Alrighty then, after much discussion with @NorthloopCup I removed the selector rod (the bit between the shifter and gearbox) and filled it with sand which equated to 240g I then greased all the pivot points on reassembly and took it for a drive, the noise is now 90% reduced, Result I'd say

They're a great mod and how Renault should have sold them from the beginning

It helps, but doesn't stop it from what I've heard

The size of my guns or the rattle? I need constant reassurance.

tops out at 10mph in 1st

Back street garage possibly won't be interested, but any proper mechanic will, there seems to be more shite mechanics (they're fitters really not mechanics) about than ever before, only one I would put my name to in sheffield is Paul Roddison

Isn't that obvious, My huge muscles are acting as a damper

This how the car goes with a gripper diff'ed and 5.25 cwp box built by @NorthloopCup this is setting off in second gear

no4 is at timing belt end incase you didn't know compression test

that video quietens it down a little, you're maybe getting 80-90% of the full experience from that

@NorthloopCup

You could try a few different shore rated polymers, power flex black, purple or whatever colour they're making this week

Yes it is, but the fact that fulcrum point of the stick is below center means to vibration gathers momentum up through the stick I'll get a video up tomorrow, If I can get an Fia sticker for these I recon this is a solution

The rattle is probably the only downside to the PMS shifter so with a seed planted in my head by @NorthloopCup to track it down, this is what I have found this evening, A lot of people say it's the lift up reverse tube, this is not possible as the tube is ''O'' ringed top and bottom The...

Well you'll be able to look at 5th gear! I know you have tried the rod in different positions but that is your problem.

It sounds like this after a while

I wouldn't recommend a PMS in a daily unless you have sadomasochistic tendencies

Standard scenic = sloppy as the clio set up. scenic with yanoo = perfect for daily/road/track car use, Takes around 50% of the sloppiness out. Pure MS shifter = for men only! track use, it will do your tits in fitted to a daily.

I love a bit of disco potato action, Has to be the best name for a turbo EVER!

Having a training course at work this week on defusing situations and de escalating whilst re affirming your authority, I think my work mug says all of this in five simple words.

Barbecue at Jims who's coming?

I went on your recommendation Dan, I used to use track torque at tockwith who are also excellent but I try to support the smaller business' if possible,

Yeah lovely dog. I managed to convince Brad to fit a 5.9L cummins b series truck engine in his 300 tdi discovery too which should be entertaining

I really wouldn't, Have a drive to @bloke on here unless you can find a good garage closer

no, would need to be a bit more in depth inspection, Best take it to a decent garage not a tyre monkey

knackered engine/gearbox mout and the exhaust is hitting the underside of the car or the heat shields would be what i would be checking first

do a leak down test when hot and cold

Have you opened the bleed nipple on the thermostat housing? if thats ok possibly done the head gasket or cracked the head

The missus rang me this morning saying she had kerbed the wheels on the Bimmer, on further inspection she meant destroyed them, Both N/S wheels are knackered, I rang a guy in bradford that could get me some!!! Anyway 4 hours later and hundreds of quid lighter I have wheels, it was in the...
