right ...needs a new set of tyres.. so ive got BTo2os on order..you were right thumper m8 summat is wrong with the right hand disc..its' not warped but its bent inwards about 3 inches some point on its circumference so it has a tight spot..but it did not fluctuate like a warpred disc on the test bed..so they reckon it could be the axel the boys at J Wier are gonna have a look see to see if it may be something fixable without having to buy new parts..but a new axel is only £30.. replacement subframe was fitted..and i have guaranteed straight discs in case they need replaced..otherwise it sailed through all the other tests even the lock to lock..the BTs will cost under £200 fitted. so i reckon on about £300- 350 parts labour and the Mot which means im back on the road for under £600. not bad for a total wreck after my off....next time its fully comp for me insurance wise, and im just about to call bennetts to see if they will cover a loaner till mine is ready to pick up..next week :wink:
