Its funny the life we lead, not chatting to neighbours etc, he, im guessing, is basically a stranger. Im (sort of) the same only speaking to the immediate ones. Go have a chat, whats the worst that could happen? If you HAVE to write a note, brief is best. I.e YOUR CAR IS NOISY, ESP AT 4 AM

Next time you see him just point out he is doing untold damage to his engine letting it idle for so long when cold and it would warm up quicker and would be much better for his engine if he were to simply drive it moderately for 5 minutes immediately after he starts it.
And if that doesn't work, yup dog poo up the exhaust! ;D

:lol: you lot are truly special, boys and girls of my own kind, at 4:30am dogshit seems a bit tame was thinking more along the lines of oily rag and a match,
as for talking to him looking at him i would need to learn gruntish, he has his "scooby boyfriend" come round on a sunday and they wash them together does'nt look the brightest, looks the type that if i spoke to him he would grunt and then put the windows in on my camper.
it's a difficult one as even though he's not a neighbour i talk to i never like to be "petty" but i'm gonna have to do something as it's really pissing us off.
and terrier man if it comes to it i'm on first name terms with that type of fella, so free :msn4:

had a similar problem, but parking related.
way back when (20+yrs ago) when i lived at my parents, the guy next door who had his own drive but couldnt be arsed opening his gates, used to park right on the back of my baywindow bus, right where the road narrowed. this left me having to pull in the mirrors on my van and reverse through the narrow gap without mirrors. i had a polite word about the situation and he laughed and told me to feck off. i am quite sure he parked further back from that point to make it more difficult.
not to be defeated, early one morning i got a container removed his sump plug, drained his oil and refitted the plug.
i never saw his old car again but always gave him a wave at the bus stop :msn4:

I had this a few years ago with a chap that lived opposite me, he would start the car in the winter (October - April) at 5:30 and leave it running for ten mins. One of my other neigbours jumped in the "warming" car one morning and drove off :mrgreen:
He got the car back a couple of days later finding it in the Village where we live and so far has resisted the urge to warm his car again.
Get the BarryBoys onto him once his cars been ripped on the net he will sell it in shame :lol:

A quicker method is to make stencil. Something simple and easily understood, dont want a misunderstanding. "TURN YOUR FUCKING ENGINE OFF PRICK" would work well. Once done walk over, place on the veh part of your choice. Then with your tin of Nitro Mors (other paint strippers are available) and a brush, paint over said stencil and watch your art work take shape before your very eyes.

First off, have a pleasant, happy word with the guy, reminding him that whilst he may be wide awake at 4am, most people regard that as the middle of the night and that any tiny noise is magnified many times over by the fact that everything else is asleep and silent.
If that doesn't work, get the neighbours together and all rev the bollocks off your cars at 1.30 am right outside his bedroom window and see how he likes that.

We could do a EarlyBay line up outside his House at 4-30am on the weekend, with a mass rev-up :lol: He'll get the message then.
I once had a problem with a load of barry boys keeping us awake til stupid hours in the new car park they built behind my house, we tried asking them niceley, saying we had a newborn kid etc and they would get mouthy then fuck off and come back half hour later. Same if we called the police..
eventually i just emptied a big bag of 50mm clout nails all over the entrance and exit before they turned up one night ,then laughed at them all getting their spare wheels and jacks out .
it did put them off for a while, then they put barriers up to stop them
if it was me i would either; position a handful of 40 / 50mm clout nails behind each tyre in the direction he's leaving,/ let all his tyres down then rub dogshit on his doorhandles, then lie there with a smug grin at 4.30 that morning, knowing that he aint getting to work that day and he's got shitty fingers 8)
he'll get the message..
