Might Not Able To Make Jae Now

[Chris.S]

Happened just after J8a, so we'd done a fair few miles before it went

[Chris.S]

Thanx everyone for their support and offers of help

[AMH]

So is it covered by warranty or do we need another special LOC collection ?

I'm sure a few of us will donate given all your help to us in the past ...

Really sorry to hear the news - guess you must be gutted.

[ifraz]

Sorry to hear the news about your car Chris. Hope it all gets sorted quick, and all on warranty.

[Maz]

Okay boys the news is

A CON ROD HAS COME THRU THE SIDE OF THE BLOCK FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON   

Sorry to hear that Chris, it sound pretty nasty, hope you get it sort out asap, under warranty hopefully, if not we sure will able donate some funds to help you out matey......

[Chris.S]

When the engine comes out I'll post some photo's, cant' see much at present but there's at least a 2" hole in the side of the block

[eMJay]

I'm sorry to hear about that and hope you get it fixed.

[Scorpion]

Crikey thats bad news,

Will it get sorted under warranty even ?.

[Chris.S]

If thats the case then anyone want a IS200 rolling shell cause I cant afford a £3000 bill

[norkep]

This maybe a silly question but if it's not under warranty, could you not claim on the insurance if you're fully comp and have PNCB

I'm sure it wont come to that Chris i was just looking at it from the worst side of things.

[JOHNNY-BOY]

Blimey what can I say, apart from how unlucky can you be

Keep us updated Chris as I am sure that if you encounter any problems your friends on LOC will be able to find a solution or at least point in the right direction :)

WTF Hope you get it sorted soon mate.....shes a beut....who was the third car in your mini convoy yesterday?? (play ice)

Shahz, if you are talking about the 100 plus club on the M-Way, I was there with Fargo. (maybe I was the third car in the convoy that you refer to?-no mention about my job anyone please on here, this is a public forum and can be read by anyone. :P )

I slowed down as in the distance I saw flashing headlights about two miles back on a bend and dip in the M25. I thought I had "had it!".

That is when you buzzed past me whilst I was doing a "steady" 65 in the slow lane and you beeped at me in the fast lane I tried to get your attention that the blues and twos were coming......

Once the white estate Focus buzzed passed on blue lights and it was clear that it was "only" a dog unit already responding to a call, not motorway traffic unit.

I then sped up again behind you and flashed my headlights, do you recall? I was gonna tail you all the way to my Hemel turn off, but the Blue E class old dog Merc pushed in the way and you were gone...

[hertsALTEZZAcol]

Aido,, i couldnt help my speed, i had an off duty copper chasing me...(lmao)..

Laughs out loud.... :P

[andyhart21]

I'm gutted for you mate

Again, If there is anything I can do to help call me.........

[Chris.S]

No problem thanks andy

[PhoneDrome]

Sth new about your warranty? Is it not the same like in Germany for TTE S/Ced cars?

[robjonk]

how unlucky . hope you get it all sorted quickly and without too much pain in the wallet area.

[Gord]

sorry mate hope you get it fixed soon.

[SteveAudioX]

Chris, sory to hear this.

Hope you get it sorted quickly, It would be good to know the cause behind it if you ever find out what it was, makes me worr now.

If still have to come JAE though ... :winky:

[Canter]

Sorry to hear that, mate.

Hope everything gets fixed soon.

Col it was just the mini convoy with Chris Aido & Billy on the A3....I saw the blues coming.....my heart did drop for a second then relised it was dog section...i didnt see you flash...but there was a women driving a blue c class Merc was that the one.....she was behind me for a few miles right up my :tsktsk: but i couldnt go anywhere as the car infront wasnt moving out the way.....so she decides to undertake me and cuts in front of me so i moved in to the middle lane and shot past both of them ....she then went right accross to the slow lane to try to undertake me but i was gone little did she know i used to have a c class and know what they are not capable of :D :winky:

[JOHNNY-BOY]

Is it worth taking the car to Germany if UK dealers won't honour the warranty?

As your charger was fitted by TTE warranty should be valid and all cars now have a pan-European warranty.

[AltezzaScott]

Sorry Chris.... like everyone else... if there is anything i can do just ask mate...

Least you weren`t hurt mate..
