  1. Decided to give the C a good clean inside and out. Just the inner cv joints and a cambelt change with service and shes all perfect again. Which always impresses me as ive already put 20,000 miles on her in a year


  2. Bit more work done new grill and side repeaters and debadged the back. Plus 2 litre gas flowed throttle body and internally smoothed 50mm inlet manifold with a new jetex exhaust. Goes pretty well now.


  3. thanks for the comments guys and i know what you mean about the grill looking for a debadged one at the moment. The rubbing strips came off easily just pull them off carefully and remove the glue with some fairy liquid and a bit of elbow grease.


  4. Ive had a similar problem on my valver when i lost 5th gear in mild acceleration due to the input shaft splines being rounded off. Luckily everything to do with the 5th gear is on the end of the gearbox and can be got out by only removing the gearbox cover. make sure you have tub to catch the oil and some male splined sockets to undo the selector rod but should be an easy one. My fifth gear is now welded to the shaft and is running stronger than ever.

    Good Luck
