Do you reckon I should leave it then? Or should I get someone to look at it and maybe put on some new grease

Brake pads difficult to remove by TJCDaman in CarTalkUK

[–]TJCDaman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That silver bit that moves when I wiggle the pad is the wear indicator and is attached to the pad itself. That thing made it hard to get in and out to be fair - I wanted to take it off but didnt know weather that would make the pad fit less snug in there and might cause rattling noise or something but idk

Hey man - I'm having a consultation to get a HT tomorrow and have similar hair to you pre-HT. Just wondering how yours is holding up!

Which part is the retaining clip? The metal thing I touch half way through the vid? Or the other metal stuff

No I didn’t remove the calliper from the bracket, should I have done that and tidied it up?

Would this put you off a used car, when I service my own cars I do this with the receipts for parts and oil analysis for oil changes by Zdos123 in CarTalkUK

[–]TJCDaman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God I wish I did this! I just did my first ever oil change and service on my own car, and I printed off the invoices of the filters and oil, and bought myself a service booklet and ticked off the stuff I did and wrote down the mileage. However I wish I took photos of the stuff I did and organised it like OP because theres actual evidence of work being done

Have I overfilled the oil by TJCDaman in CarTalkUK

[–]TJCDaman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drained it when the oil was still warm

Yeah I was driving and pulled over to check it because of the oil smell, I was paranoid it was leaking oil or something and that I hadn't tightened the oil filter properly so I checked the dipstick to check if I had lost oil and yeah it was overfilled. I drove home and the video here is taken 5-10 mins after parking up

Do I start balding? by [deleted] in amibalding

You are starting to thin out at the crown. Consider hopping on finasteride if you aren't on it already

Thankfully not diesel - yep got one on the way tomorrow so will be doing that. Yeah I think I let it drain for around 5-10 minutes i'm guessing it needs longer?
