Re: In an attempt to remain positive...
And Grizz wins the Chocolate yea
Re: In an attempt to remain positive...
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!

Re: In an attempt to remain positive...
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.

Re: In an attempt to remain positive...
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....

Re: In an attempt to remain positive...
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.
Re: In an attempt to remain positive...
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.

Re: In an attempt to remain positive...
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.

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.
