tbh there is signs of leaking around the waterpump and always thought it was that, just kinda gave up.
how much am i looking at for a cambelt and waterpump change, its to cold to do it myself at this time of year but ill do it myself if its going to cost a lot
-85mm on 15s
powerflex bushes
cat back system
pannel filter
colourcode
smoked repeaters
de-lock
light tints
if you keep your 16s, get big brakes on it, they look quite small behind them
just some thoughts
Trip computer reseting is faulty dials its a common fault and happens every winter, will be replaced under warranty but no good to you unless you have an extended one?
couldnt tell you if waterpump was done or not mate, but thats a good suggestion will take a closer look tomorrow.
R20 CWH, not sure yet, need to have a good look and see if its just the water pump and gaskets needing done, still fancy this fancy rebuild to do something different but its not...
all ours make the noise (one on 40k, on on 65k and one on 130k) all 1.2 16v engines, (the 2 lower millage ones being the newer style 2004 and on engine) and noise doesnt go away when warm on ours?!
just for the record as mine looks pretty standard in the pics, its not lol heres a list of everything ive done to it...
the cars been built basically to be a fast road 1200 16v thats fun to drive, cheap to insure and i wont kill myself (its my first car)
Chassis:
15" Dynamique wheels with...
take the 2 bolts out on the caliper (well you can just take one out and loosen the other) and clean and lubricate the sliders, you might also have a sticking piston, work the piston right out and back in a couple of times
coolant and oil isnt mixing. oil seems to be coming from rocker cover gasket, not sure where coolants going, might get myself a gasket kit for it and change them all just not really got the time
the more miles it has the faster it is! to be fair as long as its been serviced properly it'll be fine, even better if its had oil changes every 5-10k like a lot for sale here will have had
mine done 110k in the first 3 years and ive put 20k on it in 8 months and they 20k have been hard hard miles of constant hammering and it just takes it like a man lol
its a very nice colour when well looked after, most of them arnt tho so you dont really notice it.
well done mate 100x better and wheels really suit it, what spoiler you got on it? dynamique?
its a 2002 02 Plate, just changed the plugs, oil and filter and cleaned the air filter and replaced the burst cold air feed pipe and it seems to have most of its power back, blowing exhaust not helping tho!
only problem i have with it now is having to fill the oil up every month and coolant...
your suspension cost 3 times more than coilovers that must make you a chav..... :rolleyes:
why didnt you buy turinis, coilovers and have it colourcoded, that way all these people at the other side of the computer that you'll never know or meet who are giving smart arse comments would have...
that looks mint that blue one, one of the nicest here but get the wheel weights removed and get sticky ones put on the inside of the wheel.
ignore anyone that slates you for the 2.0 badges
