everything fixed on the brakes. I miss decent pads though, the OEMs have no bite :( On the matter of the steering refresh, and suspension the difference is dramatic. Less tram lining, no dragging of the wheel. And the cooksports are brilliant, they're nowhere near as harsh as I thought they...

I was more annoyed about missing that than costing myself more money to be honest lol

The car is being towed to diamond motors at lunch. Getting air in the ABS pump is not a good trick, and isn't clever. So Mick to the rescue lol I'm looking forward to getting it back after all the work on the suspension though. Should be like a new car. :)

Renault really a crap for design. How the hell your meant to get at the brackets for the steering rack I'm struggling with. I've for the suspension removed both sides for replacement and I'm still struggling. In the midst of a suspension and steering refresh, as you can tell steering rack...

Replaced the ball joints, removed they rack rod ends and the front suspension ready for replacements arriving. Tried to start removing the steering rack bushes. Only the Renault could mount a power steering rack with rubber bushes.its also the most awkward part of a car I've had to work on...

Getting organised for a suspension and steering refresh. Sticking with the current springs, but new shocks all round. Ball joints, TREs and Inners, steering rack bushes. Should hopefully feel miles better when it's done.might get some camber bolts too, as I'm noticing more wear on the...

What got replaced last time it did it?

Sorry to thread hijack paradigm, but in need of some very similar advice! I'm flying in October to Sanford International, holiday was all booked as a package with Thomson over a year ago now, but couldn't book car hire then. They're coming in majorly expensive compared to normal quotes, over...

Not sure if srs?

How much are they at the minute? Seem to be blind on CS?

Brentacre might be worth a bell. The general thing I've heard is insurers that mirror NCB, will only do it so long as there is no chance -both- cars can be on the road at the same time. Edit: by on the road, I meant being driven

It's roughly the same power plant that's in the vectra Vxr. Not known for their reliability iirc.

Uksaabs for a Saab forum if you hadn't already found one :)

Washed it. Found a hand sized patch of dirt I missed after I'd tidied up. Fail. Out with the quick detailed tomorrow morning it is then!

This.

Ballpoint wise, I'm not sure, but think that they only come as a whole hub assembly which are in the region of £200. Brakes wise, if it has the Brembos, they might need stripping down and checking out. The seals can melt (for the pistons), and the pins can sieze in them and be awkward to...

Big rattles from my CL pads. Won't be getting any more for the next set as I think I went a bit OTT for my driving. Bugger all fade on track though. Something's not right with my brakes though now, still not had time to check them after Llandow (they still work but get a bit of vibration and...

Damn all the people nearby getting phase 1s recently. Now I keep looking at Phase 1s :( To sum my 182 up, still waiting for the guy to pay up to sort my scrape on my bumper out, had a miss fire which ended up being water down the spark plug area. Cheap arse ht leads not sealing the top...

Oh dear :( what went? I liking ph1s more and more these days. Although I've been looking at Saabs tonight :o

You bought one again already? Lol didn't think the puma would go that quickly!
