Cool in a very geeky way :cool: Cheers mate.
Right, brakes. So Daniel was all like:
And it turns out he was right! Sorted. Noises be gone!
I've ordered the part for the clutch which I'll tackle next week at some point, and I've just won four centre caps on eBay for under £40, so I'm happy...
Cheers all, I'll check for that green stopper tonight Martin. Unfortunately Dan, I've only just found out the problem today! Poor RSI though.
I'll get that one ordered Coops, nice one. I'm also going to buy a Haynes manual :o
Alright guys,
With the help of Coops, I've discovered that my clutch issue seems to be something to do with the ratchet. The issue being that it randomly goes very light and I can't select a gear. A quick yank upwards of the clutch pedal seems to do the trick.
Does anyone have a part number...
Lol at dark chrome. Was just sick in my mouth a bit.
After a quick search on c16v it appears Coops is correct regarding the clutch - looks like a ratchet issue. Sadly, apparently it's a bit of a c**t to fit - nothing that won't beat me and my £20 halfords socket set though.
I can't find the...

Ta.
It's a tough one really mate. They look brilliant here:
And then in certain lights/angles they look really, really dark, like here:
Which I'm not too keen on.
Hmmm.
I really like the clovers, but when I get new centre caps they'll all be going the same colour as the wheels.
Williams wheels in future, but need to sort out other issues first. My sunroof control panel has appeared to unclip itself too, lol!
Ta all. LOL! That was my exact thoughts Chip.
Cheers Coops, I'll mention it to the garage. Do I remember you saying that the ratchet is still available to buy from new?
I'd put the brakes down to paranoia, but there's definitely something up. 100%. Both me or Dan would've noticed it; I'll try...

Cheers guys.
Clutch thing happened 4 times on the way to work this morning as I was driving along, just reached down and clicked it back into place. Really odd. Booked in with the garage next door this afternoon to have a look at that and the brakes.
Indeed!
Welcome along James. I've just done the opposite to you and gone from a Trophy to mk1!
The Sachs are adjustable in the sense that once they have been unpinned, you are able to adjust the damping. You can't lower them like coilovers though, although some have put Eibach Sportlines on...
I'd check but can't get the wheel off. Lol! I hope that's all that it is. Although new pads/bearings aren't the end of the world. It's almost a whistling rather than a drone though, really odd.
I'm going to get to work half an hour earlier tomorrow to have a chat with the bloke that owns the...
It's no problem Dan mate, brakes are weird, they only seem to grind when you're at silly slow speeds. No idea.
Ever since they've started grinding (yesterday) I've been hearing another strange noise. Between 10-30 mph, there's a noise coming from the right hand front. Don't really know how to...
Lol! We'll soon see how I get on...
Jesus. The good news is, the engine 'seems' a peach and most things electrical seem to work. The mirrors have a mind of their own though. I was adjusting the right hand one the other day and f**k all was happening, realised that the left one was moving...
Brakes work, but the pads need doing as it seems to grind at slow speeds. Clutch is a weird one, I'll get it sorted though.
I've also lost a centre cap and fixed (then broke) the central locking. It's all part of the fun.
Lol, I've nearly done 900 miles in it in a week and a half and so far, so good (apart from the brakes).
*Touches closest wooden object.
Have a little faith Dan! Bu'reet.
