ah I'll read the whole thread instead of scanning it next time :embarassed:

lol no worries  :smiley:

straws being clutched at my good man,  :grin: :grin: :grin:

and mine was fixed for free by the very nice man remember  :kiss:

i don't do straw clutching - i work with FACTS  :tongue: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: 

FACT - i didn't need to call the AA or RAC
FACT - the car was still driveable albeit with reduced power and a smoke screen

 :tongue:

hopefully it should be good for another 99842 miles  :lipsrsealed:

technically speaking any fault on a car is a breakdown even if it's still driveable,  :wink:


Forget cambelt, 4 wheel alignment etc etc

This should be your next mod  :laugh:

car was still driveable so not technically a breakdown  :tongue:  i've had the hoses pop off before but this time all that torque smashed the EGR housing - fecking stupid clip system

There a pain the arse  :angry:

hopefully it should be good for another 99842 miles  :lipsrsealed:

Am catching you up  :sad:
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...
