Sounds like a blockage in your pipe....

Re: The story of a high mileage 172 will be looking forward to this!!

Re: Bomber's PH1 Today I've... Had a shower... Removed my gearbox... Cleane the engine bay... New water pump and coolant sealed blowing exhaust... adjusted rear ARB... had a shower... Went shopping... Purchased a tent, folding chair and some trainers... Had a shower... Had a BBQ...

all 4 at the same time is the easiest... work from the middle outwards

It doesn't look "as" bad as I thought it would.... I almost think it suits green and blue:S Yep you can get 205 width tyres on a 15" rim, but there not worth the price difference LOL!

I hear urine is also good aswell.. maybe try that next time Dave?

Yeah put new hear oil in when I did the clutch, the noise developed 2 weeks after.

:o w'eally? Its a big lump of greasy smelly metal LOL!?

Do they have / did they use all the correct timing tools?

I rest my case... Why on earth did you take it to a place you describe as "a useless local garage" ?!?!! :S

LOL.... Here we go again! Who carried the work out?

pffrrtt No! Just a standard bearing and seals replace... I am not sure what "upgrade" work can be done on these boxes

My thoughts also... The way you seen most couriers throwing items around LOL! I am not sure how I will get mine transported down there yet... Will find out before the weekend hopefully :)

ahh yeah I will be taking mine out this weekend, may go for a courier.. but the guys are 86 miles from my doorstep, so may even take the box down myself?

Just spoke to the chap at Agency transmissions.. £275+vat for a rebuild, I think it will be going down there :)

ahh the no.15 car, Honda Civic 1800 is my friends Dad.. last name Hampshire :)

It is still on the car... If I can get in touch with the rebuild guy I will potentially remove it this weekend!

Jesus... that is stupidly cheap!! 2 years ago I got a similar bargain.. "clio exhaust manifold" turned out to be a 182 manifold and cat, Which I purchased for the sum of £57 and the guy only lived 30 miles away LOL!

I think that will be the plan! and hopefully the least, cheapest damage possible LOL

My knowledge on gearboxes is.. 0

yes.

The changes feel smooth and precise, as they have always been... Just the whining which changes slightly when on and off throttle..At higher speeds it turns in "woohing" noise rather than whining :S

I am really unsure what to do with the gearbox now... Had a few different opinions from people who have listened to it! 1. mechanic friend thinks it sounds like diff bearings 2. another mechanic thinks it sounds lay shaft (SP) related 3. drive shaft / subframe alignment putting strain on the...

Steady pace wins the race IIRC ;)

A local garage advertises the service for £40
