    Oil change for newbie

    So done it was easy, pleased had to jack it up. So moved onto taking the wheels off, jacked it up, got bolts out. Could I get the wheel off, no way! Hit it with a dead blow hammer, nothing. Any ideas you good people?

    Thanks. Trying to weigh up if it’s worth buying all the tools. Gave all my tools up when I left GB. Now I’m back I need to buy again. That’s why I thought Kwik fit. Must say people on here are super helpful it’s much appreciated. No such thing as a dumb question I guess👍

    Thanks. I like the idea of doing it myself so will think about it today and look underneath. Just tell me what you put in it as it’s hard work cutting through all the specs. Regards👍

    Oil change for newbie

    Hi all. New to all this and I am after some recommendations for an oil change. It’s a minefield of over information! Just bought a 99 2.0 litre six. And always I like to get the oil changed straight away. Was thinking I’ll take it kwik fit, but not sure I can trust them. Then thought I’ll do it...

    Thanks, I’ll take some pics tomorrow, I rubbed them down through the clear coat, and was going to just lacquer them again. Pretty impressed considering they are 25 year old.,struggling getting wheel bolts off tho, and on all four wheels the anti theft one is missing👎

    Need paint

    So Hi everyone. Just bought this Z3 it needs some paint here and there, I got the name for the silver. Titan silver apparently, it’s a 1999 on a V plate. Any ideas what the name is for the wheels? And a good product for the hood?
