Yep, which is why I asked that question. Seems to be two separate items in the opening post :S

Caster should be 3 00' (+-30') as I understand it? Taken from here

I've never heard that before :S

Discs as in brake discs?

Looks like my old Magnex did, sits well too :) Nice looking car there pal!

It's a 5 minute job either side. Undo the screw then lift the handle out forwards. Unhook the linkage cable and you're good to go.

I remember our old XR3i (back in the day) had no roof aerial, it had an internal window mounted one and we had no problems with it.

I have two front Cup shocks that I couldn't sell for £30.... :dapprove:

A reminder... No further warnings will be given.

Yeah for sure! Maybe this Friday, check the meets section mate! ;)

:o You got yours sorted then John? :)

Can I ask - what's a 1.2 QS5?

Tweeks used to do them haven't seen them recently though. You mean for keeping the adjusters clean?

Check the earth at the rear of the clocks.

TDC - Top Dead Centre sensor. Down to the passenger side of the engine bay, above the gearbox if my memory serves me correctly. Basically tells the ECU what air/fuel is required and thus can result in lumpy running if it's faulty/dirty. Loads of threads on here about it with pictures etc.

Rough running and wanting to stall could be a TDC issue also, maybe try cleaning it.

7J is the width - 7 inches. Bore has to be correct or spigot rings would be needed to fit the alloys.

So you switch it on and get the green light but when pressing the steering buttons nothing happens? Is that correct? Is that the same with all the steering buttons or just the + and - ones?

I do mine at 36K.

Welcome :) I'm near Skipton too, just over the border in Lancashire. Where abouts are you?

Make sure you know the radio code before disconnecting the battery!

Welcome :) First thing, check the main earth (or -ve) connection to the engine from the battery. Speedos will often stop intermittantly due to a loose connection behind the clocks, check this also. Have you replaced the upper engine mount, I'm lead to believe this is a common failure...

Water and engines don't mix! Change the plugs for the NGK ones ASAP as these engines don't like the wrong brand in them for long. What light is lit on the dash?

It will help yes, it will help eliminate things. Could be a number of things making it sound rough. Have a search on here for "dephaser".

Re: just brought this strut brace? Rears are the same, fronts can differ due to engine bay space.

I used a fairy liquid/warm water solution and mine came up well :)

Sounds more sinister than the lambda sensor as that wouldn't cause the car to cut out. Have a look around your ECU in the engine bay and check for any damaged cables.

There's nothing really to torque up, lol! :S The discs are on locators that's all as they are held in place by the wheel bolts ultimately and the pads are changed by slackening the carrier off.

No.

Programming is dealer only as far as I know so probably one hour's labour minimum. Yep the decoder ring only receives the signal so a spare should be fine. The immobiliser is within the ECU from memory so is 'locked' to the particular engine. The remote unlocking and immobiliser function...
