    Cars weeping washer

    Mine is always dribbling out from underneath the nozzle. Took the spoiler/wing off yesterday to see if the pipe had split or anything and all looked good. I've just come to accept it as part of the car, it is annoying when it leaves a dirty great water mark down the back window though.

    Rear Exhaust Mount Bolt Spinning

    Sorted it in the end. There seemed to be no access what so ever to the back of the middle of the three bolts with the mount in place. I Removed the exhaust from the mount, removed the two bolts (front and back) and span it round. This allowed me to get a hacksaw blade in to cut through the bolt...

    Rear Exhaust Mount Bolt Spinning

    Hi Guys, Recently bought the powerflex exhaust bush that pushes into the standard mount. Went to unbolt the exhaust mount and the centre of the three bolts is just spinning now after some considerable force. Im guessing there was a captive nut welded on the back that has snapped off leaving me...

    washer blanks

    I've been looking for these also, and the sky high prices for genuine blanks has got me wondering how hard it would be to make a 3D model. I remember a chap on here made a thread about making OZ centre caps using https://www.3dprint-uk.co.uk/ , looks a quality service.

    Gears feel 'Blocked' when downchanging?

    Car is coming up to 80k soon with no history of a clutch change. Is there no way to adjust the clutch cable? Seem to remember some method of disconnecting the clutch end the of the cable, giving the clutch a few pushes then reconnecting?

    Gears feel 'Blocked' when downchanging?

    In that case i'll probably just change out the gear oil as theres no record of it and it cant hurt, and continue to blip the throttle on down changes! Cheers guys

    Gears feel 'Blocked' when downchanging?

    You can blip the throttle up to what i guess would be 'rev matched' engine speed with the clutch fully depressed and only then itll slide in effortlessly. If you're say changing from 5th to 4th/3rd for a roundabout, without blipping the throttle youd have to wait for a significant decrease in...

    Gears feel 'Blocked' when downchanging?

    Hi All, Just a quick question really, when changing down gears it feels like they are literally blocked off until you rev the engine a tad and the gears slide in a treat. My first car was a 1.2 8v which did the same. Is this a clio thing or a sign of problems to come?😂 (Evol...
