Met up with Mike (Prelude91)

What's wrong with the Corrado matey?

Bashed Sump + sump plug (new Sump required)
Leaking Radiator (new radiator)
Wobbly exhaust (need to secure)
Coilovers (all need heighten - but garage got no C-Spanner to adjust)
4 wheel align (as the front wheels are angled for tracking racing?)
Lamda sensor gone (£100+ plus fitting)
Idle Speed regulation (dodgy)

So car will continue to stall dangerously and worn inside of front tyres and slice into rear tyres until the above is fixed.....ordering parts and fixing it within next week....

well
Luke couldn't start again today, so gave the STARTER MOTOR a few whacks - and its fine again
- STILL, Luke s SAFER than the German STALLING at almost every approaching junction


Have booked Luke in garage (another) end-Feb for the following:
1. Trouble shoot the oil leak
2. Refurb the starter motor
3. Rev ocassionally stills yo-yo in the mornings
4. There is a scraping noise when I brake in the rear nearside (brake drums)????

Wayne what way are you turning the key when you try to start it?

The correct way?

You desperately need to get your rear pads changed. And I think the hunting at tickover is the IACV, or whatever it's called.

Yes Mike - actually think i have NO rear pads at all?!!!! Eeeek!

On a mini tour in Chichester, Portsmouth.

Driven 300+ miles with NO rear pads at all - SCREECHING and alloys HOT !!!


300 miles away from home
And do not want to wait til home nor want any local garage!

Does anyone know any Honda specialist in the area?

Found one in Southampton?


One in Fleet?

Mike

Let us know whether the Gliptone stuff are better than the Megs!

[prelude91]

Applied gliptone this p.m. I'll let you know how it compares. Thanks for supplying sample

If your alloys are hot I'd be inclined to say you've got sticking calipers mate, the worn out pads could be a result of that.

Most indy garages should be able to do rear pads matey. If your calipers are sticking you'll need to get them rebuilt at some point though.
