You guessed it - Ms "Smug about her ride height being spot on" is not so smug now!! Lets just say that if Wriggly was a Trophy, it'd be spot on!!
Best find a place that does pump ups and ask if they operate a barter system!!!

Dont forget that ride height is dependant on temparature , it's meant to be measured at 17 deg c and you have to make an allowance of 0.5 mm for every degree below that. So as its about 3 degrees here today then you're really 7mm higher than you think you are (if that makes sense).

As Nick has said, you have to factor in the temperature in your calculations. It might not be that bad.

Ally

It might be worth checking if you have a leek in any of the Hydragas system. I do and apparently it is a common fault with a leeky cone at the top of each corner. Pumping it up just means that the fluid leeks out until it settles to the pressure where it doesn't escape any more.

There is a full explanantion on Deiter's site here http://www.mgfcar.de/hydragas/blownhydra.html

Henry's still a little bit on the high side... Even though the manual says it's right. I get confused!

Henry is my only car, so I use him every day. I travel from Summertown to Drayton St Leonard, which is 12 miles each way, with a good portion of it down country lanes (very bumpy).
