Hi Phil, first of all well done on getting it back on line - I'm sure we're all glad you're back :jump: With regard to subscription etc, I think it's worth consideringthe audience. The strength of this community is the depth of experience of the community and the (generally) helpful support and answ...

Hi Marcin - welcome to the fold! I had two C5's before I got my C7 and there is a world of difference (improvement) IMHO. Mine is a daily runner and has done over 180K miles - it's a 2014 model like yours. Not really had many problems (mine is looked after mainly by MRC Tuning) though the fact is th...

Looks good - nice spec - the only thing I'd consider is putting Creamic Brakes on when the current discs/pad are worn out

Have lots of fun - Oh, and a trip to MRC would mean even more fun

happy New Year!

Dave

Happy Christmas - and welcome back!!

IMHO the best 6's have been the odd numbered ones (C5 and C7). C6 didn't cut it for me, and C8 is simply too big!!

Whatever you get, enjoy it for many years to come

Dave

Hi - yes, well worth doing. Mine was last done at 135K miles so now I'm on 181K Miles I guess I'll be forking out again!

The nature of posts on any of the forums here cahnges over time. They start out being posts from the rich few who can afford the new models with plenty of "discovereies of things to like/dislike. :kissmyrings: Then after about 3 years the tone changes as the second hand models are about 50% of the n...

Do you have Air suspension or are you on DRC (Performace Pack) - if the latter then tow-bar can't be fitted.

Quick update to close this out. Car in this week, front end off, PCV replaced and water pump done at same time as the front was off. Also full service incl new plugs. Back on the Dyno for a tweak and sure enough, there were all 700 horses back in the stable! :jump_clap: :jump: :boots: :rocker: That ...

Something else nice lurkig in the background too!!

Thanks - useful update

My front end is coming off shortly to replace the PCV and MRC had already said they'd replace the coolant pump as a precaution - but then mine has done 175K miles!

Cheers

Dave

Still on original discs and pads - I think last MOT said pads 20% worn!

Dave

Hi all - I'm now up to 175K miles (280K Kms) and still as good as new - maybe I should try harder when stopping!! Honestly I wouldn't go back to the old steel brakes etc if you paid me - ceramics are just "fit and forget". :boots: And yes there can be noise at relatively light breaking and low speed...

Wrong forum mate - you need the C6 forum - most on here are V8 folk!.
Good luck with your project

OK - second day at MRC. LP fuel pump duly changed out and car onto Dyno. First observaton was that my map was an early one so Doug did a full update and also on the box. After a lot of tweaking we found that we were still 50 or so HP short, and we get quite a lot of oil smoke at WOT, and have conclu...

Facebook is good for general chatter, but I'd come here every time for experienced advice every time.
