Thanks for the shout out dude 👍 glad you got new arms sorted out before it was too late. Bit of bad luck with it atm but at least you didnt have to buy new parts, just the inconvience of having to to it all again. Will be worth the effort in the end when summer rolls around 👌
Keep your head up pal. Loving the content , you’re absolutely smashing it , I’ve just been slapped with £800 bill as slave cylinder went , so whilst box was split new clutch new fly wheel , then drive shaft crumbled & now fan is on all time so temperature sensor to fit tomorrow , all worth it when you get an B road. Keep up the content pal 🛠
I sometimes wonder if it's just a Vauxhall thing!! One step forward 2 back. Just started a project myself agila vxr and have a similar headache. Good content for you though!! Lol.😂. The joys of Vauxhall ownership. Deep breath , shout swear and swear again.
Feeling your pain! I'm having huge frustrations with the brakes on my Corsa VXR. Keep the faith,it's what VXR owners do .lol. Enjoying your excellent videos.keep up the great work.
Hi bud I had to replace my top mount bearing when I had my vxr about 6 months ago they lasted about a month before I had to change again so I bought gm parts been ok since. You got this !
Are Nevlock contacting people they have a list of all parts sold, so if a recall is happening you should get told not a person having to tell you? If they aren't that's bad patter and I wouldn't be using again. Admire the honesty in the videos as you could have easily just done the swaps and not mentioned it. 🤘
Cheers mate always like to be honest in my videos haha 🤙🏻 and all they did was put a post on Facebook asking people who brought them to contact them asap and when I did they were golden tbf they sent me another set out the same day
@@Yodaracing1 Fair play on prompt exchange. If more quality control was done would have saved you more time and bother though. Anyhow, your a master at all things suspension now 😛
@@Yodaracing1 Its best to just change everything suspension related at that age. Wish I had done it all at once. it would have saved so much time jacked up and off the road !
What a fucking mare man, I can't say I've ever had this much issue from new parts and parts supply. At least your mechanic and supplier have been OK about it. Frustrating stuff but will be well worth the headache
Waiting to see when it goes back to wayside to see if it makes more power had mine at giz motorsport couple weeks ago I have similar mods and made 297.5 and 340lb
Do you think it might of failed because of the lowering springs are too low for the shocks? Interested to see if they last. I was going to do the same but bottled it and got coil overs 🤣
Had the same thing happen to me new shockers lowering springs and new top mounts n bearings, new mounts are creaking and clunking away. Did replacing the already (new) mounts again work?
@@Yodaracing1 thanks this al new to me use to drive renualt megane r26 decided to move on will check it out once brought will pop dwn n cya mate help me out with some work try n save some money 😉id rather pay u then Mickey mouse at garage round here there all cowboys
What an absolute nightmare! Still, it's content for the channel and the replacement parts didn't cost anything. Good work bro
Cheers mate

Me to mate it will get there need a few other bits first lol
Do you think it might of failed because of the lowering springs are too low for the shocks? Interested to see if they last. I was going to do the same but bottled it and got coil overs 🤣
If both failed I would of suspected that but it’s the fact only one did which leads me to believe it was a dodgy one
