As in title, my belts are due and I was thinking about maybe getting it cammed at the same time... Not too sure on the price all in though, maybe 1k? And will be getting like 190-195bhp? Looks like 438's are the way to go with standard ECU? I'm not too sure it's just a thought...
Any advice...
On further inspection it sounds as if the noise is coming from the engine bay so now i'm worried as i'm away from home. I'll get someone to take it up to 3000rpm later so I can confirm where abouts it's coming from and hopefully not ancillary wise!
Yeh no worries, I would have took you out earlier just been mega busy. Splashing out on her soon, getting a sabelt steering wheel, RS tuner and some 10mm spacers. Money pit these things ;)
Ah gutted. I managed to sell my old corsa in two days, and buy a 182 the next day lol. Nah mate, I'm in Plymouth at the min. Have you managed to get a ride in a 182 yet? I'll be back Monday and i'm free in the week to take you out in it if you want?
haha I don't think it's the input shaft then! My clutch pedal is also very stiff, but I still have a strong feelings it's to do with my new exhaust (heatsheild shagged) read somewhere that at a certain rev range it makes a horrid sound, which i'm sure it is but i'll investigate when its not raining.
when talking about the input shaft of the box, what would I hear at idle? I have a bad lumpy idle? But this is supposedly due to it being cammed but I have no proof of this which therefore I assume it's not been cammed and just one of the injectors is out.
Thanks for the help, i'm going to check it out tmorro. I didn't really test whether it was just second gear as i just wanted to get her home. When I had my exhaust fitted the heat shield was in rough shape said the bloke, i have a strong feeling he bodge jobbed it.
As in title I get a rattle/noise not really a grind but a noise which is odd enough to cause concern. I recently had a full cat back exhaust fitted, which has also started to rattle since this issue. I recently drove 200 miles and there was no problem at all, but it's been sat for a week since...
As in title I was just wondering what gaskets I'm going to need to refit my newly polished inlet?
Am I right in saying a 182 doesn't need a throttle body gasket?
many thanks :)
I've been reading up on this, there seem to be numerous answers to this? Basically my idle sits at the normal idle (think its like 900RPM) and it just seems rough (shakes me about in the car every so often). Some people say that this isn't a problem and that they have always suffered from this...
They seem fine to me. Everybody moans about them but I don't drive mental anyways so notice any change. I can understand your view if I was on a track but if I was gona do that I wouldn't even consider lowering springs lol
