    Erm.... Big bang! Help!

    Cheers Andy. The problem showed it self today. As i pulled out of a junction, was another bang and a clunk, and a piece of the spring fell out! So thankfully found a mechanic who can fit me 2 new springs tomorrow. Was going to get it lowered but ill wait till i can afford the proper kit :)

    Newbie, droning noise, heat shield & passenger door

    Wheel bearing from sound of it bud. I also removed my heat shield and not had a rattle since. Big long flat head screw driver and a rubber hammer will do the trick :) As for the door, that's not a bad price. I was quoted nearly £500 to sort a crappy previous repair out.

    Erm.... Big bang! Help!

    Hey all. Bit of a prob! Driving back from my father in laws today went over a bump and I heard a proper loud clunk noise! Similar to when you drive over something and your tyre pings it away with the pressure. Got home and parked it on the grass outside to take the shopping in, when I went to...

    Suspension?

    Nice one :) Think I'm going to go for just springs. The roads around me don't warrant a nice lower and harder set up lol! Plus once I've done this I want to get a set of wheels. Does anyone know if a set of Rover 25 multi spoke alloys would fit?

    Suspension?

    Hey all, the age old question! I need to lower my car but not long ago I replaced the shocks. Is it better for me to just replace the old springs with a decent set or get a complete kit? Any recommendations on a nice k12 set up?

    BP Optimax.

    Lol thanks for the replies. Unfortunately as stated, it did nothing to performance proving it's just a money making myth. And for 10p a litre more too. Luckily it was her bank and not mine lol

    BP Optimax.

    Hey all, wifes just borrowed my car and said she will put some fuel in it. She's only gone and put BP Ultimate in it. Will this affect the engine or be a good thing?

    Steering issue?

    Nope I haven't yet. But I've got it booked in Monday for a check up. Seem to have acquired a new exhaust rattle that believe is from the heat shield. Anyone know how many the K12 has?

    Steering issue?

    Evening. Just a quick question really. Last few days driving my car the steering has felt really light. No clunks or bangs and the wheels, ball joints, suspension etc etc all feel solid. I know I need to change my brakes as the are now squealing every time I brake. Just hoping one of you...

    Ok. Silly question! Does my car have a variation of different silver's? Reason being is I've just been offered a set of k12 Sr bumpers in silver. Wondering if they will just fit and be an easy job done? Feedback welcome peeps.

    Starting to come along nicely :)

    Hi all. Sorry I've been on here a lot, I've just moved house and the internet is very suspect. Well just a bit of an update. Finally had some time to spend on her. Fully washed, de badged, polished and I decided the original hub caps looked rubbish. Now unfortunately I don't have a spare...
