
  5. Cruise in neutral down hills, but make sure you keep your speed up and consistent. Got 10% extra when commuting through the Cotswolds.
  6. If you check the project forum, you'll see why I really like my car again. A small amount of well planned money can get it back to a great mechanical and cosmetic condition. Yes it will cost, but far less than £xxx pcm for the next three years on a PCP or loan. Great post PB :-)
  7. Assume pulleys and wires not fooked (like mine were last year)?
  8. Any difference with running on new oil? You dirty man!
  9. I thought fellow brisky Tech1e fitted them?
  10. Chap - got a link? I checked your content via the user CP and can't see anything. Ta muchly BR
  11. Gumtree are based in Richmond opposite the train station in serviced offices. They're all sales people generating revenue for ad space. As you say, they don't deliver cars ;-)
  12. Civic 2.2D Type S almost made my look at short list last month as did the C30. Funny I also considered the RX8 for a while.
  13. Erm I'd get it looked at sooner. If the patient is ill, treat sooner and don't make it fatal. :-)
