    apologies for the late reply. I can't see where the water / moisture is getting in...there isn't an obvious 'hole'......but the effect is it renders the car looking like it has a cataract.

    Hopefully you’ll have more luck than I’ve had with the Prasco projectors. I’m on my second off-side and third near-side due to water ingress......and this near side one is leaky too

    Ultrasonic Sensor

    Apologies for the slow reply. I see someone else has replied with a lot more info than I could muster... I picked up a sensor and mounting clip from a Renault breaker Wigan for £10. I ended up soldering it in as, in my impatience, I couldn’t be bothered to remove all the panels. Alarm seems to...

    "Prasco" ebay projector headlights for 200

    I fitted a pair of the Prasco headlights a couple of weekends ago. The fit and finish is surprising good although I haven’t had chance to compare them to the OE Valeo projector units.....but they certainly don’t look like cheap, dodgy knockoffs. They didn’t come with the front trim that is...

    Broken Coil Spring....and other bits & bats.

    Update - finally got around to replacing the other coil spring, both struts & top mounts.....all knocks, bangs, clanks are gone...!!!! Both of the struts had zero rebound and the top mounts were barely holding together. Also decided to never go near my local garage again.....they had already...

    Replacing 200 Headlamps - Projectors

    aaahh ok....It is as I thought, thanks.......it did cross my mind that maybe there was a projector headlight without cornering lamps available and I'd bought the wrong ones. I had the bumper off a few weeks back to replace the screen wash tank......whilst I did swear 40-50 times, it wasn't too...

    Replacing 200 Headlamps - Projectors

    My reflectors have suffered from water ingress so I've decided to replace with projectors. The project headlamps I have bought have the cornering lamps (....or a space to fit a H7 cornering lamp), my 200 doesn't have cornering lamps. Has anyone else changed their headlamps over..?....did you...

    Broken Coil Spring....and other bits & bats.

    Cheers. I’ve got a couple of typical Sunday DIY related tasks to tackle before I’m allowed any kind of freedom. I’ll be in touch. Andrew.

    Broken Coil Spring....and other bits & bats.

    Many thanks for the offer. I would really appreciate a second opinion. There’s no real rush though, I don’t mind travelling for the advice....if you find a free day. Andrew

    Broken Coil Spring....and other bits & bats.

    Yes, I got new links with the wishbones. Not sure, I think RStuning are the closest in Leeds (?) but that would be a 80 / 90 mile round trip with the missus and kids in tow. I’m not sure it’s practical given the current situation....she protests enough when having to give me a lift to local...

    Broken Coil Spring....and other bits & bats.

    I picked the car up from the garage this evening after having the other side swivel joints replaced, anti-roll bar bushes, arb drop links and both wishbones changed.....no doubt is it a lot less crashy but the clunks are still there. ..hurrah...!!!! So, after the 5 mile drive back from the...

    Hello.....

    No, not the bottom ball joint, it’s the ‘ball joint type’ part that is fitted to the top & bottom of the internal(?) hub. I don’t get any creaking on steering....it’s only over uneven / potted roads (lots of those around here), this is why I’m convinced it’s either top mounts or anti-roll...
