197 gearstick movement

[Mitchy.b]

When I come on and off the throttle you can feel the gear stick moving a little bit. What causes that?

Just a minor movement when you rest your hand on the gearstick?

If so that's normal... or my car is fucked too

Noting to worry about, but a new dog bone mount will help tighten it up

 

[imprezaworks]

Uprated standard one from powerflex or alike will help

Yeah just slightly. Nothing major like on the 1*2s

 

[Mitchy.b]

Thanks for your help

 

[Mitchy.b]

Don't suppose you lot would no. But my 197 don't have air con or a heated rear screen button?

 

[imprezaworks]

It will surely. Have you a pic of the buttons by the radio

Below the fan switch?

 

[Mitchy.b]

No mate it doesent

I'll get a picture soon of the dash

 

[Mitchy.b]

That's the dash

 

[imprezaworks]

Odd. Nothing below that?

 

[Mitchy.b]

No mate nothing

 

[imprezaworks]

End of the stalk or something. Not having had a 197 im just guessing lol.

 

[Mitchy.b]

Nope nothing there either ahaha.

 

[imprezaworks]

Mmmm lol.

 

[Gaz_]

That's no right


All 197's had AC/Climate unless it was a cup. Yours isn't a cup as it's albi blue

Uh oh

 

[Mitchy.b]

So what the hell is going on? By looks of things there's no air con under the bonnet

 

[imprezaworks]

1.2 dynamique with a sport kit?

 

[Mitchy.b]

Ahaha defiantly not. I'm guna go have another look. I'm puzzled

 

[Mitchy.b]

I'll post a pic of my engine bay. You lot can tell me what's what

 

[Mitchy.b]

Take it that big black pipe is a air con pipe

 

[imprezaworks]

Yep

 

[Mitchy.b]

Found the air con compressor.

 

[Mitchy.b]

Found these tooo!!!

 

[imprezaworks]

Lols

It's had a different front fitted for some reason
Going to hazard a guess. Rear window doesn't work, nor does the aircon. Hopefully wrong

 

[Mitchy.b]

Well I took the Facia off and put the air con on. Ice cold!! So the last few days I've been roasting. I could of had the air con on!! As for the rear screen. I'm not sure

 

[imprezaworks]

Breathe on it and then hit the button fast

 

[welshname]

What on f**king Earth.

Why would someone fit a fascia that hides those buttons?!?!

 

[Gaz_]

Looks like it's been painted to me

 

[Mitchy.b]

Looks like it's a dual zone climate control facia. Not a clue why someone would have changed it tho.

 

[Christopher]

Really weird.
Re the OP, a lower uprated dogbone and an uprated upper torque mount would help.
