    Resonating- thought it was from the exhaust but maybe not...

    Have had this for a few months now, only under load (ie accelerating, not cruise) It's absolutely driving me mad. The garage that fitted my cup suspension thought it was something rubbing the exhaust. Took it to PipeWerx (great guys, if you're in the NW they're one of the best) but they...

    197 specialists in Merseyside?

    Guys, I'm getting loads of knocks from the front end. Garage can't find anything other than a little play in steering rack ends. i have worsening rattles from both sides (front) over speedbumps and rough surfaces, but, more worryingly, and odd clatter from what sounds like back of the engine...

    Standard 197 rims - any benefit or detriment 225/45/17?

    Chaps, other than the slightly lower prices of 225s compared to 215s, and marginal increase in tread width, are there any particular pros or cons of 225s over 215s? Do 225s fit ok? Thanks :)

    Steering Rack

    Mine has been getting noisier recently, had assumed it was the ball joints but friendly mechanic checked the whole front suspension over and the only issue he could find was the rack, which he thinks he can fix, so its going in next week. I do, however, now have a really annoying vibration...

    Exhaust manifold flexi's.

    I've just had mine done at pipewerx- to replace both flexis, including removal / refit, which took about 8 hours- cost £260. I could have done without it as it was only a week after I bought it, but I wasn't unhappy with the price. Looked a pig of a job.

    How do I get the Cabasse Auditorium out

    Without removal keys? Can I unclip the panel and get at it from there? I've been looking for a YoTube vid as I'm crap at this sort of stuff, and it's a bit chilly to venture outside until I know how to do it! Thanks :)

    What bulbs (lamps) for main beam?

    Was planning on using these for the cornering lights and these for the sidelights. Not sure what to use for main beam, just want it to all look the same!

    What bulbs (lamps) for main beam?

    Hi all, Changing the side light bulbs to LED's as they look real yellow beside the HID's, and was considering changing the main beam and cornering bulbs too. What do I need, and would you go for LED's for all of them? Not sure if LED's are any good for main beam- if not, what should I use...
