Matt the Womble

I've got a 2007 k series 1.8, 140 BHP, I was just wondering if anyone knows how much it costs to get jenvey throttle bodies fitted, ball park figure is fine and also if it's worth it or not ?? Ta ever so !

We're appear to have a gaggle of 7's in and around Eastbourne as I'm in willingdon,

Thanks rich, sounds great. I bought my 7 (and first seven) in may , so been getting to grips with it and enjoying some of the fine Sussex roads. There was an East Sussex group but I think most of the members left and did something with a group in Kent.

I'm also a relatively new owner, I joined the East Sussex group but doesn't seem to be much activity, I'll seek a free transfer to mid Sussex !

Are there a few 7's around in East Sussex ? I'm in Eastbourne and seen a regular yellow 7 spinning around but not a lot else

Some git has scuffed and scratched my daughters car, I've managed to get most of there paint off her car and wondered if there was anything other than T-cut to help with the scratch. Running my finger nail over it is is a definite scratch and we wouldn't want to bother with a repair, just wondered if people had any tips to dumb it down a bit .

great idea RS, also gives me something to do whilst the weather is cak !

im based just outside of Eastbourne, ive followed the helpful suggestions yesterday and got the nose off, filled the tank and nipped up all the hoses i could lay my hands on ! I'll check the garage floor again at the weekend ! thanks all again, another piece of knowledge gained in the 7 journey !

Crumbs, looks like I'll have to wait for a full moon ! how difficult is it to remove the nose ?

It's a 2007 k series , do I need to roll my trouser leg up to fill it up or is it simpler !?!

My new arrival has been leaving a couple or drips on the garage floor, having had a good route around I found the bottom of the pipes from the coolant tank where damp , I've nipped the jubilee clamps up, but welcome any other thoughts, also, how on earth do you top,the coolant tank up !

Bought some built hammer this week, used it today and it's great, thanks all !!

Thats great, thanks all, ive tried the normal Halfords usuals but will try the options given.

Alloy wheel hel-

Ok, so it's not my 7 but the family car is in need of some help on the wheels, I'm pretty sure someone had the key to cleaning this general road cak of alloy wheels, jet washing won't move it, it need some extra help, any ideas i]on the best product ?
