I'm officialy a car mechanic !? - Saraj - 16-04-2018

Well chuffed with myself, as I fixed my own car yesterday, with the coil pack from ebay,

My sister came round with the same problem with her car, took the coil pack out of mine and put in hers, as exact same car, just hers is a 1.4 and mine is 1.6

and worked perfectly, so told her needs a coil pack, she going to order from ebay, and when it comes looks like ill be fitting it myself.

Love it when you dont have to pay a garage !

Whats next I can do? or maybe just wait for something else to go wrong on my car and then try to fix it?

Good job mate, now you know why most of us do it ourselves, the sense of achievement and knowing you did it without paying someone else Big Grin :laugh:

Maybe you're best off sticking to fixing cars and not driving them ?

:lol:

Just kidding mate, it's great that you sorted it, and it's a satisfying feeling to have done something a garage may have charged you loads for.

Steviewevie I was waiting for someone to say that, its something which Stav suggessted when I repaired the body work of my car, when I crashed it twice !

Its a learning curb for me, and I enjoy working with cars...
