The way i do is:
Crack hub nut off
Track rod end nut off
Two bolts holding ball joint to lower arm off
Support bearing clamp off
Pull shaft out of hub side
Pull shaft out of box (might be tight where the support bearing is, so give it a tap)
No need to drain oil unless it's already out from...
After all the bits you've changed, it will likely be lambda or injectors.
But as Brigsy said, get some diag done and see what the lambda is doing, see if it's switching ok in graph waveform.
Yeah i think i remember having to plug in to USB to set the firmware drivers up first.
I've not used it for years, it was a mates that i borrowed at the time.
Yeah rears do quite a bit on the Megs under heavy braking.
DS2500 or PBS will help a lot. My mate had RC6 all round on his 250 and it stopped like nothing else i'd been in.
Good idea removing the shim, i bet the backing plate does expand a bit when hot.
Can you turn ESP off on these, i think you can?
That's what usually catches people out on the Mk3's as well, it eats the rear pads.
Saying that, your were only road pads so that wouldn't help.
They sound a lot worse when grinding into gear.
You can get the damper weight for the shifter rod, but not sure how well it works.
I know people have filled the shifter with lead shot to dampen it that way.
