    Need Advice!

    Hey! Been thinking hard over the last couple of days....generally over the year ive had loads of crazy ideas ranging from a 4E-FE turbo,ITBS ect to buying a separate track car! Basically Im power hungry theres been sooo many times i wish i could just put my foot down and get out of a certain place/road/situ but cant. Dont get me wrong the FE is amazing...but i feel its time to go for more power!! i have a year to make my mind up and get the car ready to insure for when im 21. so do i........... sell my 5dr and get a 3dr AWD eventually throw a bine in it? convert my 5dr? Buy a 3dr and co

    Abs Light On!

    Just take the tyre off you'll be able to see everything
  6. A new clutch always comes with a new release bearing bit puzzled how you say the clutch has been replaced and not the bearing.....if the noise goes away when you depress the clutch pedal it's usually the bearing that has gone I'd replace the whole lot get a decent clutch kit off one of the traders here, what's your future power goal you may aswell put a clutch in now that will cope with the power oil is 75w90 different if you have a LSD iirc

    Abs Light On!

    All 4 wheels have ABS that's how it works, disconnect the battery take each wheel off and you will see a ring with about 40-50 teeth on the outside of the Cv joint make sure it's clean and all the teeth are there. You'll also see a sensor pointing towards the teeth of the ring make sure it's clean sometimes they get bits of metal stuck on them.....lastly check the wire+plug for the sensor is intact with no cuts/rust After doing all 4 wheels connect the battery and go for a drive it may just be some crap on the sensor etc so best to try this before forking out any coin Asad
  8. Expensive!! 5E-FHE ones offer a ~1mm lift and go for around £100 but the rest cruise etc etc are expensive and rare some guy sells custom ones on tgtt which have fitting problems so id stay away till the issue is sorted. Enzo said something about getting custom ones made up??

  15. The posted question was regarding a FTO, and the answer given was generic If my understanding is right..... 1) ALL cars go thru the BET test first if they pass the following thats it no more testing Fast Idle (2500-3000rpm): CO no more than 0.3%, HC no more than 200 ppm, Lambda between 0.97 and 1.03 Normal Idle (450-1500rpm): CO no more than 0.5% 2) if it failed the BET they go thru a full emissions test which is carried out 2 1/2 mins later: 1st aug 1992 - 31 july 1994? on the database = (CAT) test using the stated requirments not on the database = (non cat) CO can be no more th
  16. i think?? All cars go thru the same basic test, if they pass this then thats it.......if it doesnt pass this within 2 1/2mins another cat test is done which is car specific thats where all the ball ache starts. Have a read second post, here
  17. Yup ^ just the count varies from car to car
  18. It was like that when I booked my test keep checking for cancelations they nearly always come up
  19. Best get that test passed matey, Even after two years of driving I get headace for opening the bonnet to check the oil let alone spend a full day cleaning it and buying parts is a whole different can of beans!!! Have you booked your test?
  20. Have a look at the relays + fuses first then follow the above
  21. 1) Check the fuses at drivers footwell And engine bay (not sure where is tbh) 2) whip the door card off and see if there is power getting to the switch and motor connector 3) apply direct power to the motor After doing that ull know exactly what's wrong, the switches don't usually go unless uve got water in them 90% of the time the carbon bushes in the motor have gone
