    Cheap quality Quads with choice of tailpipes

    Hi yeh they're not a bad buy but after fitting cost your heading Tony banks way! Plus I've seen the Ulter system in place and the tailpipes are quite small in diameter quite a bit smaller than originals. :thumbup: I'm looking for wider equivalent to the originals if possible you know you can't...

    Derv engine cleaning ???

    Hi Tony, there are a few tutorials on YouTube and some do use a jet wash but I think it's always a gamble wether or not water is going to get into some electrics. What I did on my wife's Mini Cooper S was to use some oil and grease hand wipes and three hours later a different looking engine bay...

    Timing chain tensioner

    Hi Scott, I've had no problems with my mirrors but I suppose they do creak a bit now and then, as for the timing chain issue I know that when this problem first reared its ugly head on these engines Peugeot were trying to get away with just changing the tensioner on its own as this was the route...

    Questions and Concerns

    Hi engine noise is definitely the timing chain/tensioner/guides which need replacing there are updated parts to replace the originals cost at dealers around £600 to sort so if you still have any warranty left don't get fobbed off and get them to pay either Peugeot or a specialist to replace. As...

    Frustration.....Engine management light and "Limp" mode.

    I've recently visited available car at two sites in the York area and I know they do sell cheap cars but the ones we looked at were either rough or high mileage and I know they have their own workshops where they prepare all their own cars.I must admit I didn't have much confidence in them at...

    Taunton Newbie.

    Yeh nice job! :thumbup: do you know if they just removed the lion to do the front badge area or did they remove the whole fitting? I'm thinking of doing something similar.

    Frustration.....Engine management light and "Limp" mode.

    :o OMG 2 weeks! They're taking the pi**! Like you said swapping the alternator is just clutching at straws sounds like they haven't got a clue :cry: For me it could be that the timing is out it's quite a complicated setup which requires specialist tools to set up whoever replaced the timing...
