How's it feel on the road Mike?

The valve clearances would be my first port of call, depending on the severity of the tap its possible it could a little end. Very hard to be certain solely on a description. Irrelevant of vehicle age it shouldn't be tapping so something certainly a miss somewhere.

(y) Still here mate

I've got to keep an eye on what goes on :p

I can verify what Daz has said, we fitted them and it drives bang on!

We had a 2002 blue phase 1 v6 in a couple of weeks ago and it had done 4k, absolutely stunning in every manner and he valued that at 55/60k

was it expensive?

Used to be mine, Probably 6 years ago now! I loved it, sold it to a guy shrewsbury way

Y349VRP??

mine was 119. Loved it and miss it :( I've no idea where it is now. I see #94 is on ebay

All good here thank you mate! Strange times but you've got to keep moving forward :) Are you still selling at the minute? Must be a strange time selling cars.

We charge 5 hours to do belts on a 172/182 with AC.

Stunning car and fantastic colour, the one and only petrol blue we have seen in our 14 year Birchdown history. Colour looks better in the flesh I must say. Andy

I love scarab green, I had an exclusive and that was my best bit

Its a vac feed to the acoustic valve on the inner wing. Certainly cant see it being the cause of unstable idle. Has it had a cambelt recently? Belt timing is probably the biggest cause of unstable idling.

No Problem Andy, Long/soft brake pedal? I'd say you couldn't of had any brakes mate but all went to plan (y)

Nor me!...

The destination of the gearbox repair was discussed with the owner and based on experience and feedback the gearbox specialist used was a sound bet on price and quality of repair. As a business the who, what's and why's isn't important to us as the key objective is to get the car in a roadworthy...

Hi Andy, I was just going through darrens email and saw a link he had sent for your noise. In honesty listening to your noise it points me towards a ball joint. Has it ever had any recently? Cheers Andy

DA05UCM, really tidy inferno! Previous owner loved it like a child!

I went through the car with the mot tester and they have a one man testing setup with motorised shaker plates and they are quite forceful and there was no sign of movement when tested. The hub nut was checked and reset to specified settings, it wasn't far away as it was to be honest. I drove the...

I know the guy, worked for him from school! He loves to talk, his videos are worth a watch for the giggle factor!

With it being a cup there will be no auxiliary belt tensioners, as long as it has no a/c. It could be the alternator but without hearing the noise it's impossible to diagnose! As mentioned dephaser noises go when the engine speed goes above 1200 rpm so I think you can rule that out!

This thread is making me full of want! :(

Proper job that! :) Some proper gifted folk on this site!!

According to Autodata, 710G + or - 35G. that's correct, done loads here at that amount and never had a problem. (SBV116, works account!)

Its looking stunning mate! You have certainly done her proud! Everytime i look at the pictures it makes me sad and miss it but nice to see she is still going strong. I will stick my 10 pence worth in, phase 2 rear bumper makes the car. Thats why i fitted it! I hope the new owner treats it well...

I spotted it aswell! :)
