Hi mate, ive just bought this incredible stuff called ProShine, it has Carbanau wax in it, you dont need to wash your car, just spray, rub in, then buff up, it cleans birds s**t, tar marks, insect splodges etc etc, have a wee look at www.netparts.co.uk and have a read for yourself, i was a bit sceptical but having tried lots of diffetent wax's/polishes over the years i thought i'd give it a try, it does exactly what it says on the tin. you can use this stuff on windows, plastic, alloys etc. I know i sound like a sales rep for the company but it's the best stuff i've ever used and it takes no time to do your car, i done my whole car, including windows inside and out, plus wheels in 45 mins. Tommy

Blue = The Toffee's ? :D

S**t, bit of dilema now, blue looks good mate.

Hi guys, just purchased my first is200 2 weeks ago. A bit of a knocking noise coming from the front drivers wheel. i checked the most recent MOT and in the advisory box it said YES, so checked website that you can put your mot number in and all the details comes up ( dont know how i found this ) anyway, it said the advisory was a bit of play in the balljoints, would you guys advise to get this done straight away or will it be ok ? mot was done13th june, also, anyone know how much this is likely to cost to replace both balljoints, Many Thanks in advance, Tommy

Thanks alot mate, this looks idiot proof, should do me just fine Its a good walkthrough that one, A lot of us havn't done the drum, just the calipers but when i do mine again i'll be doing the drums aswell to tidy them up :D Aye, think i'll do drum aswell, makes it look alot tidier, do you think red is the only colour to use on a Sapphire blue ?

My is200 is Sapphire Blue, is red the only way to go ?

Thats like a brain surgeon "saying it's easy, i do it every day", without telling you how too do it. :winky:

Thanks alot mate, this looks idiot proof, should do me just fine

Hi guys, was thinking of painting my brake calipers. Is their a good and bad way to do it. Do i have to take the caliper off ? and is their a special kind of paint used, forgive my niavitey, im a newbie, Many Thanks, Tommy

Hi Stevie, how much was it to get your geomtry setting done, Tommy

Hello Killer, i live in Greenock, if you find anywhere that does the Geomtry settings for the is200,like Kenneth Browns, could you let me know mate, would be much appreciated. Tommy

Hi mate, thanks for your advise, the more i drive the less it seems to be happening, i will get used to it me thinks, feck, i sound like a 17yr old L driver, ( wish i was, 17 yrs old i mean ), many thanks :winky:

Thanks alot for your advise mate, much appreciated :winky:

Thanks Crutch, no doubt i'll be picking all you guy's brains over the course, so thanks in advance mate.

Hi, just bought my first is200 and im smitten, love it, was wondering if you guys held any meeting in Scotland or North England ?

Hi Tommy, There's a "New Topic" button at the top right of the forum. Also, when you're reading a thread (like this one), there's also a "New Topic" button at bottom right, next to the "Fast Reply" and "Add Reply" buttons. Hi Stevie, thanks for the advise mate, eventually managed it with your help, i noticed you where thinking about painting your brake calipers, was thinking of doing the same, did you get any good tips mate, Cheers, Tommy the Novice

I had a lot of that until I had my wheels properly balanced at Wheels in Motion. That made a massive difference. Tony has a very impressive modern wheel-balancing machine there. Do you feel general vibrations as well as the gearstick wobbling ? i.e. is the gearstick wobbling just because the whole car is wobbling at that speed ? Hi Stevie, yes mate, seems like the whole car is wobbling, thought i may have been driving in 6th too slow 70-80?

Thanks. I was on the motorway yesterday doing between 70-80 in 6th gear and their seemed to be a lot of gearstick wobble, do you think i was just not going fast enough in 6th ?

Your advise is much appreciated, had a wee idea i wasnt revving enough

Thanks for the reply mate, that makes me feel a wee bitty better, Thought i had just bought a car needing a new clutch
