  1. No one can question the durability.... I should think rust is going to be the thing that'll be the emery at some point.
  2. Hi They have measured the chassis and not taken the mod's into account, If the wear was confined to about 10% of the tyre then the issue is camber. If the wear and given the tyre a sharp leading edge then to criminal is toe. We correct many VW's and can fit adjuster bushings so we can deal with the problems.
  3. Hi Rajen and welcome to the wim forum. Thanks for the in-depth information. LOC UK contacted me 10yrs ago due to members ongoing inner front tyre wear. After research on some members' cars i found the reason, which have been widely used thereafter. The problem is the castor position, which is too low and not adjustable directly. I found by moving the castor position to -10' it will greatly displace the toe angle, when the toe is corrected it indirectly increases the castor. The camber and caster control how much the camber will lean on a bend. The OEM castor allows to much lean. So a target of-10' minutes front camber with increased castor has proven to stop the tyre wear. All other angles should be set to the OEM positions. Important The caster my go into the red, so out of the Lexus tolerances, this is fine. Increment of measurement is 60' to a degree not 100' Many shops don't measure the castor saying it's not adjustable, It's critical it's measured. Feel free to ask any questions.
  4. Thanks.....bloody ugly/ scary to me..... I think these are deep water fish don't you think
  5. What is this fish and why are the teeth black
  6. Seems to be bulletproof..... Regarding the clutch is the pedal high now?
  7. Looks like some form of detergent spry gun?.... Looks like it's in a zoo or something alike.
  8. Reads like you have a brilliant work history.
  9. I think he was busted by the name
  10. This one will not buff out.....
  11. Excellent..... Please note, of you feel the dampers need adjusting don't adjust the front and rear... Let's say you feel the need to adjust them, do so sequentially. if thet's say you adjust the front and it didn't help put it back then adjust the rear. Owners who adjust front and rear just migrates the problem.
  12. Yeah but at least it was shiny s**t...that was a terminal loss of money.
