Thanks for that Warby221, might try the lock tight thing but , probably best to ask the dealer.

Warby221, thanks for that, had no idea what this plug was and never heard of anyone having this problem before, the microfishe thingy shows the plug but no description of what it is, do you happen to know if there is a seal in there or should I just tighten it a bit, what do you think? Thanks once a...

I have an oil leak somwhere at the front of the engine, thought it was the oil seal at the starter motor, changed that - still got the leak, new oil filter, still got the leak, it looks like there is oil above the stater motor, I noticed that there is a large plug in the engine, just behind the star...

Hi Sketty, how did you get on? This sounds a bit like what I have now got, mine is leaking behind the starter motor,i did think it was the oil filter but, i've seen it drip above here when the engine was hot, I think the oil seal on the starter motor is going or gone, this sprays oil behind the star...

I have just noticed an oil leak from around the oil filter/starter motor area, tightened the oil filter,still got the leak. Now it looks as though it's coming from the starter motor area, I guess it's the oil seal where the starter connects to the engine but, I noticed a large allen key plug behind ...

Had them on a while now, they are as good as any, look great and don't rust at the first sign of moisture - unlike my previous EBCs, we shall see how they are in the wet, should get some rain soon!!!! Braking seems a lot stronger but, my EBCs were warped so they might have been as good as these when...

Got them this morning, 6 days from HK! pretty good, well they look sturdy enough, very light but then there is so much cut away, don't know how much lighter than stock items. Will be fitting them soon and test them, let you know how they are, to the untrained eye, they don't look cheap, have to see ...

Thanks for that Chris, will post an update letting people know how they are.

Don't know why my first post is blank but, all it said wast hat I have bought a PAIR of wavey discs off of E-Bay for £109 which seems very cheap as I've seen normal discs going for this amount for just one! Hope this helps someone who can't afford expensive original discs. The seller on e-bay is Vi...

I've seen some shocking prices for new discs, I have ordered a pair of wavey discs from E-Bay which come from China,I already have a rear wavey disc from the same place and it's working fine so, I think the quality of the fronts should be bang on too. More important, is that the two fronts cost £10...
