99% will be the long drive shaft support bearing loose. try tigtning the inch bolt best way to check is to have it in the air get a mate to rev it so u can hear it, as it is making the noise, grab hold of the drive shaft and "hang off it" that should stop the noise, if it does theres ya p...

just an idea about the spare bulbs, i'm thinking its pretty useful to have at least one spare, is it worth a suggestion of HID Kit + 1 spare bulb = £145 as a group buy ?

Saw a purple/blue esprit giving it some from the lights by the bingo hall followed by a red mk2 with some nice alloys ( what were they ? ) looking as though you were about to give it some too !

Leeroy I didnt realise the clutch bearing was a common problem, it sounds as though thats worth looking at then. Thanks for that, cheers Nick

reving out of gear, ok yes - the car is stationary, and if you snap open the throttle to about 2.5K, the noise is most noticeable then.

When moving along its only noticeable off load, and slow speed - say <25mph .

Do you have/had a similiar problem ?

yes, it could well be the clutch release bearing - but think for the mo will persevere with the driveshaft bearing , since the fact the jack underneath stopped the noise tends to point to this bearing. Just wondering really anyone who has replaced / or adjusted this driveshaft bearing what their exp...

rev3 turbo, really nasty metallic rattle when reving the car out of gear and also present when driving along in gear - most noticeable off load. Checked almost everything for loosness ! Took all heatshields off, refitted. Removed all drivebelts not this. Garage diagnosed valve clearance's so they we...

Hi - thanks for all replies, it seems this topic has been mentioned before in Anna's link, but useful link for bublewrap and it seems parcel2go looks like it could be the best bet.

Cheers

Dont know if this has been discessed before, but i've recently been looking at postage costs on some body panels i'm selling. I thought well none of these parts are particulary heavy, eg: wings / bumpers etc . - so had a look at parcelforce costs as a starter. It looked like upto 10kg on a 48hr serv...

Ok, off the top of my head , GAIN is set to 10. Then the boost percentage is set to 52,54,56,58 ( 56 is approx 16psi on my modded rev3)

Limit set to 1.10 ( 1.12 ?? ) with a -4 reduction. and scramble is set off.

in addition, another way is just to use the standard jack on the sills just enough to get your trolley jack underneath then up you go !

but pulleys would give the neighbours something to watch

well ............... had a look for a reset, but doesnt seem to be one. 4 wires, two to the solenoid and two power ( switched by the ignition ) So all settings must be stored in eprom. So next stage, wired up an LED to the solenoid to check it was being driven. The result - yes it was ! AND ..... bo...

aww ... Gordy thats just what i was going to say ! :wink: For me its the satisfaction of recognising an area that you woul like to improve, then doing all the research on it ( via this forum ! ) then the satisfaction of doing the job yourself. Moneywise as others above have pointed out, its not nece...

yes RC - that is indeed a nice dash ! good job. =D> About the starter buttons, am i missing something - but if you are driving along and your passenger says what this ...... PRESS ! If you added one more relay that effectively isolated the engine start button - once running, this would be then a foo...

Thanks Tim, good idea - will try that see if it works, will post result.

Hia, have a blitz dual sbc controller which WAS working perfectly upto yesterday ! and yet today ............. even though nothing has been changed it is now only boosting to standard pressure ( 14 psi ? ) Connections seem good, power is there - unit powers up ok. boost connection hose looks ok, and...

Hi folks 1) Does it use a standard gasket for joining the cat to to the front pipe? (definitely dont want to use paste) 2) Does it hang in the standard place or do you need extra bolts, hangars etc as the one I've got my eye on just appears to be the exhaust itself? Ok, as a 'blueflamer' ! from wha...

hia, not really sure where it was fitted, since it was the chap before me that had it done. But i might well call and ask Nige for his advice, maybe he's had this before, and its a well placed tack weld will sort the exhaust rattle ! Its running good (except for a rattle {which may not be the exhaus...
