bent

As some of you may recall, I have had a an involvement with Bentley’s quicker cars for some time, and I confess, to building a silborn super SUV. However, this takes the ‘challenging’ Bentayga to whole new level of aesthetic and cultural beauty…..:rolleyes: Bentley Bentayga 4.0 (AWD) 5dr...

As above I have stripped down a 2011 engine after it bent a conrod jamming the crank solid. All very good inside and has the revised SLS tappets and head bolts. New rod from MB parts £154 so not to bad. I have a couple of questions that I cannot find clear on my Wis. The bolts in the...

Good day to you all, A few weeks ago I had to have my C280 (w202) brought home on a recovery truck after the immobiliser decided to freeze...there are no visible towing hooks/eyes on my car as it has the body kit fitted..it was fitted when I bought it 7yrs ago and never noticed the towing hooks...

Hi All I wanted to change the steering wheel on my E55 for the later type with paddle shifts from E63. I bought one online, but it has been badly damaged in transit:mad: It has come complete with full steering column, switches etc so is quite heavy and has clearly been dropped from a great...

Sorry, I couldn't resist it... Again! :D:D:D

Hi Guys, Having a massive panic attack here - tried to put the roof down on my 04 SL55 earlier this week and it got stuck half way. Wasn't entirely sure what the problem was but I eventually realised someone had put a solid object on the right shoulder of the boot separator and the mechanism...

Does anyone know why the spolier on the 300 CE dips down in the middle or is it meant to be that way?

Without wishing to sound too self-indulgent, it's been a slightly sh*t few weeks - and today the icing was put on my cake of woes. A suicidal pheasant stepped out in front of the W204 C-Class hire car I've been using since my accident. Travelling at 60-ish I wasn't about to swerve into oncoming...

Hi everyone Well I was driving along the m25 and went over a huge pothole, couldn't swerve to avoid as that would have meant going into another car, however after that the car was not smooth to drive above 50mph and steering vibrates, also when driving I find the rear of the car moving...

Hi - I am in Cheltenham and looking for a place nearby that might be able to help. My wife was driving today and the bonnet flew up and bent. I think it's also bent the hinges as the bonnet is all misaligned and won't close. The bonnet is bent beyond repair so I'm going to need to locate a...

At the start of the year, somebody in a Mondeo tried to write my car off by driving into the side of it. Car wasn't written off and I got a satisfactory settlement from the insurance company, however........I had a sideways moment outside my work on Monday in the snow at slow speed (10-15MPH)...

While my W215 (CL500) was having its tracking done it was pointed out that both tie-rods were bent. I was surprised, so was the chap doing the work. Any clues as to how something so substantial got bent? For clarity the tie-rod is connected to the steering rack at one end and to the...
