ok while the clever people are around... are knocks from actually inside the rack common?? i have a knock when rocking steering.. tie rods have slight play and trackrod ends are actually ok.. could be the tie rods but i think the knock is actually inside?

whats that renault mate? typical being 3 racks... that should make finding pattern ones a laugh. euros do some quite nice lemforder and etc parts.. might have a crack at finding some replacements:S

I need 2x tie rods, 2x track rod ends and 2 lower ball joints for my ph2 172 on an 02 plate.. I have not checked Renault, assuming they are available... Firstly does anybody know Renault prices, but most importantly are there any pattern options available? Obviously not cheap qh s**t.. Any...

Mines on eBay now!

mate had one in an rs turbo.. its a bit grabby, but was used to it within 5 minutes....

thats not true at all.... unburnt petrol will not ignite in an exhaust system especially not on an n/a car.. you would need the exhaust system super heated before pouring unburnt petrol into it would ignite.. it actually leans the mixture off on overrun... and alters the ignition timing so...

possibly retarted timing/lack of power

did you reset the lifters? could have been those holding the valves open on number 4... done it a couple of times myself.. new valves and lapping will mean the valve stems are further up in to the head,,, lifters stay where they were so valves never shut

no parts required new and never used, reprofiled cams RPM Range: 2600 to 7500+ ya all blind!!!

is there an earth on the engine?

christ you lot want to change the whole car!!!! it will all be fine! discs might want a rub down at worst, check all levels disconnect the coil pack and crank for a few seconds is not a bad idea other than that it will be fine,, abide by the cambelt intervals and all will be well

i have all the kit,, and live in essex... im off work next week if you get really stuck.

you dont need a new plug just find the break and join the wire back together

if its been stopped/started/short journeys its quite normal, should oil change it though

if it were me,, i'd have a good measure up,, and refit with another rod and gudgeon pin you will need to make sure all the oil ways in the block are clear and that the pump is not scored from the swarf you will have purists tell you the rods are all matched to eachother in weight but it will...

no mate plusgas and lots of back forth action...not snapped a bolt in a long time! except on exhausts :mad:

what the ratcheting ones??? i've got one of them!! i didnt even know it had a 3/8 attachment on it!

does such a thing exist? i broke my home made effort today (after god knows how many uses) and rather than trying to weld it back together i quite fancy a proper looking bit of kit,, if it does exist,, part numbers? found one in the snap-on/ast catalouge,, but it looks the wrong shape :S...

i dont really get it tbh why not just wire the front sidelights as drl's if you really wanted them,, why go to all the ag of putting them in the indicators??

if it is burning oil,, that will cause it to det!!

not that you would want it,, but can you enable esp aswell then?

might aswell fit a decat between mot's if thats what you are going to go to all the trouble of... sports cats in my personal mot testing experiance hardly ever pass

was gonna say the same,, sounds like all the symptoms link to this.. although,, my one major hate of internet forums.. EVERY post on here is a guess as to whats wrong with your car, including my own.. what bugs me is some people will listen to all these guesses and go through changing...

the car was insured as 2.0 when i owned it... cant comment on now but it was then... i never got round to completing the process changing it on the logbook.. its a very long drawn out process that i was told (by adrian flux) was not particualrly worth doing other than for resale purposes

to be fair i have never heard anything good about amd... other than the fact there car made 30bhp more on there rollers compared to anywhere else which seems to keep people happy

i would counter that they are absolutely fcking horrific!! my car was mapped there and to be fair its not right at all pinks at high revs and wont idle at all (idles under 700rpm) when it was taken back to complain about it they blamed the cam timing twice (which has been checked and double...

ones on my driveway... well and truely dead

yeah i remember you from the rejects forum..
