  1. I think for me it depends on what happened at close of sale. So did they lead you to believe you could have an agreed value of whatever you wanted or did they tell you they'd look into what they'd be willing to agree etc?
  2. Is it an aftermarket steering wheel?
  3. Have you checked your levels?
  4. You might want to look at my thread 'cylinder down'. Would be worth getting it checked out ASAP mate. Might be worth getting a garage with a block tester to do a quick check. You might just have a water leak or something
  5. What makes you think that mark. Shame you don't know about all the trouble I had with my first zed with you being so new lol. Just sickened me
  6. Graveyard in the sky lol:lol:
  7. I am mate. The car has already gone
  8. Yeh I gathered when I saw all the water coming out of the cylinder. Gutted
  9. Sorry, I have another question. If the timing is a tooth out (jeffTT believe it might be), could that cause a bank to show different to the other? It still hits 15° but CAS is across to the right
  10. 9 bar is pretty much 130 psi. Ill have to try and find out How expensive would the rebuild be. Wouldn't the numbers come up though if the engine was hot
  11. I still have a coolant leak mate and need a new top rad pipe (ordered one today but it'll take about a week)
  12. I also had a lick and found it very very sweet
  13. Compression test done (on a cold engine), I've put it in order that I did the test and I've taken a picture of each result Cylinder followed by the result: 4 - 9 bar 2 - 9.5 bar 6 - 9.5 bar 1 - 11 bar 3 - 12 bar 5 - 11 bar
  14. Can one of you confirm the correct way to do the compression test too? Obviously I take off the coil packs and the plugs, remove the balance bar. Throttle fully open. Electrics wise, is it the CaS I need to unplug? Also anything else I need to unplug and remove etc or am I pretty much where I need to be on this
  15. I'm not that thirsty lol. So is it possibly head gasket then? I will be doing a compression test but think the battery might need charging a bit first
  16. Well it looks like a slightly red colour. Would a similar thing happen on another cylinder without any problems and would it just be fuel?
  17. Definitely the cylinder spitting:
  18. Am I right in thinking I need to do the test when the engine is warm/up to temp? As that's gonna be hard wi the rad hose pissing out
  19. Ill do the test when I get the time. It wouldn't have been quicker because I haven't been at home apart from the 20 minutes it took. I would try it again but the top rad pipe is pissing all over with the engine on and it's gonna take at least 4 days to get a new one. Mikey the rad didn't have the cap off
  20. No as it wasn't wet when I started, that water would be blue too
  21. Yeah it was a little wet mate. The water/antifreeze looked like it was on the plenum next to the where the coilpacks go. I'm notompletely sure it it came out of the cylinder tho
  22. Hi mate, there's a couple of videos on the first past if that helps for the amount of smoke
