Yes, it's all gotten extremley silly over there. I really hope Jon doesn't pull the plug but.... but if he does there are alternatives!

I'm still waiting for my free hearing aid I applied for 2 months ago. Very slack these hidden hearing people if you ask me.
Nope I dont need one, I was just bored in work and applied for everything I could think of that was free!
The headphones are cool though, and not a single penny!!

Could you use the cam cover from a 2.0 iron block 16V lump, with the big centre cover to accomodate the unit coils used on later 405 and the ZX 16V/306 S16? Come to think of it, Xsara VTS as well? Doubt there's any difference - would need to check the part number for the cam cover gasket to be sure...

Interesting stuff mate. I made the mistake of using DIII in dads brand new autobox :shock: . As soon as we saw your post on AF We dumped i and put DII in. Having changed the oil a couple of times since the box doesn't seem to have suffered for it, I hope!

I've always used GSF dizzy caps without issue. The last one I got was the real thing too!

It's true to say that that pug main dealers are considerably cheaper for some bits but not all. It's worth asking though, you may be pleasantley surprised!

I signed a couple of days ago. I've also mailed various people in the media and at the beeb. Agreed, but it's it's not just politicians that sleep around rather than run the country, it's certain parts of the media and various people within the beeb itself. Scrapping TG must not be alowed to happen....

Ah, the dreaded DEXRON III! The devils oil! I think most of the issues with the boxes stems from heat. The heat exchanger is crap, I reckon the best way ahead is a proper oil cooler (my ambulance has one and works well at keeping the temp down to a reasonable level). Of course heat and DEXRON III is...

Two things concern me. 1: DIESEL driveshafts. 2: It obviousley will have the ZF 4HP box. I really dont think I'd want to run 160BHP through one of them unless the oils changed every hundred miles. Fine If you dont use the power or revs but run a 4HP at 7200RPM... :shock: Suspect the box will have a ...
