    Key fob advice

    Tried the new fob today,it's the first time I've felt confident starting the car! The Toyota fob always used to flex and felt flimsy and the case always cracked eventually. The YotaMD case feels like your starting the car with a screwdriver,absolutely solid,no flex,feels great.

    Exhaust replacement

    My exhaust's on 150,000+ miles/20 years now,thinking about a replacement. What's the advantages of a 3'' inch exhaust? Is stainless steel the best option? I removed the cat in my OEM exhaust immediately,can you specify a 'no cat' system ? Cheers

    2001-2003 Collie diesel auto

    Key fob advice

    I'd like one of these YotaMD key fobs but not at this price. Shame,they look strong and durable. The OEM key fobs aren't tough enough and they crack eventually...

    Roof tent v normal tent ?

    My dog wouldn't like the roof tent idea.I saw an interesting Berghaus tent that inflated rapidly with a hand pump. It took him a while to deflate it and put it away though. I'm thinking about at least two nights so I can explore the area...

    Measured the ride height today,750mm front/ 780mm rear which is bang on standard spec. BFG's haven't touched anywhere. Do you normally get the tracking done when you change front springs and shocks? Cheers

    Door card repair

    Mr.T can't supply the upper arm rest trims at the top of the door-card anymore and it's an all-in - one purchase together with the door- card. I suppose a body shop or upholster might do them?

    Kayaba suspension on. Sits a bit lower,handles better,doesn't roll in the corners,not harsh over bumps. I'm well pleased! Let's see if the BFG'S clear everything.
