    K&N Filter removed Engine still louder

    Ears, your only defence when you are asleep Yes thanks I have another look. After k&n it began to have a little roar and it's still roaring now, before that it was like a mouse.

    K&N Filter removed Engine still louder

    No it's not back as it used to be. The engine sounds as if the K&n filter is still inside even though I swapped it back to the original stock filter. Before without the K&N fighter the engine was much quieter. We always commented on how nice and quiet the engine was. When the K&n filter went...

    K&N Filter removed Engine still louder

    Thank you. After the k&n filter the engine sounded more lively and I could suddenly hear the tickover, which I didn't before. The k&n didn't make any difference in fuel consumption and I thought it was actually nicer driving quiet as it was before and decided to swap it back to the old original...

    K&N Filter removed Engine still louder

    No it remained as loud as it became after the k&n filter was fitted. I swapped it back yesterday to make sure and no difference. In or out both the same. And I know how the engine sounded before. When I took it out last week I expected it to return to the way it was before (nice and quiet) but...

    Head lamp light beam correct forward pointing

    Hello Can i pick your brains please, I can't find anything on line about left and right beam position on the road. Only up and down. The right shorter beam on my car and the longer left beam, start about 2 meters left of the roads center which looks a bit odd. I then had it adjusted at an mot...
