If they are Gragger uhp they only have about 7 or 8 mm new so not very worn. Put them on the front and match new rears.

Which General Grabbers do you have?

Should it not turn regardless? Siezed aircon pump?

Do not try this at home.

If the heads been done I guess its a 1.8. With no paper work to show what was actually done when the head went run away.

looks right.

Depends on the year of your car and if the long hose has a sensor.

Is it not a little odd that the DVLA would have a record of two milages just 8 weeks apart? Checking the milage from MOT's is not fool proof either, it relys on the tester inputing the correct milage. The year before last the tester added 10,000 miles to my bike and I only noticed at its next one.

Its not your choice of car that the problem, its your choice of garage.

The drone is possibly just down to the uneven wear on your tyres, change them and get the tracking checked or just keep an eye on the wear. Since its new to you the history of the tyre is unknown, it may have been moved from a different position or even have been a part worn.

Before you throw money away on sudo- performance parts, expensive filters that will do squat, wait till you have had it a bit to find out what you really need to spend money on. Service it with cheaper standard parts first.

They usually rot from the inside out, slosh some old engine oil aroud inside before you fit it.

Why would the VCU wear one front tyre? Cheap tyres, or wheel alignment.

Fuel economy will be about the same, seat do fold flat. Dont listen to the negative "banter". Plenty of good ones out there, helps if you know what you're looking at and handy with a spanner is essential to avoid rip off garage bills, like any car.

Put the new ones on the back and I think 80000 miles might be a bit unrealistic.

^ Likewise.

^ As above. Do or get someone to do a leak back test. Or you could clamp of the return pipe to the tank for a brief moment as you try to start from hot to confirm.

Odd combination of things all going at once. Is someone guessing at the fault?

My point was that with such a small quantiy of fuel in the tank you cant expect it to give an exact reading.

£970 sounds like a big price but for three years service stamps and peace of mind on warranty claims for an 18 month old car you should go for it. If you have a problem in the future it could cost a lot more.
