    Replaced track rods, now got a CLONK from suspension?

    Replaced track rods, now got a CLONK from suspension?

    Hmmmm, I have had a look but will investigate further in the morning ;) The bottom ball joint is only about 1 year old and the track rods are definately in and tight up against the rack, I had a think and "stepped" spanner so space wasnt too much of an issue :) but I know what you're saying lol...

    TOYO PROXES R1-R

    I have these on mine (as Scott said) and tbh I havent got a bad word to say about them.

    Steering clicking and gone a bit vague

    Basically I've got the (fairly common it seems) clicking noise coming from my steering when manouvering at low speed and has seemed to have gone a bit vague and wanders around a bit, especially when accelerating quite hard. Its been like it a couple of months now but SEEMS to be getting worse...

    Rs tuner ordering

    Where does it say you get a 98ron map free? I cant see it :o If that is the case then surely the price is 199 Euro's for a standard RStuner without the EOBD II module? Which is about £155......So how are you having to pay £180~ if the map is free?? Confused.com

    Couple of gearbox questions

    If u jack the car up and look under where the gear lever would be inside, there will be a rod going to the front of the car, to the bottom of the gearbox. There is 1 bolt that connects the 2 parts together....its basically a bit of trial and error of adjusting it by small amounts and nipping...
