You're exactly right! The aux belt is slack. Think I can navigate the forum now and fix this. Thank you William ?

Been searching the forum but can't seem to figure out what has gone wrong on my 2005 182FF. Recently changed my alternator after it died and all seemed to be going just fine for about a week then today I took her for a spin and I'm sure I felt something go under the car and then could hear a...

Thanks :smile: yeah it is slightly smaller which is nice, also fatter, much more comfortable overall, I love it!

Wheel came this morning, took my time and it took around 3 hours and am very pleased with it on the whole! much nicer as the old had lots of melting and looks crap. Thicker than the old one and I would say a much more comfortable wheel to hold, sits closer than the old one which I think is a...

Been six months since owning the car, new to the forum so thought I would start a project thread to share what I've done and what I will be doing to the car! Its a 55 full fat and just covered 70k miles and is very clean! So far I've replaced the exhaust mounts and standard exhaust for a...

That does sound like something that could be fixed from under the car, I had a look and played with the gear linkages while under and it had noting to do with that and it was originating from the gearbox :confused: Hope you get it sorted! Would like to hear the outcome!

Oh brilliant thank you both very much! :grinning: Thank you both, think you've convinced me! I'll look more into that engine position I'm sure a few have made a thorough guide somewhere on here!

My first post (not sure if I'm posting correctly!) being a proud owner of my 182 full fat! Only modification is a stainless no branded eBay exhaust I fitted recently after the stock was rusting everywhere, quite pleased with it as I was worried I would have regret not getting a branded one, but...
