As title really!!! Ever since i changed my gearbox oil I get a crunch changing into third gear at high revs. The only thing that has changed is a rubber shroud that was on the end part of the clutch cable at the gearbox end has disintergrated and fallen off so my theory is that the few mm...

As title really where is the auto adjust ratchet as ive looked at the pedal assembly where I assumed it would be and I can't see it!! I think it may be missing some teeth so I just want to check it. Thanks

I changed my oil about 1000miles ago. I went to halfords and the only recomended fully synth 5w40 grade oil they had was Castrol Edge recomended for Turbo Diesels. Now I probably should have known that diesel and petrol oils are different but I didn't. I checked with the mechanic at Halfords...

As title really changed my gearbox oil now when downshifting at high speeds into 3rd I get a crunch its fine at low speeds and when changing up but its still annoying. Never did it with the old oil. Could this be a mount or linkage or is it the syncro going? Just seems wierd that it only...

Anyone on here? I was in an AudioSoft van?!?!?

Was just cable tying a wiring loom up under the glove box when i notcied a neatly wrapped wire with a connector on the end of it (not connected to anything). It took a matter of minutes to trace it back to the ultrasonic sensor thats on the A-pillar which explains why I have never been able to...

See this car almost everyday on the way to and from work. It was behind me for most of the 417 from about 5.40 today.

I have got an itg filter and better free flowing air pipes that I have done from the guides section of the forum. Can I assume it would be a waste of money purchasing a Cup racer airbox to replace the 2 tubes with 1 larger one. I would expect performance increases to be next to nothing but...

Some idiot in Tesco's car park has scrapped some paint off my rear bumper and driven off. The mark is the size of a 50p piece and goes straight down to the the plastic underneath. Would I have to get the whole bumper resprayed, or can it just be covered up? What would you guys recomend DIY...
