It's been a while since I've fitted any to a Mk2 but I seem to remember the OE items spray a little low at speed anyway.

Sometimes you can get lucky with the cheaper items. Other times, not so lucky. I've always stuck with the PSA Original items for around £9-11 shipped and have never had a problem.

Probably cheap/clone eBay/ECP parts. Did they come in an official Peugeot/Citroen bag? If not, that'll almost certainly be the problem.

The fact you can smell it suggests it's an external leak rather than an internal issue (eg. Rings). Most common causes on these are: Top cover sealant has failed (Common with age) - Check rear joint for signs & Timing belt change *IF* required. ***DON'T USE SILICONE*** Upper breather plate...

I'll be in next Saturday but it'll be a bit of a busy one. If you wanted to pop in, just give me a call first on the number below to make sure I've not set the place on 0115-9721501

I'm closed until Monday 8th @James172 but I'll be in tomorrow until 14:00, if you wanted to pop over. Mick

We’ve used this gearbox cast since the late 70’s, it’s an old strobe light marker. You need to peg the crank on cyl1/4 at TDC (0 degrees) and then check the cam timing positions relative to that. The cam timing notch is eccentric so the timing notches need to be on the lower half of the cams...

They're currently looking for a 10mm socket I've just dropped.

As I said to you on the phone James, I'm mega busy with box rebuilds and clutches. I appreciate it's a "Super simple" job but I've only got one pair of hands and if they're busy... sorry if you find that a bit strange.

Easiest thing to try is remove the spacer from the car and place it against the rear of the wheel by hand. If it fits perfectly, you're ok and of there's an issue you'll easily see it.

I've ran PMS stud kits for years and never had issues. I've seen some customers with 2118's have *some* issues with generic hub-centric spacers though. They're normally due to a silly taper on the rear of the wheel Vs a larger chamfer on the spacer. This stops the wheel locating against the...

Before anything else, when you put the key in the ignition and turn the key, what does the red LED in the centre of the dash do... Stay on solid, go out or flash at you?

As above, this is because someone has played about with the pointer positions and they're now wrong. See video above for the correct position when the key is switched to on.

They do indeed need C2i's coding but I don't think they'll make it drive any better.
