Not bad for the money.

An ITG Maxogen is the dogs but its very expensive unless you can get one secondhand on the cheap. For that money i'd get a BMC CDA.

Straightfoward, you'll want a big torque wrench to do the back hub nuts up to 175nm though. You can wind the calipers back in with a screwdriver. http://www.fubarnet.com/rear_discs.html

It should be staying on if theres a glow plug fault, although it could be a duff led in the clocks. Sounds like it anyway, with the cold starting problem i'd say the glow plugs are shot. Don't think they're too expensive to change (never had an oil burner).

My alpine 9887r has the feature for it too, the speed pulse feed is in the power iso connector so any headunit can use it if it supports the feature.

Definetly a bearing of some type, couldn't say specifically which one. Would need the aux belt off really the check for play etc to find out most probably.

Its in the manual! I'm guessing people don't read them :D.

hairy muff then looks like problem solved, at least it seems to be an easy fix.

Don't hold your breath until it been sorted. I can believe it though as that plug that you tried to put the relay in is the alarm interface plug (ish) so you've probably killed something.

not

Its just the type of relays used, they'll always click.

What problem did you find with the pipercross on the motorway? Just being a nosey b*****d.

Think i'd be tempted to try and find another long block at the right price tbh, you could spend £x repairing it and more could be wrong. You don't know what the clowns done with it after this. Or hope the other valves are fine but I can't see how when if one exhaust valve is bent the other one...

Four ashes renault (cliospares) will supply you a throttle body for about £50, its a striaght swap. My old 1.6 went through 3! (luckily all under warrenty) you have to keep them clean or problems will occur.

Yes by the sounds of it.

It won't be a lot and isn't worth it.

Lovely

The increase in power at 5krpm. You shouldn't have to ask by now ;).

Yeah let me know, look forward to a nosey.

Aye looking very good indeed. Well on the way now, you'll have to give me a shout if you ever need a hand with anyway not too far away and I wouldn't mind a gander :).

Thats also what put me off, not knowing if/how the reading from the valver sender was the same as the range needed by an aftermarket gauge. The F7P/R sumps are completely different to F4R as well afaik, the drain plug is at the back for a start but i'm not sure on the capacity differences...

Ah I see coolio, learn something new every day I guess.

I don't think so no. Whats the problem? Too sensitive?

I've thought about the valver/williams temp/level sender but i'm unsure if the level side of things will be calibrated right?

They'll just get worse over time but they will eventually fail which isn't the best idea to let them get to that state. You should be able to find some play in the knackered one(s) if you shake the wheel with it off the deck.

Anthracite ;)

Ph1 maybe, Ph2 not that I know of.

The plastic cam covers let moisture in too. My old 1.2 used to get it and it used to get 100+ mile motorway runs twice a weeks.
