[De ionised Car Washing]

Cleaning out my garage i found an old "Flash Car Wash " thing.

i know they are discontinued now but the filtered final wash did produce a decent finish and presumably the filter was a De ionisng filter.

Im just wondering if anyone has tried to use a De ionisd filter in a home made system. you can get a filter on line for about £10, its not rocket science to hook up a hose pipe to it.

Id be interested in any ideas.

Cheers

HI,

Im going to service my Corsa and looked on ebay for oil.

I came across an ad for Brit Oil, or Britoil, its 1/2 the price of the likes of Shell or GM but never heard of them before.

And no its not the old Northsea Britoil, different logo.

Anyone know anything about it?

Im all for saving money but do want quality.

Cheers

Sounds like someone has changed the wheels for a wider combination.
Maybe better to fit them to the rear? But if the work fine (e.g. good handling) then maybe best to leave them on there.
Otherwise, next tyre change you can revert back to 215 size (maybe cheaper as well)

Thanks, possibly the previous owner lived in a rural area. Im inclined to replace them with new 215s. More for my peace of mind than anything else.

Hi,

My daughter has just bought a 2018 Corsa 1.4 special edition.

I have noticed that the front tyres are size 225/45 whilst the rear tyres are 215/45

I cannot find that the 225/45 are recomended for a Corsa on any tyre specalist site.

 Your Comments and thoughts most welcome.

I have a 2019 1.4 Griffin with 195/55 tyres all round, just cant see why the tyres would be different

Cheers
