well to be fair, mine didnt come all the way out, it came out slightly, and the rubber thing popped off, so it dumped all the gearbox oil we just popped it back over and put a new clip on it,

doesnt the battery light come on if the ignition is on and not the battery?? cz mines always on if the engine isnt. does it turn over?? it cud be anything, feul pump, distibutor (or just the cap) crank sensor, or could just the battery getting old.

it does say in the haynes manual BE CAREFUL OF THE DRIVESHAFT WHEN REMOVEING THE STRUT and god knows how many times i said it to my m8 before he pulled it out :mad: its easy to do so jst be very carful n try to support it n ull be fine

i did the exact same thinkg lol, well to be precise my m8 popped my drive shaft out, we kind of want at the job with no idea what we was doing, by tbh, you dont really need that much oil in ur gearbox, we leeked 3l out of 3.5, and it didnt crunch though any gears, needless to say i took it easy...

rears a 5 second job, fronts are complicated, i did mine myself, unless you know what ur doin, i wudnt bother doing it urself, but i wudnt pay a garage to do it, me and my m8 did it without the first clue what we were doing, worked out alright in the end, but he did manage to pop the driveshaft...

Has anyone had any experience with these in reference to the police side of things?? do they turn a blind eye and tell you to take them off? or they like to throw the book at you for it?? thinking of gettin a smallish one, but dont fancy 3points

Ive been told if you have seatbelt pretentioners, and you take them off, then your airbag and service light come on, ive fitted buckets and harnesses into my car, but now am unsure what to do with the seatbelt clips, so theyre currently under the seat, further more, i want to change the...

the bonnet raises came about because i bought a strut brace that was meant to fit 'all clios' like hell did it, it was too high and put alot of strain on the bonnet catch not to mention a small dent in the bonnet, so i fort id jst sling some raisers on there, worked a treat, ahh we all start...
