Tomorrow I will be hooking up the laptop to give a gay blue car a health check.
I am open to bribes for map alterations, in order to raise funds for SES.................please send your requests and paypal payment to payments@southeastscoobies.co.uk via www.PayPal.com

Your donation will be matched by Big'E' when I remove the modification upon your return ;)

3K Rev limit?

Or for greater amusement map the DBW so that the last 50% of throttle is in the last 2% of pedal travel!

It's not DBW unfortunately and E's throttle only runs 0% and 100% anyway,

I've heard .5 bar boost is the new trend.

Check list for 2016 Nurburgring Trip
 
So many things I can think of for Ian's ;)

Need to fit a new driveshaft to mine I found out today :/ os cv joint clicking!

scotty 26-05-2016 10:50 PM

Think you should fit a bubble machine so that it blows bubbles out of his exhaust instead of making a noise :lol:

It may well be the bearing, mine had a similar noise turned out to be the bearing.

nikkinokkinoo 27-05-2016 01:10 AM

I brought 500ml of Millers octane booster - is that enough ? How much should you put in a tank. TBH I don't know what the EVO was mapped on anyway but I feel like I should help her through Europe with a suitable level of RON.

She is at the Garage getting all the fluids done at the mo - hopefully back Wed.

I can pretty much guarantee I will win the prize for 'most squeeky brakes'.

Yes probably read the instructions as to how much you need in the tank.

The only slightly dodgy time re petrol is the fuel stop in Belgium which is just past halfway.
The shell V power is not quite full strength apparently?

Once in Germany quality fuel 100 to 102 ron is readily available.

As Ian says it's only really in Belgium where the fuel isn't brilliant, those bottles of millers are not the greatest though they only treat 20 litres of fuel and don't add much actual Ron rating, I would just play it safe on the way out and back and not do big autobahn pulls at 150! /points at Big-E :D

scotty 27-05-2016 09:54 AM

Just had a thought will i need a front VRN plate as i dont have one anymore :angst:

Red Baron 27-05-2016 11:48 AM

VRN? Is that a number plate? If so I'd say yes, car must meet UK MOT requirements and that's an instant failure. Also handy when checking in at the tunnel with the ANPR system.

Mine does the same, o/s rear, I had a nice spare set of drive shafts which Si now owns, wonder if Jo is interested in selling to clear space in their garage...

Those who have been before will probably have most of this stuff already. For those who have not been before, the below list is invaluable. Most of the items in the "For The Car" section are actually law in Europe, so I would advise that you make sure that you do / have these things arranged.

I'm sure that most of you who have been before will have this stuff, but it's well worth double checking, just in case. Anything that you haven't got can be purchased at places like Halfords.
BLUE are the ones that are Law in Europe! Please remember that the breathalysers are a requirement in France .
But apparently there are no penalties for not having one :cuckoo:
