yea i know, they have said that reason it fell apart is cos of the engine mount, not just cos of the extra pressure on it so in the end its the engine mount that has done the damage to everythin rather than the lowering or world of ice will just b happy 2 b back driving it, and glad...

as u can tell i am stressed out!!! ignore previous reply as u were only voicing ur opinion and tryin 2 help so thanks 4 ur opinions, the reason they have now given makes alot more sense and i am happy with it world of ice mechanic said himself that he was not overall impressed with...

Ok carrying on from my other topic from world of ice lowering my clio i have spoke 2 2 garages/mechanics and they both have said they there is no way a CV joint would just fall apart world of ice rekon it has just fallen apart due 2 it being old and also that afta it was lowered that it put...

Well basically they have said that the CV joint has broken in2 pieces Which means new driveshaft, £121 for driveshaft and fitting And then theres the chance that the passenger 1 will go aswel sumtime, but will av 2 go 4 just drivers 1 first, they r ordering it in now so I’ll get the...

yea but then i have 2 pay 2 have it unlowered, drive 100 miles and argue with the dealer where he will say its wear and tear wont he??? + itll only cost max of £160 anyway, so unlowering and goin 100 miles will prob cost same if not more cheers 4 opinion , who knows eh, will av 2 c...
