.............but no where near the feel of a MK2. I whipped the door card off my 197 the other day, i was happy to see they have changed the white popper clips that cause so many of the rattles. They now have a rubber lining around them. Looks like they do learn sometimes!
Dash top off. The things that rattle the most are around the heater vents and around the clocks. The problem comes from where the hard plastics are bonded to the 'soft touch' part. They basically are melted together. But over time the joins become loose, and then vibrate. I used some epoxy glue...
You sure fella?

I had my first around June 2007, looked the same as that. I bought it on the performance French car mag review which mentioned that Janspeed made it, and iirc they had it dyno'd there on their Cup. The second one i had was...
End of 2007. Think it came out on the R27, then the Cup, standard 197 followed as well. Tbh its nothing to write home about, I've had an early 2006 197, and now a 197 Cup, maybe see an extra 2mpg if you're lucky!
Charcoal/carbon cannister purge valve? Do a search, not a big job. Located in the drivers wheel arch. I've replaced two over the years in a 172 and a 182
I had them with mine, Unfortunately its crap HID kits, even though I paid pretty good money for my HID4U kit. Their stuff is real crap tbh! No way round it but to get a different kit, i tried everything, moving ballasts, sheilding cables, ferrite clamps, all to no avail
