Dogbone, mate. What car did it come off? Ph1 172 or later?

Not rocket science. I've got a second hand box for sale..

On the back? (; Need to get it jacked up and have a look, mate. Could be any number of things.

To check wheel bearings, jack up and rock wheel. You'll soon know.

Re: 2118's. Told you so. x Love this.

Failsport mechanics know no bounds. (It was on axle stands, too.)

Awesome. Best Iceberg on the site, bar none.

Re: Steering pulling to the right after gearbox replacement but tracking is spot on?? Subframe is impossible to align incorrectly.

GDI are no more, mate. Speak to Fred/TDF/JMS depending where you are in the country

Like I've said before- <3 the fubar

One's for a Ph1 172 (straight dogbone), the other's for a Ph2 172/182 (twisted type)

PMSL. Each to their own. Some people just like to drive their cars, not spend hours cleaning the engine bay!

I've done a few myself. It's not rocket science. All depends how handy you are with the spanners! (:

Nope. Wear and tear. It does come as part of the kit.. worth mentioning that there's no real rush to change it. I had mine go on my Ph1. Drove it for 4k with the bearing making funny noises, lol.

I'd imagine so, yeah. Clutch kit's about £100, but most of the cost will be labour. ):

So the revs were going up, but no physical acceleration? Clutch is slipping, if so.

Clutch release bearing itself costs next to nothing. Gearbox needs removing to fit it though, so mostly labour. While it's out, change the clutch too. Valeo kit is about £100 from GSF/Euro Car parts.

As said, JMS. James (one of the boys there) is breaking a Ph2 172- he might even have a subframe kicking around!

Not true. Most Ph2 172's and 182's use the ABS for the speedo. Can fit whatever box you want to 'em, fit and go. I've got a box in the shed, if you need one matey..

Use an old speedo sensor, if you want to do it properly. Otherwise, a bit of black tape covering it would do. Just to stop muck getting in.

Spot on.

IMO, go to a local meet. Compare it with how all the other cars there sound.

PMSL. Mileage, condition and trade in are irrelevant. It's never worth £4.5k. As Dan said. I can't believe this s**t's still open.

Oh, and it's the dephaser. Not dephraser.

Semi-synthetic will be fine, mate. As for the noise- let someone who knows the cars have a listen. I've found that most I've heard /owned don't sound smooth. What's the noise like? Ticky, rattly, knocking, lumpy?

This thread is hurting my head. As said- buy parts from a car breaking. Bolt them on yourself. Shouldn't cost you more than £200.

If he pays someone to do it, agreed. If it was me, find someone off here local who can fit it all if you're not able. Bumper- £80-100 Bonnet- £80 Light- £50 Grille- £30-40 Thinking about it, if you want to sell it, i'll give you £700. (;
