So, as everyone has probably seen by now, the Track car is no more. Sad times, but I needed a bigger car, so the DCI is going as well.
On Monday, I become the new owner of a 2008 Ford S-Max 2.2 Titanium in Silver.
I can't tell you exact mileage, as it was in a box I bought, but it didn't slip, etc, and covered less than 1000 miles in my ownership.
Still can see the word "Valeo" printed on it!
Nothing that we could see/ feel. Jacked it up and checked everything and all was tight, and couldn't detect any play.
As has been said, the toe is massively out.
He's contacted the garage and is taking back Monday (as they're down the road from his work).
Not my car, but a mate has a real problem with his steering.
Had his tracking done this morning and the steering is snatching without warning, be it after hitting a bump or just mid corner.
We thought something was loose, so hacked it up but everything seems tight.
New shocks, top mounts, no...
Yup, have been for 5 years on my 1.5dci MK3
No leaks, ride is firm, but handles pretty well. I ran Nervasport 17" wheels for most of that time too.
Took it to llandow, oulton park, Rockingham.
A few folks on here have them. Some of them have removed the rear adjusters to "slam" them.
If you look up the word "bender" in the Oxford dictionary, you'll see a picture of the robot from Futurama, and a pic of someone next to their RB with stripes on it.
My pants will stay firmly up but some goodies could be thrown in (from what's left at least).
And it's not a cup shell, although theres no suspension anyway.
You can definitely swap mk2 and mk3 wheels with each other, but I don't know about your specific wheel.
I ran megane wheels on my mk3 (with spacers), because as you say, they share the same PCD.
