    Gearbox bearing sound... what are my options?

    Run it until it gets worse. Nurse it. In that time, buy a second hand box off here. One that's either rebuilt recently, or from a trusted seller and have that rebuilt if you want to be sure.

    172 clutch

    If you know what you're doing, you can cut the book time down a fair bit. Even so, Dan's is a cracking price!

    Anyone fitted a parrot kit to a 172

    Top dash off is ten mins work. About ten screws.

    Working with ferraris

    Impressive set of cars, that. Totally agree though, you become numb to seeing this kind of metal day in day out. Takes something pretty special to come into my work to make me take note anymore.

    Auto Finesse Review - Revive

    I have to agree- I always used to use AG stuff. Bought a revive and it's so much nicer.

    Stupid oil question!

    Yep, as long as it's on the dipstick at all it'll be alright.

    Another Fail5port Barg3. I'm in love5.

    Cheers Ant. Loving it more an more by the day. Got four Clio wheels with tyres and four additional tyres in it earlier, no problems at all. Probably could have got the same in again too!

    My bet is you've left something unplugged. Or an earth not bolted up.

    Another Fail5port Barg3. I'm in love5.

    It's lovely and smooth mate. Engine sounds awesome, and pulls a lot harder than it feels like. Put your foot down, there's a gentle surge, look down and it's 80mph, lol. Cheers mate. Progress has been pretty slow TBH on the minter. Just waiting on the wheels coming back from the refurbers, and...

    Lol! I wish I could take a picture of this phone. It's probably one of the most battered iPhones on the planet. Current fleet is: E39 535 M Sport E30 325i Cab 32k mile Ph1 172 Project minter. Track spec Ph1 172 Shed Ph2 172. Need to get shot of four of them tbh. Sensible offers...

    So the missus' sister needs a car to kart the kids about in for a few weeks and could I source a car for them to drive to save renting one. I took this upon myself to buy another car. Total now of five. Fleet, almost. Anyway, this is now my favourite car I've ever owned. A few pics...

    Clio 182 rear shock bolt size

    18mm head, with a flange. Not exactly sure as I've never measured it, but I'd bet at 100mm long and either M10 or M12.

    Jacking Under Wishbone

    I always jack on the subframe bolt to chassis, or the chassis rails under the car if you can get a jack on it.

    The Ferry! E39 530d Touring

    Mine was considerably cheaper, and shitter looking than yours, lol. First job will be to change the ATF I reckon if you said it makes a decent difference.

    Le Mans 2014

    Just some random steel grille purchased from the local steel place and cut to shape. We've got a nice 90' lip spot welded into ours. But some well place nuts and bolts put through would do the samethingto hold it up...

    Chris- you'll want to make up something to fill the gaps at the edges, or you'll lose half of the food down the sides. Lol
