Need to sell my Ph1 172 it's out of test as the clutch has gone ( still drives but judders think it's release bearing) 98000 miles ish Cam belt done less than 2 years ago by ddc in Doncaster. Tidy other than rusty rear arches and age related marks. Eibach proline springs, Scorpion exhaust...

O.K cheers for the help I'll have another look but I suppose what ever the problem it needs splitting now :-(

It moves every direction by a few inch, just sort of rattling about in there.

Yeh massive help cheers, With the cable disconnected it moves a lot which is where my noise is coming from its the metal fork catching on the spinning clutch. Unfortunately I'm not in a position for it to be worth splitting the box as it's a second car, the wife does around 15 miles a week in...

Following on from my clutch issue on my Ph1 I have just released the clutch cable from the box end and the fork is just wobbling around like it's snapped off, I can move it in every direction. Is it a box out job to replace? I was hoping not but I think I can guess the answer!

That's better than I thought tbh just need to make sure it's definitely the clutch and not a box problem.

Cheers used the powerflex mount in the end, Another one of those jobs I wish I had done ages ago :-)

Where is the best place to order the uprated rubber that sits in the original mount. There was some on ebay powerflex I think but can't find any now. Sorry for not searching but I'm out and stuck on Slowband so it's easier to ask.here :-)

This thread just keeps giving :-)

Cleaned the wifes car today

Heading south just now looked obsessively clean :-)

Lol :)

MOT tester should be able to tell, Maybe the cat is there and he thinks someone has removed its insides? Anyhow my phase 1 is still on its origional cat but failed on emissions a couple of years ago and a new lambda (sp?) cured it :-)
