1st.

Boost gauge sitting on "0" with the key in and not on and also on tick over , slap bang in the middle. Boosts fine and drives pefectly, the gauge goes up to around 9ish when opening it up. Clocks were taken out to have rings inserted could this be something as simple as a connection being knocked or moved?

 

Was checked on datascan and no faults were found. Gave a code 55.

 

No smoke either blue/white so was told it might be a boost leak. How do i find that out and what would it cost for someone to check that for me?

 

 

2nd.

How much to repair and spray a front strosek bumper (scuffs-spiders cracks-chips), spiders cracks on the wide archs and repair a dent in the high leval spoiler and respray that in a straight black and who is best to go to?

 

 

3rd.

Air con isnt working so might just need gassing but would need someone to check that over.

 

 

4th.

How much to refurb split rim alloys and paint the centres black the same as the car?

 

 

5th.

4 wheel allignment, who is best to go to and how much would it cost please.

 

 

Thanks for any help in advance :D

Yep. Yes that would cause that problem, as would temp sender, as would incorrect base idle, as would the hoses being wrong. Few things for you to sort there :D

Ok new temp yellow switch clip thingy sorts out code13.

 

Swap the turbo pipes which sorts out boost gauge.

 

Anything else? How would i sort the base idle or is that fixed with the yellow clip?

Base idle is sorted by disconnecting the idle valve and adjusting the revs to ~650rpm. Have a look in FAQ section Alfo did a write up ;)

Respray? See the helmet thread :rofl:

As much as i really want to ive not replied in there :D

I had my 4 wheel alignment done in Watford. The guy that does it in fact joined the forum but dosen't seem to post any more.

 

He has a web site that explains it all anyway.

Hope this helps.

 

If you need teh front camber adjusting though you will need shims at best or get replacement arms.

I suppose it depends on where you take it - and if you are keeping the same colour or changing...

 

I've spoken to our paint shop that do our vans & lorries and they reckon they can do it for about 800 (but thats coz its me) if i wanted to do it... they are up in reading.

 

so not only where you take it, what colours etc - but also who you know!!!

 

good luck!!

The colour would be straight black, the kit needs sanding down and respraying as its in pretty bad shape paint wise and a few minor repairs.

 

£800 isnt as bad as i thought so gives me an idea of what tocost up :)

 

Once again.... cheers hunnipie
