Broken Turbo
by GlennyGills » Fri May 17, 2019 2:56 pm » in Non Mx/roadster general car topics

Hi,
My Scooby WRX's turbo has apparently died (very noisy) and I need to source a repair / replacement. I live in Berkshire does anyone have any ideas / good reports of people to use ? People to avoid ??

Thanks

Making a fluid catcher ....... Attachment(s)
by Mazda Mender » Tue May 14, 2019 6:45 am » in Top Tips

There is no need to spend on fluid catch tubs. They are simple to make, easy to pour with, reusable and there are loads about.

All you need is a old container 20/25/30 ltr etc and a cutting tool, grinder etc and eye protection..

So get your old container and wash it out first.......

by njonesn » Mon May 06, 2019 9:56 pm » in Members Mx-5/ Roadsters

In July 2017 I finally purchased an MX5. As an IT Technician I wanted something that could get me away from the digital world, something that I can fiddle with and enjoy driving. I have no fear of engineering and tinkering but have not done much on the scale of a car before.
I knew I wanted an MX5...

I am sorry, but I feel the need to say something that I feel is bad service from an mx5 specialist here in the uk... I have personally hit this twice now.
