I fear i may need a bottom end rebuild soon and i am currently looking at ways to save some money to do this. Im just not happy with the engine and its starting to feel rough but doesnt smoke. I know a few of you have done a bottom end rebuild and i was just wondering where you have got your bits fr...

They look awesome mike, top choice and cant imagine anything else suiting better now seeign them on and to think i wasnt sure before.

I changed the ECU, idle control valve and airflow meter from ones from my dads car and it is still losing power now and then. Its an intermittent thing, sometimes the power will kick back in mid acceleration and the car will move quicker, other times it will go fast, others just average. What else s...

My friend from croydon was back home over the weekend and said he spotted a Black 16v outside his nans, assuming thats in croydon too, was it you? He said it wasnt as clean as mine... whos not washed their car in a while?

The fans DO stay on after the ignition is turned off dont they? thats how i noticed they were always on as after id turned the engine off, and got out i could hear the fan on. Not sure if theyre all like this or whether mine has been wired so, havent used my dads in a while or hard enough recently t...

No matter how long the drive, when i stop, the car always has the fan on and the temperature seems to get quite high in traffic very quickly, what is normal running temp supposed to be around? its just below 90 on the bottom dial (thats the water temp, right?) under the bonnet seems to be very very ...

Started off learning in my dads 16v and so my first car had to be a BX, a 1.6 TXS. Next car was a BX GTi 4x4 which i still have but had to put off the road because i was off to uni and couldnt afford it.
