When I was restoring mine, I got 3 out but there’s always one. It was so bad I ended up taking the engine out. A bit extreme but I was getting so frustrated with it I didn’t want to end up butchering it. With the engine out I managed to get a ring spanner on it, but even that was a pain. I...

I’m not sure TBH. Check the yellow dot is lined up on the sensor. Stick the wheel back on and give it a run. Sometimes they can reset themselves, but usually need a diagnostic and codes clearing.

Steering Angle sensor needs resetting. Sometimes it’s also down to the type of steering boss you fit as well.

He said in his post “I can’t take it back to the garage that fitted it as they are 200miles away.” I didn’t see his other reply about asking the chap he bought it from. I misread it.

Looking at no.2, have you checked under car to see if you’ve got oil leaks? I’ve seen LUK clutches go but they tend to be under a lot of stress I.e Trackdays/Racing. I appreciate it’s a long way to go back to the garage, but if it was me that’s what I’d do. Let them sort it out.

Yup. G 4.8 mm x 16mm ALUMINIUM Part number 7703072047

AI transforms work; job impact uncertain.

@Call Me Dangerous Dave previous keeper confirmed they fitted it. It’s off a 172. PMS kit incoming then 😅

Took my original 182 axle down to a lad in the town to get it shot blasted. For £20 it was the best money I’ve spent. I’ve never seen a serial number on one of these before, they’re usually that rusty. The spring pads are in such good condition. The best I’ve seen. Everywhere is just...

Mine arrived yesterday. Hopefully I’ll not need it and should I have no further use, I can always help a member out.

Finally i‘ll be able to say “up yours” to Virgin as CityFibre have now installed new fibre optic cables in my area. It means I have a choice of 8 different providers. I can get 900MB for £29 with no set up fee. I’m currently paying £36 for 125MB. Hopefully it’ll wake the chumps up and their...

There’s one in the guides section but you need to be a member to view them. Best few quid you’ll spend imho

Lovely job (y)

Have a look at the work these guys produce. https://youtube.com/@yorkshirecarrestoration?si=YweQitIXKhSxgIrQ If I was getting any fabrication work done, this is the level I’d want.

I've only really used Bilt Hamber and some Dinitrol products but if a company didn't use those, it wouldn't stop me from using them. They'll all have their preferences anyway. For me, it's all in the preparation. Concerning areas that may not be obvious, these cars are showing their age now...

I've always done my own, but I guess if I was sending it to a repairer I'd be discussing the specific areas that you want treating, what products and methods they use and what sort of warranty/guarantee they provide. I've seen a few cars done locally and they're horrendous. They sprayed...

They’ve got money 💰 😉 As above, if the cars all in order, you shouldn’t have a problem - price dependant of course.

I don’t think the person who buys that car will be worried about what time of year it is tbh. It’ll be outside of most aspiring Clio 1*2 dreamers budgets anyway. Stick it on Collecting Cars or similar publications so you don’t have to put up with the noise, or at least limit it anyway. Good...

I think comedy is like musical taste, in that it can change as you go through different experiences. Shifts in society can also make once-hilarious jokes lose their charm. I can remember watching Billy Connelly on the box and I nearly died laughing. My missus bought me the DVD but I stuck it in...

@Touring_Rob Honestly it's scary how much stuff costs. I probably didn't put my point across too well, but I was trying to give a flavour of what things cost to people in the trade. I still thought I could get a bumper painted for £30 :ROFLMAO: A bin wagon went down the side of the missus...

If you can hang on until the spring, I'll be taking the ones off my new circuit car and selling on. BC DS 9kg/8kg.

£100 to get a rear 182 bumper painted and that’s zero labour and cost of materials. That’s because I work for the company. I got a whole car painted for £1,000. Hopefully that’ll give you an indication of the price of materials alone before you get into labour and profit margins.

Cheers Mark. I had the part number but wasn’t 100% sure. Got one coming. Thank you for the heads up.

I’d also buy one either from you Mark or through SNR.
