Not just some old place at the side of the road then!

Actually is a very cool thing to 'name drop' - if you can do that about tracks! (so no offence intended LG)

What a lovely forum this place can be - such helpful people

I've got a few jobs which I need help with such as getting my rear bumper straight - perhaps I should cry out for help too?

 

I think you should, a "damsel in distress" will work wonders.

Perhaps you can pretend my car is yours while you're at it - it needs a lot doing...

 

If you can get yourself to the next Surrey meet, I'll take a look

 

I’m always wary of taking my wheels off.
Ever since seeing a wheel fall off a mini where the driver hadn’t done it up tight enough I’ve been paranoid about doing the same thing.

I need to go and buy a big old toque wrench.

 

Thanks Loftus - I'll see. It's not an urgent one, but has bugged me for ages!

 

Sometimes I wish I wasn't called Defiant!! ha ha

Thank you so much for these responses. Thanks Loftus, trouble is I teach in a boarding school and it will be first weekend back, will need to take the boarders out bowling etc. so I might not be able to get to your generous offer.

Would like to re-iterate how great it is to have this sort of response.

Cheers all,

 

I will gladly help if needed, I am in Rochford, Essex.

Either way, whoever helps with your job, dont forget the magic tools for Honda discs and pads (at the front at least)

Impact driver and G clamp.

I have never come across brake discs screws on a Honda that have simply unscrewed, they are always seized in and they all need the life beaten and twisted out of em with the impact driver.

Other than that, bit of copper/moly grease for the pad surfaces and caliper sliders (very important) and bobs your uncle.

Might be worth a fluid bleed too....

 

I'm in Watford if that helps....i did my old S2000 front brake pads/discs and calipers last month....easy about an hours work....
