more like, housemate L (ex housemate to be exact) went to adelaide, his new place doesn't have secure parking, so he left his car at ours while he's gone.

housemate J took L's car to go somewhere, claims a yaris cut him off causing him to swerve to avoid a collision, hits curb, buckles two wheels. L is coming back from adelaide tomorrow. he's shitting brix because he can't remove the two buckled wheels, none of my sockets fit the wheel nuts.

and can i be your mate? i occasionally need to move stuff. lol. i also has wagyu.

[xALmoN]

nuts barely fit into the hole, i'm not sure how the wheel shop even put those nuts on. all my sockets are too damn fat.

can't find the recommended castrol 5w-20 oil for my car anywhere.. have to order in a 20l drum (takes 8.5l), can't get oil filter made by ryco etc. either as they don't make them yet for this engine. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

One place that could help you with it.

Not only they supply oil and filters, they do service like safety inspection check, a man to do your dirty job (and drive your car in respectable manner), a hoist, etc...

It's called local Ford Service centre

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

what do the guys that "track" the new ford motors use

yes I used parenthesis around the word track because a drag strip is not really a track

[UNR33L]

most people use the recommended 5w-20 castrol or 5w-20 amsoil, there's a pretty big discussion on oil for it but at the end of the day comes straight back to what FPV recommends

http://www.castrol.com/castrol/sectiongenericarticle.do?categoryId=8002086&contentId=7069672

apparently some people are experimenting with slightly thicker stuff for tuned cars but majority just the edge 5w-20

just ordered a 20l drum from repco

Ford charged me $450 last service so cbf with that lol probably just look over it and change oil anyway.

Ford charge $450?! Did they at least give you a hand job?

Yep, Mazda is worse - not only did the oil filter i picked up today for mums mazda 6 mps cost 22 f*kn dollars but few weeks back needed to get a new drive shaft for the front, cost over 1k.. told dad he should of looked around at wreckers or something instead..

tl;dr dealerships reem you
