Front right brake sticks intermittently
So my brake likes to stay engaged slightly after I've applied a normal amount of pressure to the brakes. When I leave the car off for a short while, it will 'unstick' and be back to normal.

Yeah in rush hour traffic I tend to leave a bigger gap in front of me so I can keep rolling forwards while the cars ahead of me are stopping and starting all the time. By the time the gap has closed the cars in front will have hopefully started moving again. It makes it smoother for the few cars beh...

Insurance companies are fucking wankers. So are police. The people who make the decisions are, not the organisations as a whole. The police just do as they are told, and make decisions based on the extent of their training. They have to put up with a lot of shit other than just pulling us over beca...

Car theives will only use this as a shopping list if you are a muppet by throwing on a lisence plate and/or details on where you are specifically located. Speaking of mods and showing off your car here kinda makes it a shopping list too in a way. ^.^ Exactly. Its no different from browsing the gara...

Forgot to take a before photo, and my photography skills are average for this one, but this was after one spray down of simple green and a hose off. Minimal scrubbing. It definitely loosened off the surface dirt and grime, but there's still quite a bit there. Next time I'll get right in there with a...
