If it was me, in order of cost.
id visually check to see if the linkage had obviously moved positions at each end,
then maybe a fluid change to see if that cures it.
Outside chance . It could be a worn mount above the gbox or dogbone, but would expect trouble in all gears then really.
If...
Finally got it back on the road with fresh MOT after the best part of a year.
It was back in the garage a day later for an unknown knocking noise which turned out to be a part loose hubnut on the drivers front wheel.... Not too pleased about that.
Then yesterday i managed to crack the...
They do as advertised generally, but no gaurentees on engine life as they fool your ECU with fake values I believe.....
I wouldn't recommend one to anyone personally. A real remap by someone with actual knowledge would be better money spent.
Had one on a Mondeo 2 tdci taxi years ago. Good...
Chucked 2 new power steering pipes in the boot along with a new damper, hazard switch and my spare OZ ready for 2 new rear tyres. Keys dropped off at the garage. :)
Cool link. Thx. That one looks well, but I'm interested in a slightly lighter tone than that, I think itd suit a ph1 well with either silver/gold or even bronze wheels depending on your particular style fetish..
Eg. OEM/WRC/JDM n dish :eewww:
Oz f1 would prob look well in those colours too tbh...
Does any know with firsthand experience, if any of the power steering hoses are interchangable between years or the lower spec model of ph1 Clio.?
The aluminum pipe section of one of my hoses has split and I'm seeking a direct replacement or a swappable part from else where. IE ph1 1.2/4/6 or...
So it finally made it to the garage a week later, their fault not mine.
The new damper fitted 4 weeks previously is leaking.
Confirmed pas hose leak (glad its not the rack or pump) ,
Hazards don't work. That's a new one they found on mot precheck.
There's gonna be a half dozen advisories but...
Just to put an end to this topic. Its alive again. Garage found faulty non genuine TDC sensor and also a break in the loom over gbox. Just PAS leak and MOT left now
Can't say I've tried one myself bit from what I've seen of it (which admittly isn't a lot)the new box just has more tuners inside to record more channels at once, great idea in theory but if it's anything like their previous TiVo boxes you'll just end up with 5 times the amount of phantom...

Can I ask why your unhappy with the Ap coils.?
I have been considering them as a possible future upgrade myself for a while. They fall into the, not the cheapest but not £800 -1k price bracket.(Which imo is OTT for my 100% road car)
Sorry to side track the discussion, but I don't often see the...
Secondhand blower would probably fix it. I did same in my phase one, jumped at resistor pack and turned put to be blower motor. There's a few diff blower motor versions so be sure which you need.
Don't suppose you got his reg did you.?
Or part of it.?
Id be informing the police tbh..
Either way, that's truly disgusting behaviour from the focus driver. Needs taking off the roads. It ain't bloody bumper cars...
Yeah, That's a side effect of the odb dongle.
When i turn ignition on normally.
Immob flashes fast for a few seconds, then changes to solid red and the car starts, after about 30 seconds of the engine running the solid red disappears. I think from previous readings, solid red denotes a canbus...

As I understand it, it just sends the keycode directly to the ecu since the transponder round the barrel is knackered.
I lost C.Locking functions and immobiliser was not disabling either , via key in ignition, as I mentioned before, the little dongle didnt fix the CL but did let me drive the...
