    Rough feeling from front wheels.

    Just went for a blast round my local a/b roads. Anyway, driving at speed (50-80) on some sharp ish bends I'm getting a juddery feeling from the front end. It's on both sides. Any thoughts people? Could it be wheel bearings? There's no problems at any other time, just when fast cornering. Any...

    5 mins from Widfird Roundabout to Harlow. Give me a break! I don't care what you're driving. That's a 15-20 drive mate. And I have a very heavy right foot.

    "Shed of the year"

    Are those 'stealth' wheels? Looks like the wheels might fold underneath and it turn into a hovercar. A la Back to the Future. I wonder if he'll do a swap with my 172?

    New clutch supplied and fitted

    Just got mine back from Mr Clutch Chelmsford with 2year/20,000 mile guarantee. I paid £290. + £60 for cone and fork. Customer service was sh*te and it took 3 days, but I did have to have a new fork selector and gearbox cone which they had to wait for Renault to deliver. I was originally told...

    Ground Strap

    Take the strap off completely, give the strap ends and where it bolts onto the body and gearbox a good clean so that you get bare metal to bare metal connection and you should be fine. It'll most likely just be crap that's got in there not letting it earth properly.

    Juddering at biting point on the clutch.

    I'm Powerflex'd up at the front, including the Dog Bone. Im not so sure it's the clutch right now. It's weird. I went out to run an errand about 6 tonight. The car had been sat for 4.5hrs. Started and drive absolutely fine. Got to my destination about 4 miles away and as I stopped and reversed...

    Juddering at biting point on the clutch.

    Just a quick thought. Yesterday I did an oil and filter change. I managed to over fill the oil, but I realised this quite quickly and drained out the excess. But it did start smoking and a rattle from the exhaust on the test run down the road. That all stopped once I'd drained the sump. its...

    Juddering at biting point on the clutch.

    It happens in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Once moving at over 30 it's fine??? All my mounts seem to be fine, no unusual movements or anything. Really don't need this right now!

    Juddering at biting point on the clutch.

    Just clicked onto 68k. Is that something that could happen out of the blue? It was perfect until this morning!

    Juddering at biting point on the clutch.

    I doubt it's that mate, as it's a new Coil Pack. It feels mechanical.

    Juddering at biting point on the clutch.

    All of a sudden I've got this juddering when I'm pulling away or changing gear at low speeds. It's just started out of the blue and I really don't like driving it like this. Anyone know what I've done and what I can do to sort it. Cheers

    Someone help! It's driving me mad!

    I've got K-Tec solid top mounts. Maybe a service is in order?

    I cool with the occasional twanging, but this is silly. I've just had it tracked and dont really want to take them apart, but I might have to. FML

    Someone help! It's driving me mad!

    Ok, I've got K-Tec coilovers on the front, they've always done it, but ever since I adjusted them (lowered it) at low speeds I'm getting this Ping! Pong! Sound. It does it in all directions, when I'm stood still or just parking up. It's all the time. I expected it after I had a tinker, hoping it...

    K Tec Coilovers

    Just done that. I've dropped it another 10mm too to where is really like it. Lets see what happens.

    Thanks buddy. I'll have a search.

    K Tec Coilovers

    Not sure how I measure how low it is? If I measure off the top of the bracket that holds the ABS cable to the bottom of the bottom spring it's 115mm. Does that make sense? let me know on the 'screw' please mate.

    K Tec Coilovers

    I was thinking that. They are 205-45-16 tyres by the way. I would like to firm up the front end a bit though, so if anyone knows if there are stiffer springs, that would be great.

    K Tec Coilovers

    Morning peeps! I've got a set on my car, they were on when I bought it. I'm not sure if the model, they are black, with black springs. I wanted to lower the front quite a bit, but the wheels were catching the arch liners quite badly. I've got it the the stage where I can drive and it only rubs...
