    Whining gearbox

    I paid £270 for all parts and labour, but had to drive 360 miles to Leeds and back to get it done. Anywhere round here would be £550+. Saved me a lot of money driving up there!

    Whining gearbox

    I had my box and clutch changed this morning for possibly the same reason. It's a really annoying noise isn't it! The problem in my case was worn diff bearings, and it's all sorted now :)

    This is what happens when you act the idiot

    I was doing photography work experience with a local newspaper a couple of months ago, and our first job was to take shots of a crash site, but all that was left was glass and a lot of blood smeared all over the road. A Metro with 4 young girls in crashed head on into a Ford Ranger pickup on...

    Tom's Mauritius Blog (attempt 2!)

    Cheers Seb :) Well since the MOT I have had to replace my headlights (broke the reflectors so they were out of balance), so they have been standard. Spend a couple hours yesterday re-spraying the reflectors, and didn't break them this time! Better still, the parents didn't notice me using the...

    Once you've fitted side skirts...

    OK, I'll use those then if I get skirts. I have noticed the points along the sills aren't very strong and bend easily - not sure if that's normal!

    Right, well there hasn't been an update to this in a while, but now there is...! Blown up my head unit, so no more sounds :) Shaved a couple seconds off the 0-60 by removing speakers temporarily, and it's a lot better on fuel! I've found a company in Leeds who will fit me a new clutch kit and...

    Heater blower works on one setting???

    I know it's an old thread, but it's relevant... What do you do when you have this problem? Just replace the resistor card? Tom

    lol cheers for the link joe, but there won't be anything else happening to this car - it's dying now! Gearbox sounds like it could give in any day now. The choice now is to decide between a mechanically OK '96 Nissan Sunny or a Micra gearbox... hmm. About the same price!!

    Replacing gearbox

    Hi, I have some questions for those of you who have fitted gearboxes... Mine seems to be coming to the end of it's life in my 1.0 '95. It's whining loudly in most gears now, and I can't stand it any longer. Question is, what level of difficulty would you say changing the gearbox is? My...

    Hi, I have build websites for myself, a taxi company and a wedding car company, and would like to get them to appear higher up (or even at all!) on google. How does google work out how high you place in searches, and how would I get my sites further up in the search listings? The sites...
