I guess that is very frustrating, but try to look at it as you are investing in your future. Hopefully giving everything enough time now, will mean a much better and brighter future for you and your family. Take care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-400 Posted October 18, 2023 Author Share Posted October 18, 2023 Bought myself a rear side panel, couldn't let it go... 50 Euro's. Not new but usable. Lucky the seller putted it in my Insignia.

H-400 Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 (edited) Sometimes when I see a part passing by on web-shops and it is so cheap I can't let it go. Like the old type waterpump on this pic: bought it from a nice lady who had once an Ascona, original GM pump with carefully packed gasket 20€... The new type pump 40€. But sometimes i'v got to be more carefully where I put my parts. I'm sure I'v got a head gasket cause I take it with me to France every year, but I bought very cheap another head set (Reinz) cause I don't find it anymore. Maybe behind the back seat of the GSI between the fuel reservior?? Project images are available to Club Members Only, Click to become an OMOC Member.

After our trip to the UK I found a nice place to lay the new head gasket set, above a cupboard just under the ceiling. And I noticed there is already something there: The lost head gasket... Today: Fitted a new silent block, looks like my car is eating them: Project images are available to Club Members Only, Click to become an OMOC Member. And at the latest MOT they noticed I had some play on my left top wishbone, but because they noticed the car was well maintained they just gave an advisory. And yes this new bolt/nut needed some attention: Project images are available to Club Members Only, Click to become an OMOC Member. The self locking nut feels not that tight and I could tighten it a lot more(65 Nm). Gonna check this in the future, they came from Edelschmiede so they are new. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessopia74 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 That is always the problem with putting items in a ‘safe’ location, they are too safe and never found until you do not need them mate 🤣 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealExile Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 I probably have about 6 13mm spare sockets in 'safe places' they will turn up one day 🤣 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
