K:MEWAX:IT this has got my pink porsche looking very cherry red again. i have spent loads on other wax's and polishes but none can hold a light to this. http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... yId_165527 |

Did your tappets rattle just on startup when cold, or all the time.? Mine's a bit tappy from cold but dissapears completly when engine fully warmed up. Might give it a try. |

Been using Bilt Hamber Auto Balm on mine for about a year now. The gloss is great, bit more effort than Meguiars but seems to last longer & despite the car being outside all the time has retained its gloss even with a foot of snow on it over the winter? |

I have noisy tappets on mt S2 when cold which take a long time to quieten down and after inspection the engineer suggested I replace all the lifters as cyl 3. 4 inlets were loose in the head. Anyway I could not afford the cost so I am currently living with it and have tried numerous grades of oil, and oil treatments including Amtech (which was expensive) all have helped a little but the stuff mentioned here has really worked a treat. I still have some slight tappet noise on start up but much more in the background and it quietens down almost immediately, so for £6.00 it is my best fix yet. |
