Took mine to Austec on Saturday so probably saw yours. Mind you it's not looking good. New disks/pads new top O/S wishbone oil presure sender is leaking and sump gasket/seal is weeping. Waiting for mike to give me the call back so that I can go Oh well, nature of the beast as they say.

Sorry to hear that mate... I'll have a new sump gasket soon aswell..once they put the sump back on.
Mr Credit card is getting a good beating at the moment.. Never mind a... I told the Mrs that it was either the ACT bits ..or I go and spend more than I can afford on a Cerb or Tuscan... Good financial sense I think..she didn't seem to agree.. Thought anything more than £90 (she has a fiesta) for a service, is too much to spend on a car... Not too sure how long the ACT bits and the chip will keep me happy before I need to go for a different car....watch this space.
