    Oil Leak

    So... I took off the metal surrounding however the bolt sheered off!! It does look like the the surrounding wasn't screwed down tight enough though hence the oil coming out. I can rest the metal surrounding on the rubber. What do you suggest now? I'm not sure where this bolt goes etc Pics...

    Discs 280mm or 300mm

    Morning everyone, need to get new discs for my 04 Accord. When looking online there are two variants - 280mm/300mm. Would it really make a difference if I got the 300's instead of the 280's? Why would there be two variants? I've got 17' Pentas alloys. Thanks Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    Issue with pads and disc's (Pic heavy)

    Issue with pads and disc's (Pic heavy)

    Right, so I had a look this weekend and brought my partners brother who's a mechanic. I and he took everything apart and back together and then he said something that made me think.

    Few Questions!

    Ok, please bear with me in regards to these questions. 1. I'm due to become a father in 3 weeks, and I was wondering if it is possible to "remotely" switch off the front passengers air bag so I can have my child in the front with me if necessary? Also switch it back on when not needed. I know...
