[CA Automotive UK]

good one ..Iwill save that for next time

anyone would think CA parts USED TO BE expensive .....sheeesh :p

[CA Automotive UK]

we get so many weird and funny calls that I wss thinking of keeping a log for posterity .

A common call is something like this :

"hi mate I need an exhaust for my 3 series ....how much ? ".......no mention of year , engine , series etc ......

anyone else got any ...teddy ??

[paulm3]

wheres my rear strut beace!! lolololoololol.... i needed 4 tubs of vasaline for that!!!

[Ali_]

I think thats fully class.... cheers for the morning grin session :D

[CA Automotive UK]

hey paul , git that suspension fitted yet ?

regarding the rear brace , should be with you by tuesday . meanwhile one tube of coppaslip on it s way to you .....for that rough but smooth effect :D

[paulm3]

llololol. cheers, yeah its booked in for weds to be fitted then obc allinement thingy on thurs at bmw :):):)

[BigFas]

Paul. I would wait between 5-7 days to let your suspension settle before you get an alignment done. To get it done so soon after getting it installed is a waste of time as it takes a few days to settle properly

[Chaos]

Aye, gotta leave it a few days and drive around a bit to jiggle everything into place.

[CA Automotive UK]

good advice ......

[paulm3]

ok, cheers, the springs have been on there for a while, so will have a play with the settings on the dampers :)

[BigFas]

The fact that you've had the springs on a while is irrelevant. You're taking them off, they're going to become unsprung, so it's worth waiting a few days.
