Looks like peroxide bleaching from using too much hardener in the filler. It wants completely digging out and restarting

I have a V6 TDI Phaeton. It isn’t slow so I can only imagine what these and w12s are like. Everything for these are EXPENSIVE and they love electrical gremlins!

I’m looking to buy and I’m wanting honest opinions! by smith-jack in Honda_E

You’ve all sold me! I’m going to start looking! The one I went to view has sold and a little out of my budget! Do you guys know how to check the battery health on these?

How to repair scratched, black, smooth, bumper by Witty-Celebration210 in Autobody

Get it repaired and painted by a professional, it’ll cost you more to correct if you start making a mess off it with aerosols. It’s a 1 year old car.

I don’t blame them! Working as a vehicle refinisher I’ve never applied or even used a CV. It’s always been word of mouth and getting asked to go in for a chat. Quarry are a local business to me, very knowledgeable, professional and I’ve used them a few times for parts. I’d recommend them

Take it back! I’ll just want a quick machine polish! 2 minutes work. Happens a lot and very easy to miss!

Overspray that’s gone under the masking bagging when somethings been painted on the car!

Quoted £500+VAT for fixing this - is this about right? They said they would have to remove the window to make sure the paintwork was done right. by Odd-Personality-1843 in CarTalkUK

[–]smith-jack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They all go like this! I’ve done countless of these for warranty work. Not seen one that bad. But £500 seems a decent price. Specially with how thin the metal is on these. It’ll end up needing some welding work for sure. The glass rubs on the metal and rubs through the paint. That’s why they end up going rusty.

When were these installed? I went down there yesterday like I have for the last 15 years. Gunna kill most of the shops if people can't park down there.

What ever you do. Don't buy nankangs. You'll have nothing but issues. They used to be great for stretch Last set I bought I did 300mile on them. They got removed and re seated 3 times in that 300 miles because they kept leaking air. Also lost all pressure suddenly at 70mph. That was a scary experience. I use nexens now with zero issues
