Just wondering if any of you helpful people could offer any advice... I've got a 2004 BMW 530d (now out of warranty) with a seized turbo. It ran for no more than a minute when the turbo finally gave up, but had been smoking intermittently for a few miles. The crank is turning - feels a bit tight - but not seized and the intercooler is full of oil. Had quote in from a local specialist - £1530.00 for new turbo, flush intercooler and inspect/ flush downpipe. Problem is they still won't give me a definate answer on whether there's any bearing damage - saying they need to run it first. Anyone any experience with turbo failure on BM's? I asked about refurbing tu…

Thought I would start here as today saw the 'offical' start of the Cossy conversion! Done today,removed prop,tank,engine and cleaned the bay up a bit for painting. The pics!:cool: Soon ready for a trial fit of this,all decatted an' everything! I was hoping the Scorpio sender was going to fit my tank but no!-the sender resistance was wrong and the flange to big,so I came up with this 'hybrid'-my sender with the Scorp' pump fitted,sorted! Watch this space.....................................(again! LOL!)

Just had two shifty blokes come to the door trying to buy my car, cheeky fookers :shock: Driving a subaru estate, heard the car grumbling outside for a few minutes then the door went, old lady answered and bloke say's to her "I wanna buy the car" :( Good old bird she sees him off with a "Its not for sale" :tongue:, she did'nt even bother to call me to see the blokes but gut feeling is that I heard the scooby outside for a few minutes before the door bell went, so they had a good look around the zed. Think I'll have to sleep with one eye open tonight, with my baseball bat instead of the old lady :dance: Rant over

One of my work mates is after a turbo for an Astra GSI as the one he has taken off is proper fooked. He took it to Midland Turbo and they said the shaft has snapped :shock: and they can't get a replacement so it can only be binned. It's not his car it's one he's looking at for someone. He has found a second hand used one but it's £600 :eek: Does anyone know where he could get a replacement or maybe even an after market one from for less than silly money ? CheerZ Paul

Hey guys. Got a good mate in the UK who;s just happily purchased a 1999 model Mitsi Galant Said it goes friggin hard (keeping in mind his previouse car was an 1.6 Ltr Audi A4) Trying to get info from him but he's not up on car stuff so he's going to send me some engine bay pics. Anyway........... Just wondered if anyone knew of a good forum/club I could point him towards? He's in Kent I can just see him getting ripped by the first garage he walks into so yeah, want to point him in the right direction Cheers guys. PS: Cold in Perth today... well about 25C ;)

.A POSSE of Lady Godivas stripped for a bare-all ride in London yesterday. The fillies shed their clothes for the naked trot in the capital’s Hyde Park. The girls were plugging Brit romantic comedy Lady Godiva and raising cash for a cancer charity. You can see more sensational pics of the riders by clicking on the slideshow below. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article1185893.ece?slideshowPopup=true&articleId=1185893
