Re: Steering pulling to the right after gearbox replacement but tracking is spot on?? probably got the wrong driveshafts then, there's several variations

Why start the thread then? Sounds like your mind is made up

Re: Steering pulling to the right after gearbox replacement but tracking is spot on?? was the gearbox from the same model? And if not were the old driveshafts used?

all show no go

you're wrong

too low

amps or volts? Battery charges at about 14v but will be down around 12v when the engine (alternator) isn't running.

De-icer on the key turn it a few times to free up the lock

The jack with my 182 was crap with a wee tab on it but the one with my 172 is OK, couldn't get my trolley jack under it the other night as the tyre was flat as a pancake and the car is lowered.

FYI the arch gaps fill with snow / slush and it freezes up, need to clear right around the wheel in this weather or you'll get rubbing ice when steering on lock.

Battery appears to be in good health and is charging from the alternator, diagnosis is just under fuelling due to extreme cold. Blip the throttle to give it some fuel and it splutters into life. -12°C this morning and -7°C just now

Yeah track rods themselves, not the track rod ends. This tightened up my 172 hugely There's always movement of the strut tops from lock to lock it looks really awful but is pretty normal.

Re: will 205/45/16's rub? Lowered 40mm running 205 45 16 v12s fine, far better rim protection than 195s and a great value tyre too

If its vague handling it might be track rods or track rod ends.

What's your symptoms?

182 exhausts hold water check for corrosion, look for oil around the cam cover it leaks VIA the bolts, 182 rear shocks fail quite often look for signs of oil on the shocks. Engine and gearbox mounts can be iffy and cause a banging on hard acceleration, check boot floor for damage as they...

supermarket fuel?

Beast!

Can't say I find them particularly bad in snow, no worse than any other 'performance tyre' from my experience

Collapsed shock? Is the strut top sitting high inside the boot?

Is it a build up of ice behind the front wheels?

Wrote off a v12 on a pothole last night, replacement supplied and fitted this morning for £62.98!

IT joke? SOS for personal computers, very subtle!

It does, you'll need a new airbag though
