Wow! Thats a bit pricey!
Maybe you could settle for a set of four Eibach springs and a set of four Excel G shocks.
The average Mr Simpson should be able to do that job without hassle. Its pretty...
Usually on the OEM style Hitachi battery, the fluid does not need to be topped up during its lfe. Fluid level will become a bit lower over time and acidity increases accordingly. It can be topped up...
That the valve cover was replaced last year is a fact, but that it leaks is also a fact. Maybe the valve cover wasn't put in properly? Dunno! There is not much under the intake manifold that can...
That inner universal joint looks bad. You could try getting an entire complete right side driveshaft as an aftermarket part instead. Costs about 100 quid, but a good deal cheaper than the OEM part.

Nice poster! Those things were called "Mitsubishi Colt" (model A150) over here. They would be somewhere between 35 and 45 years old now. They had a very peculiar gearbox. Four forward gears, plus two...
I can confirm on my 1.0L poverty edition with A/C but without auto-temp or climate-control the "rear warm air exits" are exactly the same as seen in fummins's pictures.
I agree its most probably whipped bs that its supposed to be busted. Somebody wants to boost revenue.
I've taken two apart researching the sticky steering problem. I loosened the crown nut all the...
In total our cars have three hangers. They wear out in time. Holes get elongated and out of shape. Their initial snug fit loosens and consequently noise level rises. They can be either all one sort...
Sorry, don't have any links for that. Much is regarded as common knowledge if you talk to factory workers, and there are many around. HPDCT or HPDC was bleeding edge technology when Kölleda was being...
This car was made 2014 and has roughly 100000km on it. The underside and exhaust was de-rusted and painted when it was young. Since it became 10 years old, I decided to look at the rear brakes. The...
I think that happens when the smallest of cars are on the road.
In these parts a Mirage/SpaceStar is a normal sized car, nothing unusual at all. No idiots overtaking just to turn off immediately...
Similar situation in the EU.
There is a recent requirement for automatic accident-reporting on new cars. A collision sensor going off raises an emergency alarm. This became the norm in almost all...
1.) The uncomfortable driver seat and too far forward headrest is a mild form of torture. Having to extend your head forward of the rest of the body...
Nice to hear you are happy with it.
For me personally it is simply too wide, too heavy, and too much everything else. I prefer the size of a FIAT Cinquecento, or the 1980 Suzuki Swift or 1980...
I'll add my two cent to this philosophical thread.
My 2014 1.0L MT has roughly 100000km (60000 miles) on it. After opening the plastic top cover to check valve play, an impecably clean engine was...
I maintained a few mobile power generators with Kubota 1.5L turbo diesel engines about two decades ago. They were simple but highly reliable. Our engines are far more sophisticated today.
@ grumpy: In the past I've been told being to technical and the topic itself too highly technical and uninteresting for the forum anyhow. Me thinks basic physics and mechanics should be...
The caked-up oil scraper rings and piston lower sections, eg. at 2.23, 7.25, etc, and yet free oil escape holes suggest not enough lubrication with maybe...
As a person that does not want their data sold, I prefer an Open-Source browser. There are plenty of excellent software choices available, and all totally free.
