Thanks for the replies. Leeds is a bit far for me, wanted somewhere close. The classic show looks good might check that out. Cheers.

Hi all, Anyone know of any car shows or meets this weekend in the North west area? Wanna make the most of my long weekend. Cheers.

I might be after these. Will pm you after work

Are these Wheels still for sale? I have 18's on my MkII Octy that have minor cerb damage on i think 3 of them and a dink on the fourth. I was thinking of getting a refurb done on them but these wheels look awesome. My current wheels are the same style as Bluevrs2's wheels. I can pm you some pics if you wish. Regards, Greg.

I hope to be there also. Car is running perfect ever since the work you did on it .

I had to get my foot on the ratchet and socket to get the filter housing off! Whoever put it on last is a numpty. Anyway, first octy oil change complete, next discs and pads.

Yes thanks for the heads up martziniuk. I didnt put too much presure on with the Spanner and gave up in the end. Going out tomorrow to get 36mm Socket from Halfords with the trade card. and booke23 I think with how tight this filter housing is on, even if i could get a strap wrench around it i think it would slip. I should have had a look to see how to take the filter out before I started, you live and learn i guess. Thanks for the replies.

Still wont budge. Any tips?

If i get my oil change finished i will be heading over tomorrow.

Afternoon all. Hope your having the weather were having to day in Lincolnshire. Anyway to the problem im having... Doing an oil change on my 57 plate Octy II VRS petrol and all was going well until i came to remove the oil filter. I havent got a 36mm socket so im using an adjustable and i cant budge it for the life of me. It says 25nm on the filter and its way over that so my guess is the dealership Mechs have a-grollied it on, b-not put any oil on the seals or c- all of the above. The block is cold now so it shouldnt be an issue of heat. Anything im doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

I might pop down on the Sunday. Are there trade stands and the like?

welcome.

cool

ok couldnt wait till morning. It was the rear jet all blocked up. They are x2 metal jets in a little plastic housing so one into 2 jets. they are all blocked and correded up. Gonna get a replacment one next week as i have cleared this one but the spray isnt right. Mr rooney i bet this will fix yours too.
