    N/S Inner Steering Rack Gaiter Change

    Hi All, Had a quick search but nothing solid found, how hard is it to replace an inner steering rack gaiter?

    Clio ownership, never a dull moment...

    Yesterday driving home resulted in this, think it's a case of buy cheap, buy twice! Metal has seemed to of... dissolved, anyway, this added fuel to my 'keep the clio as a project and buy an r26' argument... She also reached this milestone on the same day. Still love it to bits though...

    what a 10000 mile wrongly fitted pollen filter looks like...

    pollen filter chaged by previous owner at 77k according to history, so this is what one looks like having been in the wrong way with 10k on (in) it. am i being harsh but its pretty obvious with an arrow near the housing and instructions telling you which way they fit...i probably should have...
