  1. Hello and welcome Allan.
  2. Iv'e just had my ball joints changed and the car now has the same problem. This never happened before new ball joints. The car used to straighten more than before. Im wondering if this is the proper feeling of the steering and everything is now tight as it should be or as the above poster say's maybe something is over tightened ?
  3. Just started to snow AGAIN. Scunnered with this weather mate. :tsktsk:
  4. I just replaced 2 front ball joints £50 for both, from e-bay and £60 to get them fitted.
  5. No probs Nick, i'll keep an eye.
  6. Read THIS mate and come to your own conclusion, iv'e got the dreaded knock and so has many others.
  7. Could be lower balljoints mate. I had same squeak, changed balljoints and noise dissapeared.
  8. Is it This your after mate ?
  9. Yep, car belonged to member Kris_T, got yourself a really nice, well looked after car mate. Welcome to LOC.
  10. Yes mate the spare does fit. I have the same set-up.
  11. You have to undo the little allen key bolts mate. Just loosen the last one and spin it round so it's easier to put back on. :winky:

    Rear Lights

    Looking to buy a set of dark/tinted rear lights. Thanks, Tommy
  13. Well, just got the car back from the garage, the squeaking noise was the back plate expanding with the heat and rubbing against the disc. The car still feels a bit heavier than before. The steering wheel doesn't spin back to centre when turning. The mechanic said it was because the new balljoints grease was still thick and would eventually soften up and the steering will get more lighter. Is he talking $hite?
  14. The last picture looks like standard ride height
  15. Excellent job in the utility room Kam, very well done. Garage looks great.
  16. Thanks Nick, no mate, knocking still there :tsktsk: think it may be the shock. The car just does'nt feel right after getting the balljoints done. There is also a rubbing/sqeaking sound coming from the front near side. Taking the car back Monday, so hopefully get it sorted out.
  17. Iv'e got the second set ( £94 ) and they sit at a good height, and the ride is not much different from OEM.
  18. Thanks for the reply mate. I live too far away from WIM Tony e-mailed me the proper settings and i found a guy in Edinburgh ( 70 miles away )who set the geo to WIM settings, just wondering if i should pay him another visit ?
  19. Hi mate, try turning the key in the boot ( un-locking it ) then try the lever. Thats for the boot not the bonnet Aww mate, im sorry, i misread your post, i thought it was your boot as Stav pointed out. Apoligise
