i want the best tho. as when i brought the car it had an oil change a week before i got it, and i think they probably put the cheapest thing they could find in it. Started getting a Ticking Sound at low revs from drivers side of engine (i think, cant really locate it!)
And whats the price for the vaux stuff?
Thanks Everyone.
