chatsharris Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I'm heading off in a bit towards the m5 if I can be of any assistance? I'm in Tiverton services by the Travelodge but I think if anything is going to work maybe a wind back of the caliper to see if it frees it up? This may explain why I've only been getting 22 to the gallon though Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AA man is here, likes the Prelude and is doing a strip and clean. Hopefully should do the trick!Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chatsharris Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 did you let johnk have a go in it? He was the first to do so. So that means yes! He's having to do a fair amount of grinding, pads were not retracting at all.Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk richardthestag and stonedagain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grinder deployed and back on the road, just checked after 10 miles of motorway driving and temperature is even and normal.Sadly, I had to tell the lovely nurse I won't be picking her up. Sad face.

beko1987 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I'm back at Tiverton tesco. I have a new knocking sound from somewhere, sounds drop-linkey but nothings hanging off and it doesn't do it when I actually hit any bumps.

Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk My x1/9 did that- the rubber flexi hose had broken down inside and was acting like a one way valve. I fixed* it on the m6 by not braking again until Surrey.

Bucketeer Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I popped off into town this morning to get some stomach medicine and soon got sidetracked when I found a few rally special stages to play on. Then I thought I'd go and see the sea but I got distracted by many twisty little roads, and ended up in Bournemouth. I don't think it's worth me coming back now. stonedagain, Mrs6C, The Moog and 8 others 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
