Giving the S2 some love

[Ian Simmonds]

Also, as a side note, a while ago I had a smoke issue and feared the worst, it was 'chugging out some soot' blipping the throttle after idle.... Anyway, cleared out the Positive Crankcase Ventilation pipework and its not done it again since. I think the turbo oil seals probably are getting long in the tooth though, and its on the agenda now with a refurbishable one coming over from Andyplym. I'll get it refurbished and fitted up....

Bit of a panic last week, all over nothing really... Here's the tale, on the way to work they've been pebble dashing the roads in that 'surface dressing' 20mph skid risk, kiwi rally stage kind of way.... Anyway, the S2 suddenly started squealing like a pig, especially when on lock, anyway, popped the wheel today, and the calliper/stone guard area was full of happily sticky summer tar and stones... So one good rake out and tidy up later, and the squealing has gone.... Bloomin' council bodge jobs....

OMG are you mad??? Hahaha I certainly wouldn't have the kahunas to have all 3 on the same day. Some would say that's pushing your luck hahaha

Brave man having not on the same day but well done. I thought it was bad enough having all 3 of mine in the same month haha.

Don't laugh, but the Rallyrep was booked in today as well, but I've got a few silly little jobs not done on that, so I'll take it through until mext month...

Had a lovely moment earlier, entered a dual carriageway from a short sliproad with the S2, and being in rude health and on a confidence high, saw a gap of the approaching traffic and launched away in first, full bore, snatched second and was bang on target for the gap... new BMW 3 series thingy dag-dag starts flashing headlights angrily and floors it, big plume of soot to make life awkward.... No worries, S2 goes into 'oh-yeah, want some?' mode and fooks orf smartish... The BMW, bless, is left smoking and at WOT, flashing its lights, and with an empty bit of tarmac.... Tragic....
