  • Didnt watch the funeral .
    Now for me 2 hours for a wash, dry, wheels tyres and windows is a result. Really happy with results on going back to Pure Definition products. Yes might be a little more work, but car pops after just a wash and dry again. May try the quick detailer again, didn't have a use for it before, but as a wipe down after dry may be ok.
    Usual pics so don't moan .
    Only used 4 products, 1 wash mitt, 1 bucket, 1 wheel woolie, I drying cloth, 1 polishing pad (for window cleaner), 1 old microfibre for tyre shine. And a decent microfibre for buffing paint and glass after dry.

          • Usual photos . Love the end results but so many stone chips this last month and a few more scratches have appeared now everyone is out of lockdown. Don't know if end result is actually worth the effort anymore.

                  • Very quick wash and dry ready for its trip to the garage tomorrow. Just don't have it in me to leave a car somewhere all dirty.
                    Didn't come up that bad to be honest.

                        Don't forget to tell them not to wash it. You don't want their grubby hands and dropped cloths on it.

                          Same here, just last week when my car went in to have its wheels done it was spotless inside and out, even took the wheel nut covers off so they didn't take a screwdriver to them and left them the locking wheel nut key in a clean container on the passenger seat. Im guessing, like you, if they can see it's cherished they hopefully might look after it more.

                            No that's on the 11th June.
                            Many months ago I mentioned when pulling away in 1st there was a clunk. Well it stopped. But has since come back. But only in the dry and over a certain air temp.
                            New little workshop opened next to my work kept seeing Vauxhalls outside so turns out he was a Vauxhall mechanic at the Beverly sealers and decided to set his own place up.
                            Having it for an hour on ramps to inspect brakes, exhaust, mountings, shocks etc etc.
                            £30 a hour. Also asked about discs and pads for later in year, reckons £120 fitted per pair, which I didn't think was bad either.
                            So depends on what he finds today, and the mot in a few weeks if I change or not.

                              Yes will get a wash a 7am the morning of service and mot . Also stops them from feeling the need to wash it themselves.

                              • Well he had it for 3 hours, checked everything underside from shocks to bushes, mounts to brakes etc. Nothing a miss. Asked if he thought was clutch, really doesn't think so. Only advice he could give me was to let fault develop, but it's been like this for last 6 months . Only really notice it when weather turns better.
                                Wouldn't take payment either, said don't fix anything and couldn't find anything.

                                Next step I'm going to wait for a warm day then soak each corner in turn with a hose and see if that can eliminate anything.
                                Really annoying, and doing my head in now city traffic is start stop again.
