Huh?

Yeah its the Same mate, water pump started leaking about 2 weeks ago aswell. I'd always put a water pump on when the cambelts being done, hardly worth stripping it all out again a few weeks later if it starts getting noisey. Doing it in a fortnight need to borrow the timing pins from work

Have you tried putting it in gear and you and your mate rocking it forward/backwards? When you actually going to get the starter from a scrappy, hit it really hard with the hammer - if your getting a new one it can't hurt if it works.

Clean the earths mate

Do you get new seals when you replaced the sunroof? And do the 10mms up tight enough? But not FT. Plenty of silicon sealant aswell :approve:

Edde do they come 'ready to fit' on PH2's or are were they just the shoes when you fitted yours?

Shouldn't need to replace them for years, my brothers RT has about 100k on the clock and the original rear shoes are only about 20% worn. Matt - they wont need replacing after 20k mate, more like 120k *Edit* You should check em around every 36k, and while your at it give them a good clean...

Most likely your water pumps carked it, usually go around the time the cambelts due. If you can see the area, look for little 'crystals' below the pump/belt area

Cheers mate got it

You'll put it all back together and chances are it'll start to rattle sooner or later (like a bearing they are - if that makes sense) best to change them when the belts off.

Jon you got any links to that kit mate? Or know where you can get it?

60 - 100 seems to take an age. Would it have gone more Harry or didn't you want to push it?
