well basically, i need to borrow tools off a mate this weekend then i will be .  but i have no garage , just a drive with an m3 and subaru on it so its been a bit hard. i work full time, (as u can see) lol get home at 6 so its pitch black !

 i didnt have the tools to get the head off , so i was a bit stuck. just got the bill £800  :smiley: great eh

plus well i only got the car last weekend , so on sunday we sort of looked under the bonnet and realised we had no chance when we didnt even know what was wrong with it to start with . .

but yeh this weekend will be hopefully ticking some problems off the list then i'll be a bit happier  :grin:

just being nosey to see if you are willing to get your hands dirty so to speak!

Was it just the repair to the head for the £800 or did they do anything else to it?

Tools are a problem if you dont have your own. Taken me years to build up a decent set and even then you keep seeing things to add or have to replace something.

Okay I'm done with hijacking your thread now Peaches :grin:
