Im almost due my 67.5k service and doing some research.
Just reading the book, service interval indicator and associated checks only go as far as 60k.
Is there anything nasty due at 67.5k, or is it a cyclical (sp?) table that repeats as necessary?
Oh, BTW, prolly get an Xtreme Scoobies post just before yours Pete,
he hee

Cheers Guys
got another point...
my NSF disc(?) is having a bit of a squeal at the mo. Getting embaressing in town as its getting VERY loud, (people are holding their teeth like Ive told them a bad dentist story)
On a southern area meet last monday (hi guys) I was repeatedly told that changing the pads will do it.....
Do I have to change sets together i.e. both fronts, or even all four together? I am keen to take on advice, but if the squealing is intermittant (sp?) then could it not be a warped disc?
yadda yadda yadda, you cant tell for sure without seeing my car (thats obvious), just asking for a hunch (prolly from Xtreme first, then Pete just after LOL)
I do hope you dont keep a record of all the free advice youve both given me as my soul already belongs to someone else (to get the car in the first place)
Andy...... (right then, who`s gonna be first)...he hee

I was going to let Pete go first this time......though he has a life (smilie here but can't yet do them).....I'm glued to this.....(red open mouth here)
Squeak from n/s or o/s in order of what I would suspect...though need to see the car for sure....
1. Pads are low
2. Discs are worn
3. Combination of the above
3. Shims from pads could be missing not replaced when last changed
4. Wheel bearing gone
5. It may not come from the wheel area it could be a gearbox, gasket leak or an other problem
6. Unlikely to be warped disc as you would feel that under breaking through the steering wheel
7. When changing pads do the fronts as a set, it may not be necessary for rears as they only see 15% of braking.....

FerrariNutter...
Got another symptom, sorry.
under some aggressive braking the car pulls everso slightly to the opposite side (therefore indicatiing that maybe the NS brake isnt biting???)
Andy... (gonna see dealer for brake pads tomorrow unless theres somewhere in the PORTSMOUTH area that does em in stock). will do both fronts together cos even if it is the disc new pads dont hurt..
Cheers.

Are the pads interchangeable front to rear?
could I do a sneaky swap as a test, or swap NS to OS to see if the symptoms switch sides also.
Caliper sounds bad to me
Sorry for ignorance, my experience got as far as a Tamiya MY97 (although I did strip the wishbones once, oh, hang on no i didnt I only though about it).
