:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :sorry: :lol:

but thats the funiest description for a dodgy icv ive ever heard:laugh:

its all pretty simple to fix tho

ICV -give it a clean with carb cleaner 1st, thatl probably cure it, if it dnt, then they **** easy to change.

Supsension arm snapped - im assumin u mean wishbone, roughlu £15-20 each, change both while ur there, and might aswel do the track rod ends aswel, £5 each

Need new springs - look in the for sale forums, cheap as..30 odd quid n u can get urself some 2nd hand ones...or have a look on topgear.co.uk/europerformance.co.uk/tuning.co.uk (everyone on here loves tuning.co.uk.....i prefer europerformance, my bits turn up on time no hassle)

bust my digital display in it - u muppet

stupid valves on the alloys - pop the wheel off, go to tyre fitters flash ur eyelashes, job done, i always used to get the ex to go change my tyres...they never charged her for fitting lol

Fan didnt work - fan switch..autovaux, or get one from scrappy, (pocketable size..) or a fiver probably...

None of the sensors work tells me i got no oil when i have - ...sensor?


cars are just plain anoyin, i broke 2nd gear on my astra yday:doh: ....now i need a new bastid gearbox...insurance is due...rent is due...n due to give the car a good beating....

oil warning light on multi display or oil light on dash binacle

first one is just a simple 2 wire plug that goes to the front of the sump. if not secured properly it catches on the clutch fork which can snap one or both of the wires, if the wires are broken it shows as having "oil lack" on the mfd.. if thats the case just repair the wire/s.

if its the one on the dash binacle thats actually oil pressure low..stupidly low infact. if that stays on dont drive it n get it looked at it could be anything from a knackered oil pump to blocked oil gallery.
 
Char something you gotta remember about cars especially mk3 gsi's!!!!

IF IT IT AIN'T BROKE RAG IT TILL IT IS :nod:

oh and your doing well my astra has a similar fault list but do i care??? do i **** just repair waht you can and bodge the rest :beer:
