And Grizz wins the Chocolate yea

[R56WUF]

No massive bang, symptoms almost like a coil pack failure and no warning lights. Switched it off as I was in traffic and wouldn’t start again.

Waiting on final damage findings and then look to get it sorted. Once I have Grizz’s findings then I will research any possible upgrades. Waiting for a couple of US specialists to respond to messages from today.

It will be done once and done properly

I just need to know who the four gearbox votes were from and then can arrange for chocolate bars to be sent!

[R56WUF]

There were only four gearbox votes yesterday so someone is at it

[R56WUF]

And to save anyone making the suggestion I won’t be doing a manual conversion. I would have liked to explore an S Tronic gearbox but Grizz has advised that it won’t fit.

[R56WUF]

Oh, one more thing, I have no interest in buying any spares from Latvia!

Page two, I winz, giz chocolate?

[R56WUF]

Yep, you’re definitely one of the winners! PM me the address and it may be there before Christmas!

[Mr Footlong]

Don't worry about it dude, you have bigger things to worry about forking out for. Glad the problem was found, sorry it is as <beep> as it is....

Interested to see how things turn out, as I have a spare TC sitting here that I need to get uprated for when mine eventually dies, then uprate the turbos at the same time and god knows what else, not that I even really drive her these days....

[ahoooga]

So I was right with DRC being the fault then ?, the sonic harmonics and vibrations caused by DRC loosened the bolts ? Maybe Dr Who with her sonic screwdriver could fix it ? But I agree you have larger issues than sending Chocolate out.

[R56WUF]

Thanks chaps

It’s a car. It will get fixed. I will still love it, and in fact, I’ll love it even more. Definitely suffering withdrawal symptoms now!

Is the gearbox casing damaged at all? That's some <beep> luck there.

[R56WUF]

I don’t believe so. Hoping to know the extent of the damage before the festive break and then I can look at upgrades as it seems a bit daft simply rebuilding it how it was.

[R56WUF]

Unless of course costs are ridiculously different but I can cross that bridge when I get to it.

Is cryptics car still off the road? Last I heard it was rotting away in her garden. Wonder if the box is still good in it?
Yeah, yeah, "her garden" "box". Calm down.
