Not exactly sure what this is. Perhaps someone can explain before I make an offer.

It could be that the release bearing is worn or does not have enough lubricant so it is sticking and causing judder. The clutch cables could be badly aligned or worn. The worst case is that the flywheel is badly scored. However with the burning smell I suspect the clutch is not disengaging properly.

Eventually got Paint International to mix up some paint. Exact match so I have been able to touch in all the little marks. Not exactly a promising start to MR2 ownership that it is so difficult to get a simple thing like some touch in paint.

Perhaps you could get them to mix me a touch in pen and I will send you the money

Well this one was no where near the shade, It took about 20 minutes and about seven colour mixes and it was still not right. But again they called it Ultra marine.I have since spoken to Auto Paint International who said that it is impossible to mix such a colour on a small scale so they are sending ...

I tried Halfrauds and again a total waste of time. According to them no such colour as Zircon blue only Ultramarine which was far too dark. I will try someone else.

I never look at importers in the UK as you are paying them quite a premium to buy a car. This particular car from Rushcorp would have been around £6200 on the road if you had done everything yourself

This is the first time I have seen one advertised. Just been sold. http://www.rushcorp.com/cars/cardetail. ... um=1801032

On a similar car I once had the fluid was being lost through the heater matrix and causing the passenger carpet to get damp. It could also be a leaky pipe from the engine bay to the front. As these pipes are enclosed they can be difficult to inspect. You will have to pick a dry day to have a good lo...

In all cars the temperature will rise after the engine has switched off. But as your car is a turbo you are supposed the let the car idle for a few minutes to allow the engine to cool down. This is why Turbo owners fit a Timer to allow the engine to cool down properly after running. Indeed it is qui...
