Yeah water pump was my first thought tbf

Sean Edwards is in Solihull and he’s a well regarded Renault specialist.

I’d like to suggest https://www.mndassociation.org/ One of our service advisors sadly lost her husband to this disease. As soon as he was diagnosed, she left work and was on full pay from the company we work for. She would come into work to see us all, and despite everything that was going on...

Yep. Puts the load directly on the bearing and it unwinds itself 👀

The nut isn’t all the way down, so yes it will. But the big problem comes with if the nut has a wear groove where the preload washer sits. If it does, you tighten the nut onto the bearing and not the preload washer. Guess what happens then.

Here’s hoping it’s not been cross threaded then.

f**king hell! Can you spin the nut with your fingers?

130nm is the torque setting. There’s only an image mate, not a video attached.

I may be able to have these bearings manufactured by another well known bearing brand. Always good to know the right people eh!

@Cub. be like

@dann2707 also has a 3d printer - he may well be able to help you out.

I’ve done loads of gearbox rebuilds for Clio owners mate. If you get the box out and ship it to me, or deliver it to me, yeah I’ll sort it.

Well according to google he's still on the go yes. As for any other ideas, I’m not sure what you mean tbh?

No problem mate. 👍🏻

Realistically the costs involved to manufacture a custom bearing would be eye wateringly expensive. And tbh, I don’t want to be the only person that can rebuild this box.

I’ll only supply if I’m doing the rebuild mate. ec12218ub is the SNR part number and the Renault number is 7703090362

Renault part number or SNR number?

Hello folks. Unfortunately I have to inform you that the large diff bearing has become NLA from Renault. The manufacturer of the bearing is SNR and they have discontinued the bearing also. There’s still some available to buy and I have purchased a few, but it’s getting closer now more than...

Drop me a pm mate and I’ll go through it with you.

Well I’d say it’s worth rebuilding, but I would say that as i rebuild them! Lol! But I’ve had boxes shipped to me to be refurbed that have come via FB/eBay and they have been in piss poor condition and in need of refurb - despite being sold as ‘good working order’. You pays your money, you...

You’ll be fine on Cup 2’s then mate

I had Cup 2’s on my AG200 and they’re a superb tyre on the road and on track, but I’m not sure they’d cope with a cold wet UK winter tbh.

Tbh it does sound more like you’ve got clutch problems mate.

Which gears are you struggling to select? All or a few?

You spelt legend wrong mate 😂

If you haven’t watched these or subscribed, it’s worth it. Proper comedy

I have seen synchro rings that are battered as a result of GL5 oil.

3 bottles of MTL is enough for the jc5 mate. If you have a diff, or you do long stints then the MT90 is a better choice because of the heat range it works in. GL5 is too slippery for the synchros, and whilst it doesn’t kill them instantly, it does take its toll on them. MTL and MT90 is a GL4...

Redline MTL is the oil that works best in a jc5.

I’ve already confirmed it with him mate via text 👍🏻 So what you’re describing is the normal operation of the plated diff. If the driveshaft was bottoming out, trust me, you’d know! It feels as though the front of the car is about to fall off. 😂
