Anyone know a good garage in Wigan?
My wee sis is doing a course there for a few days, and her Hyundai coupe has developed some sort of brake issue.

I want to delete a backup file for an iPhone on my computer. Where would I find it? I haven't changed any settings on file systems in iTunes.

Windows XP:
\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

Windows Vista or Windows 7:
\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

Better method: In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Devices tab. Delete the one(s) you want to.

According to online calculators, my front and rear tyres are 18mm different in diameter,

Front : 205/45/17
Rear : 225/45/17

Is that right, thought they'd be the same ?....

Yeah it's right.
Middle number is percentage of the width. So same profile but wider tyre will have more sidewall.

Any defined lip on a brake disc is an MOT failure correct? and this would show that the pads are pretty much gone as well

Also EBC Greenstuff, good pads? or should i go for EBC Mintex which are £20 cheaper, but I know are good.

Greenstuff is £36 for front pair, Mintex are ~£16, but have always used Mintex

Definately need changing :doh:

Only passed its MOT 5 weeks ago :bang:

Nah got plenty of life in them yet wait until the MOT .

 

[RuSZ]

feels spongey under breaking.

maybe im still not used to the GP's brakes and drums after the Astras brakes

:yeahthat: lol

 

[RuSZ]

Fair enough.

Still thinking of doing them and getting them out of the way. just ordered new tyres for the fronts too

 

[dave]

thats not a worn lip its grown rust on the unused bit, tap edge with a hammer and it will all come off

 

[RuSZ]

Just me been over cautious then

Pretty much decided to do them. there starting to squek/squel a bit, braking is spongey.

So getting them done, and redoing the fluid.

Getting them done and out of my mind

 

[dave]

squek/squel is just dust

 

[ChrisUK]

Spongyness will be fluid, mine are as sharp as a dash of lemon juice to the eye.

 

[dombooth]

Same here, RosieG almost started shouting at me earlier until I said why I emergency stopped lol. (See smile thread. )
