Good to have another tinkerer on here. It's sometimes a little intimidating just how much some of pros on here seem to know, but it's all good and everyone's happy to share.

How I envy a tinkerer By the time I get of work I don't feel like doing anything on my own car

Welcome Andy hope you enjoy your time here, great community of chaps/girls on here to get a long with knowledge is power, but the knowledge we have does not belong to us, we all acquired our knowledge from our experience and time put in, we don't own it, we can only use it while we understand it (or think we understand it), and most importantly we share it with each other to then understand what we don't understand before we forget it and somebody then comes along and says, have you thought about? Ah, I didn't know that It's a great forum to be apart of.

I've finally serviced my car,sorted the pas leak,and replaced the tyres I only got it in oct 2014! I always said them damned service schedules were getting longer and longer I'll bet the mileage is very low I might have been misunderstood,so. I'll re write it. My 2002 year citroen hdi with 135,000 miles on it was bought In 2014. It had a few niggles with it. Those got sorted straight away,the service and oil leak and tyres got done now. I'll get round to doing the anti roll bar link soon,ish!!! Until then,just turn the radio up. Gearbox is getting a bit whiney now!!
