Sounds like thats what i need to do, whats the best way to access it?

Yep while stationary... but also when moving slowly i.e. reverse parking.

Hi all, so I've had my 197 for about 3 months, and loving it, however it only gets used about twice a week. The rest of the time it sits in a car port, so it is subject to the elements unfortunately. Since the temperature has dropped recently i'm get a load of noise coming from the...

So i may aswell just get my current ones sprayed by the sounds of it?!

Welcome to the most fun on 4 wheels (under £10k) :)

The go car warrenty prices look good, they were very upfront with me and said due to the level of modifications the underwriters would probably worm out of any claim! If my car wasn't modified i would of gone with them hands down.

Great, I asked TwingGeeko on here who apparently is the man to buy from and he informed me that it won't cover the cup spoiler holes but if you guys have done it then great. Where dis you buy yours and who did you get to spray it? To anyone that wants the cup spoiler. Yes i will sell...

What did you seal the holes with?

Hi guys, Aware of all the gearbox issues on 197's, if i'm test driving one, how will i know it its on its way out? Can i assume that it will just be hard to engage and crunch into gear, or is there anything else i should look for? Is it certain gears it will struggle with, or will it be...

I had a look and they have better options still for less money than warrenty direct. Although on further inspection, they don't seem to cover cars with mods, which is worth knowing.

I'm looking at this myself and have just found what looks like a ridiculously lower price on www.gocarwarrenty.co.uk. If you want gearbox and other standard things covered its only £99 a year! Looks good but check it out and let me know if i've missed something?

Hi all, So i'm picking up my 197 this weekend ( buying off a fellow 197.net member Az110880). I'm looking at getting an aftermarket warranty on the car as i'm one of those guys that worries and with the gear box issue it could be well worth while if a problem arrises. I've seen people...

Hi all, Picking up my new 197 this week, its had an MOT this week where it passed but with two advisories: 1. Slight play in the n/s front anti roll bar drop link 2. Slight play in the o/s lower ball joint Overall commentary was good and in relation to the above issues , mechanic said...
