Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, Well, I got around to removing my PU yesterday. I've bought some mesh to fit to the grills. I reckon I'll have knocked half a second of the 0-60 time with the amount of crud that was in there. Pity is, I was to late. The centre radiator is weeping. I'd had my suspicions for a while. So, I'm in the Crawley area. Can anyone recommend an indy to do this work? I've looked at the Workshop manual and it looks like a bit of a mission. Incidentally there is a sticker on the radiator that say AKG 06/06. I'm guessing that a manufacturing date. Don't last long do they! Thanks.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the response Richard. The OPC have got the job. Less than 10% more than AddSpeed and can do it sooner. Parr were quite a bit more.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well, I had the car done on Friday and had the most pleasant of surprises when it came to paying the bill. Because of my PCGB membership I got 10% off the bill. This brought the total down to below the cheapest indy quote by about £25. So credit where credit is due, Mid Sussex OPC did a good job, when I needed it done and cheaper than the local independents. I'll be giving them a shot at my business every time from now on.
