Let us know,

What car,
What went wrong,
How much it cost,
Did you do it yourself or other?

Me;

Eunos Roadster 1.6,
Front brake pads,
£22 EBC pads,
Fitted them myself.


Over to you. smile

A 5 foot tall girl who sits too close to the wheel for even a 5 foot tall girl drove us drunks home in my 928. The electric seat packed up rendering it literally undriveable.

Fixed itself about a week later, cost $0.

Turbo shaft broke, engine ingested turbo parts, deceased rapidly. Cost, new car. Paid for by breaking the old one, which was a result as the new car is far better.
