Got a wee electric compressor in there but only drives a couple miles before it's under 10psi again. Called in to Kwikfit n they said no chance with what they have there - and please don;t all start shitting on them...they fill a niche.
Guest Ambermile Posted 24 April 2019 Report Posted 24 April 2019 (edited) So on a similar subject, the car has Jade R wheels with these silly little wheel nuts... but the spare is a standard GT wheel (with a brand new P Zero ). Will the same wheel nuts hold the standard wheel on or is it the usual Toyota flat washer bit? Only needs to get me three miles to the tyre place... Edited 24 April 2019 by Ambermile

Guest Ambermile Posted 25 April 2019 Report Posted 25 April 2019 With huge thanks to Arizona for coming over this evening I am now mobile again Dirty I know but does the trick... Now need to sort a pair of tyres
arizona Posted 25 April 2019 Report Posted 25 April 2019 Happy to help , I've eaten a bit too much chocolate now - nearly bedtime and i've got a sugar rush
Guest Ambermile Posted 27 April 2019 Report Posted 27 April 2019 Just replaced all the nuts, lucky I did since half of them were rusted to the point that a slightly used key would strip the splines
Guest Ambermile Posted 28 April 2019 Report Posted 28 April 2019 Just sayin' Old and New. No, I didn't replace with the same style, I used the torx ones.
