You do realise the engines have no differences...

Sorry yeh, I was referring to it being a replacement rollerbearing effort. Turbo dynamics have a good Reputation for getting out of warranty claims.

I wouldn't spend less than £700 on a new turbo!

Buy cheap buy twice. I bought a cheap gt2871r and it s**t itself after 3k.

Or mike from MWM...

Re: Spax quality issues seemed to have been brushed under the carpet..... How stran Legal is certainly a potential way of resolving it. Look up sales of goods act, "fit for purpose and last a reasonable amount of time" is a quote that you'll be able to use.

I can always offer my services ;)

Or could be the centre bearing on the drive shaft if running the 2'piece shaft setup

Are you able to spin it and it carry on for a while? What turbo is it?

If its roller bearing its a new CHRA. You can't refurb them

If its a roller bearing turbo there shouldn't be any play.

Funnily enough I really like that too.

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio Have to compare them to the cup ones. Some are longer and I cannot for the life of me remember which is which. As you know some pikey c**t has worked on the cup before I got it and made a complete hash of it.

It'll be the speedo sensor.

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio I want the spare drive shafts

Have you got it on in the correct order? I've never had an issue with the Alt dropped forward.

I offer to change the water pump at no extra labour cost when doing cambelt and aux kit, just explain its £50 now or should it fail it's £200 kind of job. I've had a few where the water pump is starting to feel rough now.

I did one or 2 ph1's without removing the bumper. Then did a ph2 and removed the bumper and light and never looked back.

I've had a few in recently that the alternators have been draining the battery.

I also remove the 13mm bolt at the top of the alternator. This allows it to move forward by about an inch. It can be done without doing this but for the 15 seconds it takes I do it.
