hi, my raddo failed its mot yesterday for nearside and offside front lower suspension arm has excessive play in the ball joint nearside and offside front anti roll bar linkage rubber mounting deteriorated handbrake not working properly and failed on carbon monoxide emitions i think the handbrake cable needs adjusting, ive never done this, but have been told its easy??? i am going to get a petrol treatment to try and sort the emitions my biggest challenge is going to be the suspension, although im happy to give it a go, can anyone help by telling me what parts will i need and could anyone give

thanks guys, i always dreamed of having a raddo, and was so excited when i finaly got her, its been such a disapointment from the start though, but every time i think i should just cut my losses and get rid i look at her and see how sexy she looks and just cant do it, maybe this might be a opertunity to get the 1.8t conversion. -

im gutted, was driving the car to work and had a big pop then lost all compresion, got a realy bad feeling she may be dead, got a tow home, but its to dark to have a look at her to have any idea whats wrong, totaly im fed up with her now, shes turned out to be the most unreliable and most expensive car ive ever owned, even my old astra was better than this!! :-( :-( -
my vr has started to only fire up on 4 cyliners, the other 2 kick in within a few seconds, but it realy doesnt sound good. im planing on spending the weekend working on her to try and diy fix her, she has new sparkys, leads and coil pack, but i am planing on checking all these again anyway, but does anyone have any other suggestions before i get started? thanks for any advice

i like the first one the best nat due to my job i cant get any facial ones apart from a single pair in my ears, i recomend a hood piercing to any female though, they make a huge diffrence :-p but i would defo recomend you get it numbed unless you like pain, i didnt and owchhhhhhhh!! planing a new tat in the new year, i want one on my wrist that runs up my arm in some way, not sure what yet though.

ouch bet that hurt in the morning!!!

ive got 3 tats, ears, tongue, and bellybutton pierced and a vertical hood piercing. i was petrified getting the tongue done, but the piercing itself realy isnt that bad, its the few days after when it swells that hurt, but the pain is half the fun lol
