My exhaust is hanging down and I'm just wondering what's the best way to get it up into the bumper (after cutting a section out of the bumper for it)? Cheers
Hi I finished doing my head gasket a week or two ago and my car is a bit lumpy when idling now, not sure what it could be? Was thinking timing? But it runs and starts fine. Cheers
My car is leaking and I've had puddles in the passenger footwells and in the boot with the spare wheel, but the roof is only wet at the front on both sides (see pic) was thinking sun roof...
So after doing my head gasket I've been driving my car around for a day and the aux belt snapped. Best place to get a kit? My fault as I didn't think to replace it at the time
Hi all, just a quick question I'm replacing the head gasket and when tightening the new bolts it says to angle then 97 degrees + 2 degrees so how much overall do they mean?

Can't seem to get in any cleaner than this, any ideas?

Is that clean enough?
Better pictures of head, just want to make sure everything is normal?

Doesn't look good to me?

I've got the head bolt sequence in my Haynes manual for my 1.4 8v MK2 but just want to double check I've got it right.
If your looking straight at the engine from the front of the car will it be this?
10-6-2-3-7
9-5-1-4-8
Just like to double check, cheers
I'm changing my head gasket so I've obviously removing the cambelt, everything is removed but I can't undo the bottom nut on the wheel that the alternator belt goes too? Any help or advice on how to do it please?
I'm replacing my head gasket on my 1.4 8v and I started stripping it down, alternator, inlet and exhuast manifolds, throttle body, fuel injectors etc is all off! Next job is the cam belt, difficult or easy job? Also what other parts to remove are there before I can reach the cylinder head? Cheers
Replacing my head gasket on clio mk2 1.4 16v and each head gasket set seems to be different so what gaskets do I actually need? I already have the head gasket but I was advised to get a gasket set. Any help would be great thanks

Hi i have a clio mk2 1.4 16v and for ages now it will cut out while im driving and the engine becomes very lumpy to drive. also now everytime i start it it will cut out as soon as i tap the throttle, i have to put my foot down very slowly to keep it running and it sounds like it wants to...

recently bought some paint from halfords which matched my paint code (NV432) the paint i got was Monaco blue but did a quick search and people are saying my code matches up to Methyl Blue, which is the correct colour?
Thanks
