    Bl**dy hell

    Just jacked up my willy and reached in to look at the damaged spring. A whole half a turn of spring has snapped off the bottom. Judging by the ends id say it has been like that for a while. Makes you wonder about the last owners. Driving around in a miss handling williams, looks like they never...

    Williams coolant

    Do Williams take special coolant? If so what kind? If so is it ok to top up with normal coolant in emergencies? Someone told me they take a special coolant.

    Williams springs

    Just phoned Renault to see how much front suspension springs are and they said i have to look on the spring for a blob of paint so they can tell what springs i need. Aparently different springs have different colours on them. Is this right? Cant they tell from the vehicle make and model? I would...

    124,000 mile williams help needed

    £100 each :@ Alignment is fine. But ive got a broken suspension spring on the near side front. The end of the spring is curled up slightly. This might explain why the car pulls to the near side slightly. Any idea how much a new spring is (obviously ill have to do both). Been quoted £55 for...

    124,000 mile williams help needed

    Two new michelin pilots and handling is transformed. Play in steering wheel is much reduced. Getting wheels aligned at 4 so well see if that completely cures handling. The old tyres were H and should have been V grade. Also the wear was bad on side wall and was likely last guy had been running...

    124,000 mile williams help needed

    Ok just had RAC out to look at my car. He said its probably not the bearing as it only has lateral movement in the drivers side wheel, no vertical movement. Also said it was safe to drive. Tyres are really worn on the side walls which was probably a combination of miss aligned wheels and low...

    124,000 mile williams help needed

    Im gonna go with ND Hill if the prices are similar for the cam belt as he seems to be the man plus he lives near to my parents. Ive found a local man to do the basics. Ive had a few ppl look at the play in the wheel and it seems that their is some slight play in the offside track rod. Any idea...
