how is this for bad luck
1. get spray dye for my carpet advertised that it could cover a whole suv carpet but only get 1/4 of mine covered :meh:
2. i get the bleed valve that doesnt fit the pipes and the pipe that came with the valve wont fit over the parts which it should fit over
3 my seats dont have the proper subframes
4 when tried to do the white ring technique the head of one of the screws just rounded orr, so now there is no way in hell of getting it out.
5when pulling the pipew off of the turbo i nearly slice half of my thumb off and now its full of oil and i cant get it out lol and my mum and dad are on holiday so it myt get infected!!
im so angry dont know what to do now :rant: :rant:
worst day ever
