  1. If the cones are that badly damaged the cups inside the hub are probably gone too.

  2. Generally, if you're complaining about no action from a Solicitor, it probably means you have no case, and a Solicitor can't help you. So what you're really saying here is you want a shyster Solicitor who'll proceed your case without due regard towards ethics and merit.

  3. My experience with solicitors was entirely different. They were quite happy to fire off letters to each other as long as they were billing me at £150 a letter.

  4. I got the impression from my dealings that they were primarily interested in milking as much money from the situation than getting a suitable outcome for myself and the other party.

  5. I know a painter who can repair those so you wouldn't notice. cost for painting is £50 GBP. It would cost more to dismantle and reassemble though.

  6. What happens if something sells and the buyer changes their mind much later or makes a claim about something not as described or counterfeit?

  7. You could go to Ballycastle then get the Ferry to Campbelltown in Scotland.

  8. I parked partially on yellows in Coleraine outside a hardware place. I went in to collect a lock. I only left the car for a few minutes and got a ticket. My first in about 25 years of driving. Derry wardens are slacking or maybe it's too out of their way.

  9. I think social media pressure only really works on the likes of Twitter where the VW account probably has millions of followers, the 2000 subscribers of this subreddit is not gonna create any pressure I’m afraid.

  10. The solicitor I might have used is the solicitor for the VW franchise. I reckon he gets more money from them.

  11. I don't really have the time or inclination. I wouldn't be rushing to the same dealer for another car at the moment.

  12. I shared a house with a Greek guy in 1996. He was quite anti-British.

  13. Indeed. A group of Kenyans recently won compensation from the British government for war crimes there.

  14. They used to be caught frequently in the Foyle near Derry and Faughan. I caught one over 40 years ago which was 1 1/2 pounds. I thought it was a big trout until it came to the surface.

  15. I have literally never once been at a gun range, where guns are shot, and been upset about hearing guns.

  16. I have a .308 with a 26 inch barrel. I got an MDT muzzle brake for it. The very first shot I took with it on blew my empty scope box off the bench next to me.

  17. For some people customising their bike is part of their enjoyment of cycling.

  18. Ok. When I said self driving I didn’t mean faulty climate control

  19. The point I was making is they can even get climate control to work. They can't find the error in the software.

  20. But computer vision isn’t responsible for regulating car temperature?

  21. If a computer can't adjust the temperature, why would you trust it to drive your car?

  22. Why overtake in a 50kph zone? If there are two lanes then fine. But on single carriageway in a built up areas you are the arsehole.

  23. If it's a 50kph zone and the driver in front is doing 30kph with a clear road ahead do you not think it's ok to pass?

  24. Compared to a quality external cup headset they are completely open to water. I serviced a Scott foil recently which had a 'scoop' on the top tube into which aero spacers went. This 'scoop' had the added effect of directing water into the headset which as a result was completely rotten.

  25. Yes exactly like that. I kept pictures of it. Absolutely appalling design when it comes to functionality. But I guess it looks nice.

  26. I got this wheel set as a gift from a friend, but someone told me it is fake. How is everyone’s thoughts on it? Just want to make sure it is safe to use.

  27. I got the thermometers with steel probes. So the driver side of the car peaked at 69.6 degrees Celcius today on the drive home. The passenger side was 13.8 at the same time.

  28. I had my climate control sometimes blow air that was obviously not what the value was set to. It was never as extreme as 42c!! However each time it happened, rebooting the infotainment system fixed the problem.

  29. The air from the vent was definitely hotter than 42C. The LCD screen went completely black. It showed 42.3 after I let it cool down.

  30. I was a catholic student in the early 1990s at a time when it appeared being Catholic was enough to get you shot. I used to chance the bus through East Belfast to go to Dave Kane Cycles.

  31. To me the most likely explanation is that the frame broke from the crash.

  32. Candles give off a lot of soot too. If you have used them a lot in every room the entire house might need repainted

  33. Could the 'Derry language' have the same recognition and funding as Ulster Scot's which is basically English spoken in a Ballymena accent.

  34. As a student I sometimes got the train to Derry from Belfast. It took an hour longer compared with the bus and I also had to walk to the bus station from the train station. I did this as there was sometimes a special offer on the train.

  35. He treated the whole of Mill Strand primary school pupils, staff and parents to a meal last year. Extremely generous of him and great memories for the kids.

  36. I have a muzzle brake on a .22 rifle. The holes almost became closed over. I tried soaking in various solvents. Eventually I had to use a steel pick. It was hard but brittle.

  37. So, I’ve just come into this sub fresh. We’re looking into a new car, first time ever for a new new car and I’ve been looking at electric. We live on the east coast and the other half is from the west, quite rural.

  38. Charging can be complex. You need to set up accounts with every company. I set up with EVChargeonline, ESB and Monta. I failed with BP as I didn't have an internet connection then. I had an EV in November. It went back after about 10 days and I got it on Friday.

  39. This is all great info I had no idea about. Thanks for explaining it! I would have thought all I needed to do was turn up with a card. Definitely helps when thinking if it’s right for me.

  40. I also find I'm walking more and having less temptation to buy crisps and sweets in the filling station.
