What is a rear autotech ARB?? Also anyone with autotech internals ever notice a different noise once fitted compared with the standard when pushing on? Just hoping its been fitted right!!

Rear Autotech ARB went on this afternoon. At first i wasnt sure it had done anything at all... but a few highspeed corners threw that out of the window!

Thanks to Alex at BDM for fitting it for me!

Good to meet you today Rich. You have a very clean car and Im glad you are enjoying the bar already

You too alex... ill be back thats for sure! Do you do DSG servicing and Cabelts? If you could PM me some prices that would be superb!

I can confirm that the rear bar is working a treat and it definitely feels less prone to understeer (even had the back end out i touch this afternoon)

We can do the dsg service and cambelts. I will pop you a PM with prices.

Washed clayed polished and collinited!

Only did the front end as it looked like it was gonna rain. Very pleased with the result that the collinite gives, its a pig to remove thought!

I find a microfibre cloth misted with quick detailer spray can help buff off the collinite. The other thing is you don't need to leave it on long before buffing off. I once made the mistake of leaving it on for thirty minutes during the winter time and it was a pig to remove. During the summer, even five minutes can be horrendous.

If you're really struggling, reapply the collinite - the solvents should help dissolve/remove what has dried.

I love collinite

going to be coating mine up soon.

A good plush cloth (deep microfibre for example) makes removing collinite a breeze

Not really... its a pain in the arse of a job! But I suppose it is quite satisfying spending 6 hours cleaning the the paintwork and seeing the results. Shame that tomorrow it will be dirty!

Robin... no photoshop

Thanks andy... you know as well as i do how much of a PITA black cars are.
