I was told by the noise officer that you can make `resonable` noise between 8 am and 9 pm , eny time before that or after ,you where concidered to be a nuiseance.
item number on ebay 230397130961(sorry dont know how to do links) looks like that , take the 2 fixing bolts out and wash it with carb cleaner , my mum s ka was doin the same but needed to change it in the end , cured the fault then ,
Very well explained about the noise Bortaf, i know what i meen but cant expalian very well sometimes (lack of education). We found running atf in the 5 speed boxes cured alot of 5th gear problems due to better lube , but the proper semi synthetic oil would be the right choice for definate .
Unless the beering is really bad then no it wouldnt cause the gear selection probs , sounds more like the 1st to 2nd syncro hud is worn . Just out of interest what gearbox is it , 4 or 5 speed ? and wot oil are you running in it ?
Thanks for that but maybe i should of explained better , i wanted to paint under the bonnet and in the boot area of my mk1 and see on ebay they do a synthetic based paint cheap but only mix in RAL colours so was wundering if there was a RAL colour close enough to modena green to use in these areas , but thanks again modena for takin the trouble to answer
