The chassis legs should be about 10 inches or so behind the sills.

Do Mk3s have two chassis legs running back from the front like a Mk2? Thats always a good place to stand the front on them, rear you can go either the rear beam or jack the beam and stands on the sills if you need to drop the axle etc. And you should always use stands if your getting underneath it.

A torsion beam and a torsion bar to two different things.

Yep mine is 7300, haven't looked at the laptop but the limiter comes in at 7500 on the gauges.

The standard map does that anyway but obviously with only a 7250rpm limit. Mines more like 7500rpm than 7800 like the GrpN map but thats just a 98 ron map as there isn't a GrpN map for my ecu version.

Doesn't usually. ECU should be fine.

Yep it'll be a Ph1/2 D4F engine they all suffer from this big time.

Doesn't sound overly promising, don't think you'll be able to draw any conclusions without taking the box off tbh.

Can't see why a clutch shouldn't see 85k easily with "normal" use, if its the gearbox then it could be the input shaft seal. It went on my 1.6 but it just made the clutch slip I could still engage gears no problem, you have to split the box to change it which is a pain.

60 00 073 668 Exhaust clamp doesn't have a part number, its just whatever the stealers have at the time.

Nope, you've got rid i'm assuming?

Because they're two completely different things?

The proper magnex center section has an adjustable sleeve at the front of it so you can adjust it to fit either a Ph1 or Ph2, trouble is it needs an inch extra cut off it to get it in far enough to fit a Ph2 properly or it'll hit the axle.

Back are, fronts are too I think. Won't really give you any great benefit though, better off with some eibach prolines as I imagine the dampers are tailured to suit the cup springs.

Alarm, Window Eteching, Locking Wheel Nuts on a proper UK car. Mine doesn't and its fecking irritating, a few UK cars have it due to renault parts bin syndrome.

Yep use the isofix bar bolts.

One piece imo, bit more of an effort to get it in (not much more) but less worrying about it blowing etc.

Upper Left Mount: 60 00 073 669 Upper Gearbox Mount: 82 00 089 697 Dogbone Mount: 82 00 103 802 Gearbox to Subframe Mount: 77 00 795 688

Hes not far from me so i'm coming over to be a nosey b*****d. Can have a gander for you, get thinking lol.

I'll have a look for you tomorrow if you want? Coming down for the bonnet then I hear?

Later cars are using the turbo head casting which is the rougher one though.

Knock sensor? Looks like the screened cable they tend to use.

Don't bother with one, the gearbox doesn't like shifting quickly and you'll only kill it quicker. They're a receipe for a dead box imo.

I'd change the dogbone first, then the others if it doesn't sort it.

Time to find a new BE/engine now imo.

Yep 182 plenum as said and dialogys agrees, has the extra inlet for the carbon canister which the Ph2 172 doesn't have. This new or something out the archives? lol

The LED down by the gearstick will blink x number of times to tell you what tripped it.

Its Iceberg Silver and it'll be there unless someones taken the oval plate sticker off. If you search you'll find the code posted on here somewhere anyway.

You need to cut an inch or so off the cat flange sleeve so get it to sit right on a Ph2, I swear they'd never seen the car when they designed it.
