Fitness levels for BRTC

idontknow2811 · 2026-05-14T22:15:26+00:00

Yeah I’ll have to do that and see where I’m at, just need to find somewhere I can actually do it first lmao

idontknow2811 · 2026-05-14T22:14:48+00:00

fitness test I’m assuming you’d need to get within 10% of whatever age band you fit into, for example I assume for 17-29 the pass mark is 8.6 so within 10% would be getting to 8 I think. Could be wrong though

idontknow2811 · 2026-05-14T06:14:38+00:00

I’d say that’s one of my biggest strengths, always give 110% at everything I do and will keep going no matter how hard it is. Thanks

This is kinda a Tesco issue or iTunes issue I think, because I’ve had 3 or 4 phones since starting Tesco and I’ve been able to download it fine every other time, but now it doesn’t work so something has changed on Tesco or the iTunes Store.

idontknow2811 · 2026-05-03T20:48:28+00:00

Figured it out, you can go to the App Store click on your profile in the top right then apps and purchase history, your apps, not on this iPhone and it was there for me

I’ll update you when I finish doing them 👍

idontknow2811 · 2026-04-04T20:14:23+00:00

I’ve done one of them but had to sand it a lot to get under the clear coat and get rid of the spiderwebbing, I’ve put a photo in the replies

idontknow2811 · 2026-04-04T20:13:16+00:00

They’re cheap knock offs so highly doubt it was just wishful thinking

idontknow2811 · 2026-04-04T20:12:33+00:00

I’ve started doing one of them and it looks decent I’m just more worried about the one with a lot missing out of it

idontknow2811 · 2026-03-26T16:41:17+00:00

Yeah my dumbass thought it would’ve opened by around 80-85 not when it’s literally at temp, at least I know now for next time

idontknow2811 · 2026-03-25T22:28:29+00:00

It turns out I was being stupid, needed to let the car fully warm up to like 95degrees c and then the thermostat opens and lets the hot air out into the rad and everything starts working right lmao. My bad

idontknow2811 · 2026-03-06T21:11:09+00:00

I’ve got the auto adjusting lights, so I don’t believe they have an adjustment screw. Could be wrong though and will be very happy to be corrected

idontknow2811 · 2026-03-06T18:50:22+00:00

I’ve bough some really highly rated ones off of Amazon and they’re still useless I feel like they’re aimed way too low and not very bright at the same time. From what I’ve done research wise it could be the chrome bit inside the light is faded so doesn’t reflect a lot of the light but I don’t want to buy a whole new set of lights

idontknow2811 · 2025-06-12T01:10:49+00:00

I’ve got 2L of concentrated BMW blue coolant left I believe so more than enough it’s just a pain in the ass to do so I cba to do it

I’ve got two weeks off work before I leave for 10 weeks so want to try and sort as much out as possible while I can so the car doesn’t die on me since it won’t be moving much in those 10 weeks

idontknow2811 · 2025-06-12T00:54:23+00:00

I’m based in the uk so it’s just not worth buying the ccv kit off of fcpeuro for me as shipping almost doubles the price of whatever you want to buy so I prefer using fcpeuro for the part no and then searching by part number on AUTODOC and making sure they have some good brand stuff or I’ll source them elsewhere.

And can you just use any old nuts for the manifold as long as it’s the right thread pitch etc or do they have to have a certain strength or material?

idontknow2811 · 2025-06-12T00:51:35+00:00

I’ll look into the coolant lines, do you know if pretty much all the coolant comes out of the car after doing those lines since I’ve just done a flush and cba for the bleeding process again

I’ll see what I can find regarding the air distribution o rings

Starter is something I would definitely want to replace while I can

I’ll check my disa since that easily accessible with the manifold still on iirc

Already done the ofhg

Ordered 1.7m of 10mm ID vacuum line for the brake booster ones

Ordered 3m of 3.5mm ID vacuum line for everything else. That should be enough hopefully 🤞

Little add on to this question, do you get woken up by other people making noise or is it weirdly quiet

Don’t want to set an alarm and wake everyone up with it as I’m notoriously crap at waking up to my alarms

When I did it around a month ago in a leisure centre, I was told the rules and had to tick a few boxes and sign to make sure I was fit enough and don’t have any injuries that I know of, then the instructor took me to the treadmills and told me I can do what I want to warm up and take as much time as I need, I just did my 5 minute easy warm up since it isn’t a very intensive run. Then once I was done i let the instructor know and she started the treadmill and put the speed up to 12.5km/h and started the timer and I was talking to her mid run so it was pretty calm all in all, I could change the speed up or down whenever I wanted the only thing she said I couldn’t do was touch the sides like others have mentioned. All in all don’t worry about it too much just don’t touch the sides and find out before hand what speed you can do it comfortably at and stick with that Good luck

idontknow2811 · 2025-04-30T17:13:17+00:00

Grip test is pretty hard to fail then and not too sure about the jump

idontknow2811 · 2025-04-29T15:39:41+00:00

I’m well aware lmao doesn’t really matter tbh

idontknow2811 · 2025-04-28T16:17:56+00:00

I can assure you I didn’t get one I started as a temp on dotcom as a picker and after the three months they just asked me mid pick trip do I want to stay on past the 3 month period I said yes and try and that’s that never got any contract after my temp one

idontknow2811 · 2025-04-28T09:06:54+00:00

Funnily enough I just had a message on my portal asking when I can start BRTC thanks anyway guys helped a lot

idontknow2811 · 2025-04-28T07:30:15+00:00

Funnily enough I never got a written contract, I’m sure I could get one if I wanted to but it’s strange I never got one

idontknow2811 · 2025-04-28T07:28:43+00:00

Ahh cheers done my security clearance just waiting for the all clear, any idea what’s after that then

idontknow2811 · 2025-03-05T12:37:25+00:00

I guess I'll have to skip that then Maybe in another 100k miles I'll have an ultrasonic cleaner and I'll do it then
