i dont know what you mean MarkDerby? may be me being a bit thick :) And Blackpool-Z32 the wheel nuts are new but the noise was there both and after new nuts being fitted, I have checked the back plate and it all seems clear plus they are the standard brakes so should have ampal clearance. And there is no sipgot rings in place could it be these missing cause the noise?

What I have been up to on a bank holiday
I then got the car in on the ramp and got it all dried off and started machine polishing with Meg's 105 & 205. The paint wasn't to bad and i did try and get some pictures before but not to easy on a white car! After machine polishing I then gave it a quick polish by hand (i know i dont need to but I prefer to) and then a coat of FK1000P. even gave the inside a quick hoover So after 6 hours it was finished

What I have been up to on a bank holiday
Well as i live in Wales a hose pipe ban is a thing of myths and legends! :lol: Anyway i was asked to clean A Renault Clio Sport last week so thought i would take advantage of an empty MOT ramp! Not to many before pics as it was p*****g down all day. As the the car was after a snow foam and a good wash. Thought i would try my recently bought Iron X surprised with the amount of fall out on the car After a good scrub with a MF cloth then a good rinse off i then used my Sonus Clay bar

-
Anyone else been to halfords?
Its buy one get one free on all cleaning chemicals. No cloths and pads etc but all polish's, window cleaner's etc. If you are after some the autoglym and meguairs stuff is good would recomend the Autoglym Super Resin Polish followed by the Autoglym HD wax. Will give you a nice shinny zed. Wax is a bit pricey but you get 2 for £44.99 and they are normally £30 each plus on ebay buy 2 and sell one on! :lol: ends monday
